ABOUT GOLDMAN SACHS (INDIA) SECURITIES PRIVATE LIMITED
The bank is one of the largest investment banking enterprises in the world and is a primary
dealer in the United States Treasury security market and more generally, a prominent market
maker. The group also owns Goldman Sachs Bank USA, a direct bank. Goldman Sachs was
founded in 1869 and is headquartered at 200 West Street in Lower Manhattan with additional
offices in other international financial centers.
HISTORY
In 1917, under growing pressure from the other partners in the firm due to his pro-German
stance, Henry Goldman resigned. The Sachs family gained full control of the firm until Waddill
Catchings joined the company in 1918. By 1928, Catchings was the Goldman partner with the
single largest stake in the firmOn December 4, 1928, the firm launched the Goldman Sachs
Trading Corp, a closed-end fund. The fund failed during the Stock Market Crash of 1929, amid
accusations that Goldman had engaged in share price manipulation and insider trading.
MID-20TH CENTURY
In 1930, the firm ousted Catchings, and Sidney Weinberg assumed the role of senior
partner and shifted Goldman's focus away from trading and toward investment banking.
Weinberg's actions helped to restore some of Goldman's tarnished reputation. Under
Weinberg's leadership, Goldman was lead advisor on the Ford Motor Company's IPO in
1956, a major coup on Wall Street at the time. Under Weinberg's reign, the firm started
an investment research division and a municipal bond department, and it became an early
innovator in risk arbitrage
In the 1950's, Gus Levy joined the firm as a securities trader, where two powers fought
for supremacy, one from investment banking and one from securities trading. Levy was a
pioneer in block trading and the firm established this trend under his guidance. Due to
Weinberg's heavy influence, the firm formed an investment banking division in 1956 in
an attempt to shift focus off Weinberg.
In 1969, Levy took over Weinberg's role as Senior Partner and built Goldman's trading
franchise once again Levy is credited with Goldman's famous philosophy of being "long-
term greedy," which implied that as long as money is made over the long term, short-term
losses are bearable. At the same time, partners reinvested nearly all of their earnings in
the firm. That same year, Weinberg retired from the firm
Another financial crisis for the firm occurred in 1970, when the Penn Central Transportation
Company went bankrupt with over $80 million in commercial paper outstanding, most of it
issued through Goldman Sachs. The bankruptcy was large, and the resulting lawsuits, notably by
the SEC, threatened the partnership capital, life, and reputation of the firm. It was this
bankruptcy that resulted in credit ratings for every issuer of commercial paper today by several
credit rating services. Under the direction of Senior Partner Stanley R. Miller, the firm opened its
first international office in London in 1970 and created a private wealth division along with
a fixed income division in 1972. It pioneered the "white knight" strategy in 1974 during its
attempts to defend Electric Storage Battery against a hostile takeover bid from International
Nickel and Goldman's rival, Morgan Stanley.This action improved the firm's reputation as
an investment advisor because it pledged to no longer participate in hostile takeovers. John L.
Weinberg (the son of Sidney Weinberg), and John C. Whitehead assumed roles of co-senior
partners in 1976, once again emphasizing the co-leadership at the firm.
21ST CENTURY
Goldman Sachs purchased Spear, Leeds, & Kellogg, one of the largest specialist firms on the
New York Stock Exchange, for $6.3 billion in September 2000. In January 2000, Goldman,
along with Lehman Brothers, was the lead manager for the first internet bond offering for
the World Bank. In March 2003, the firm took a 45% stake in a joint venture with JBWere, the
Australian investment bank. April 2003, Goldman acquired The Ayco Company L.P., a fee-
based financial counseling service. In December 2005, four years after its report on the emerging
"BRIC" economies (Brazil, Russia, India, and China), Goldman Sachs named its "Next
Eleven" list of countries, using macroeconomic stability, political maturity, openness of trade
and investment policies
In May 2006, Paulson left the firm to serve as United States Secretary of the Treasury,
and Lloyd C. Blankfein was promoted to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. In
January 2007, Goldman, along with CanWest Global Communications, acquired Alliance
Atlantis, the company with the broadcast rights to the CSI franchise.
On September 10, 2018, Goldman Sachs acquired Boyd Corporation for a Leveraged
Buyout of $3 billion.
On May 16, 2019, Goldman Sachs acquired United Capital Financial Advisers, LLC for
$750 million cash
Goldman Sachs will, among others, rely on Core Card, a card management software owned by
the Fintech company Intelligent Systems Corporation.

MORGAN STANLEY INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED
INTRODUCTION
The current Morgan Stanley is the result of merger of the original Morgan Stanley
with Dean Witter Discover & Co. in 1997. Dean Witter's Chairman and CEO, Philip J. Purcell,
became the Chairman and CEO of the newly merged "Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Discover &
Co." The new firm changed its name back to "Morgan Stanley" in 2001 The main areas of
business for the firm today are institutional securities, wealth management and investment
management.
