Division Of Investment Management

Big bank. It has many divisions. Investment Banking. Brokerage. Sales and Trading for Institutions. Estate Planning. And so on. And then there's a division that actually manages money. Like...Goldman Sachs is all of the above—and they have GSAM, which manages money rather than just moves it, taking a commission along the way.
