"One recent afternoon at 200 West Street, Goldman Sachs partner Padi Raphael was walking a client toward the elevator at the bank's New York headquarters when the doors opened. Out stepped Goldman's chief data officer. The timing couldn't have been better. The client had been asking for the chance to meet him. It also meant Padi was coming face-to-face with the coworker she calls her "best friend": her brother."
"What makes the moment at the elevator so unusual isn't just that Padi and Neema Raphael are siblings. It's that both have risen to become partners at Goldman, placing them among roughly 500 people at a firm of roughly 49,000. They now steer parts of the firm that are essential to its future. Padi, 47, is the global cohead of the third-party wealth business at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, having built her career in markets and client-facing roles across Europe and Asia."
Padi and Neema Raphael are siblings who both attained partner status at Goldman Sachs and now lead critical parts of the firm. Padi, 47, coheads the third-party wealth business at Goldman Sachs Asset Management and focuses on broker-dealers, private banks, and investment advisors to attract wealthy clients. Neema, 44, leads hundreds of engineers building the bank's data and AI systems, a core element of Goldman's artificial intelligence strategy. Their careers largely ran in parallel across different divisions and continents, and a chance elevator encounter highlighted their recent convergence into the same office.