OVERVIEW
Morgan Stanley is a financial services corporation that, through its affiliates and subsidiaries,
advises, and originates, trades, manages, and distributes capital for institutions, governments, and
individuals. The company operates in three business segments: Institutional Securities, Wealth
Management, and Investment Management.
HISTORY
Morgan Stanley traces its roots to J.P. Morgan & Co. Following the Glass–Steagall Act, it was
no longer possible for a corporation to have investment banking and commercial
banking businesses under a single holding entity. J.P. Morgan & Co. chose the commercial
banking business over the investment banking business. As a result, some of the employees of
J.P. Morgan & Co., most notably Henry S. Morgan and Harold Stanley, left J.P. Morgan & Co.
and joined others from the Drexel partners to form Morgan Stanley. The firm formally opened
the doors for business on September 16, 1935, at 2 Wall Street, New York City, just down the
street from J.P Morgan. The firm was involved with the distribution of 1938 US$100 million
of debentures for the United States Steel Corporation as the lead underwriter .
The firm also obtained the distinction of being the lead syndicate in the 1939 U.S. rail
financing. The firm went through a reorganization in 1941 to allow for more activity in its
securities business. The firm was led by Perry Hall, the last founder to lead Morgan Stanley,
from 1951 until 1961. During this period, the firm co-managed the World Bank's triple-A-rated
bonds offering of 1952, as well as coming up with General Motors' US$300 million debt issue,
US$231 million IBM stock offering, and the US$250 million AT&T's debt offering.
Morgan Stanley credits itself with having created the first viable computer model for financial
analysis in 1962, thereby starting a new trend in the field of financial analysis. Future president
and chairman Dick Fisher contributed to the computer model as a young employee, learning the
FORTRAN and COBOL programming languages at IBM. In 1967, it established the Morgan &
Cie, International in Paris in an attempt to enter the European securities market. The firm
acquired Brooks, Harvey & Co., Inc. in 1967 and established a presence in the real estate
business. The sales and trading business is believed to be the brainchild of Bob Baldwin.
In 1996, Morgan Stanley acquired Van Kampen American Capital.
On February 5, 1997 the company merged with Dean Witter Discover & Co., the spun-off
financial services business of Sears Roebuck. Dean Witter's Chairman and CEO, Philip J.
Purcell, continued to hold the same roles in the newly merged "Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Discover & Co." Morgan Stanley’s president John J. Mack became the firm’s president and chief
operating officer. In 1998, the name of the firm was changed to "Morgan Stanley Dean Witter &
Co." Originally, the name was chosen to be the combination of the two predecessor companies in
order to avoid tension between the two firms. Eventually in 2001 "Dean Witter" was further
dropped and the name became "Morgan Stanley" for unrevealed reasons.
Morgan Stanley had offices located on 24 floors across buildings 2 and 5 of the World Trade
Center in New York City. These offices had been inherited from Dean Witter which had
occupied the space since the mid-1980s. The firm lost 13 employees during the September 11
attacks in 2001 (Thomas F. Swift, Wesley Mercer, Jennifer de Jesus, Joseph DiPilato, Nolbert
Salomon, Godwin Forde, Steve R. Strauss, Lindsay C. Herkness, Albert Joseph, Jorge
Velazquez, Titus Davidson, Charles Laurencin and Security Director Rick Rescorla) in the
towers, while 2,687 were successfully evacuated by Rick Rescorla. The surviving employees
moved to temporary headquarters in the vicinity. In 2005 Morgan Stanley moved 2,300 of its
employees back to lower Manhattan, at that time the largest such move.
In 2003, NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital named the Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital in
recognition of the firm's sponsorship of the hospital, which largely funded its construction
through philanthropy. The initiative began under CEO Philip J. Purcell and was completed
under John Mack. Employees at the firm have been involved with the hospital since the 1990s
and personally donated to the construction of the current child-friendly building, which opened
in November 2003.
The company found itself in the midst of a management crisis starting in March 2005 that
resulted in a loss of the firm's staff. Purcell resigned as CEO of Morgan Stanley in June 2005
when a highly public campaign by former Morgan Stanley partners threatened to damage the
firm and challenged his refusal to aggressively increase leverage, increase risk, enter the sub-
prime mortgage business and make expensive acquisitions; the same strategies that forced
Morgan Stanley into massive write-downs, related to the subprime mortgage crisis, by 2007.
On December 19, 2006, Morgan Stanley announced the spin-off of its Discover Card unit. The
bank completed the spinoff of Discover Financial on June 30, 2007
In order to cope with the write-downs during the subprime mortgage crisis, Morgan Stanley
announced on December 19, 2007 that it would receive a US$5 billion capital infusion from
the China Investment Corporation in exchange for securities that would be convertible to 9.9%
of its shares in 2010.
The bank's Process Driven Trading unit was amongst several on Wall Street caught in a short
squeeze, reportedly losing nearly $300 million in one day. The bubble's subsequent collapse was
considered to be a central feature of the financial crisis of 2007–2010.
