20 分钟The global economy has shown impressive resilience over the past year,
but questions about economic policy and technological innovation are becoming increasingly urgent.
So where are the risks and the opportunities in this environment?
I'm Allison Nathan and this is Goldman Sachs Exchanges.
Today I'm again sitting down with a very special guest, David Solomon, the chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs.
We'll talk about his views on economic growth and markets,
the firm's strategic priorities and what he's most focused on in the year ahead.
David, welcome back to the program.
Thank you.
Glad to be here with you.
So David, we have had this annual conversation for several years running now,
but I must say this seems like a particularly interesting time to be the CEO of Goldman Sachs.
There are what looks to be a lot of tailwinds to the economy and markets and substantial optimism,
of course, with the new Trump administration coming in.
And there seems to be a lot of optimism that he's going to usher in a friendlier environment for businesses.
But the unknowns also seem unusually large.
So let me first ask how you would characterize this business environment.
Well, I think you did a pretty good job characterizing this business environment.
It's going to be more constructive than it has been the last few years, particularly on the regulatory front.
But there are a range of significant policy areas where this administration is ushering in change.
