Internal Governance and Control at Goldman Sachs: Block Trading Case Solution
Even though this case particularly includes the block trade issue and its valuation, even then, actual issue has to do with the decision making and supervision procedures used to arrive at a cost that's suitable for Goldman Sachs and the customer.

Goldman Sachs' choice and management procedures are based, on faith, at root, so the question becomes whether and how a culture based on faith is scalable.
This is just an excerpt. This case is about STRATEGY & EXECUTION