The bank was contracted by the United States Treasury in August 2008 to advise the government
on potential rescue strategies for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Within days, Morgan Stanley
itself was at risk of failure, with rapidly changing prospects, regulatory model and ownership
stakes over the course of four weeks from mid-September to mid-October 2008.
To set the context: Morgan Stanley is said to have lost over 80% of its market value between
2007 and 2008 during the financial crisis. On September 17, 2008, the British evening-news
analysis program Newsnight reported that Morgan Stanley was facing difficulties after a 42%
slide in its share price in two days. CEO John J. Mack wrote in a memo to staff "we're in the
midst of a market controlled by fear and rumours and short-sellers are driving our stock down."
By September 19, 2008, the share price had slid 57% in four days, and the company was said to
have explored merger possibilities with CITIC, Wachovia, HSBC, Standard Chartered, Banco
Santander and Nomura. At one point, Hank Paulson offered Morgan Stanley to JPMorgan
Chase at no cost, but JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon refused the offer.
Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, the last two major investment banks in the US, both
announced on September 22, 2008 that they would become traditional bank holding
companies regulated by the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve's approval of their bid to
become banks ended the ascendancy of securities firms, 75 years after Congress separated them
from deposit-taking lenders, and capped weeks of chaos that sent Lehman Brothers Holdings
Inc. into bankruptcy and led to the rushed sale of Merrill Lynch & Co. to Bank of America Corp.
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Japan's largest bank, invested $9 billion in a direct purchase of
a 21% ownership stake in Morgan Stanley on September 29, 2008. This may have been the
largest check ever written. Concerns over the completion of the Mitsubishi deal during the
October 2008 stock market volatility caused a dramatic fall in Morgan Stanley's stock price to
levels last seen in 1994. It recovered once Mitsubishi UFJ's 21% stake in Morgan Stanley was
completed on October 14, 2008.
Morgan Stanley borrowed $107.3 billion from the Fed during the 2008 crisis, the most of any
bank, according to data compiled by Bloomberg News Service and published August 22, 2011.
In 2009, Morgan Stanley purchased Smith Barney from Citigroup and the new broker-dealer
operates under the name Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, the largest wealth management business
in the world.
In November 2013, Morgan Stanley announced that it would invest $1 billion to help improve
affordable housing as part of a wider push to encourage investment in efforts that aid economic,
social and environmental sustainability.
In July 2014, Morgan Stanley's Asian private equity arm announced it had raised around $1.7
billion for its fourth fund in the area.
In December 2015, it was reported that Morgan Stanley would be cutting around 25 percent of
its fixed income jobs before month end. In January 2016, the company reported that it had
offices in more than 43 countries.
On February 20, 2020, Morgan Stanley announced that it would purchase E-Trade for about $13
billion.

The Global Wealth Management Group provides stockbrokerage and investment advisory
services. As of 2014 Q2 this segment had reported an annual increase of 21 percent in pre-tax
income. This segment provides financial and wealth planning services to its clients, who are
primarily high-net-worth individuals.
On January 13, 2009, the Global Wealth Management Group was merged with Citi's Smith
Barney to form the joint venture Morgan Stanley Smith Barney. Morgan Stanley holds 51% of
the entity, and Citi holds 49%. As of May 31, 2012, Morgan Stanley planned to purchase an
additional 14% of the joint venture from Citi. In June 2013, Morgan Stanley stated it had secured
all regulatory approvals to buy Citigroup's remaining 35% stake in Smith Barney and would
proceed to finalize the deal.
INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT
Investment Management provides asset management products and services in equity, fixed
income, alternative investments, real estate investment, and private equity to institutional and
retail clients through third-party retail distribution channels, intermediaries and Morgan Stanley's
institutional distribution channel. Morgan Stanley's asset management activities were principally
conducted under the Morgan Stanley and Van Kampen brands until 2009.
On October 19, 2009, Morgan Stanley announced that it would sell Van Kampen to Invesco for
$1.5 billion, but would retain the Morgan Stanley brand. It provides asset management products
and services to institutional investors worldwide, including pension plans, corporations, private
funds, non-profit organizations, foundations, endowments, governmental agencies, insurance
companies and banks.
On September 29, 2013, Morgan Stanley announced a partnership with Longchamp Asset
Management, a French-based asset manager that specialises in the distribution of UCITS hedge
funds, and La Française AM, a multi-specialist asset manager with a 10-year track record in

CONCLUSIONS:
HDFC Bank, the banking arm of HDFC is expected to go on stream. The bank already has good
number of employees on board and is recruiting personal banker heavily to take the headcount to
many more. It is on the brim of increasing its customers through its attractive schemes and offer.
So, at last the conclusion is that there is tough competition ahead for the company from its major
competitors in the banking sector. Last but not the least I would like to thank HDFC Bank for
giving me an opportunity to work in the field of Marketing and Operation. I hope the company
finds my analysis relevant.
