Goldman Sachs Group's environmental, social and governance track record

Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Goldman Sachs Group.

When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.

Goldman Sachs Group's total ESG risk score

Total ESG risk: 36.08

Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Goldman Sachs Group's overall score of 36.08 (as at 01/01/2019) is pretty weak – landing it in it in the 68th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Goldman Sachs Group is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).

Goldman Sachs Group's environmental score

Environmental score: 7.25/100

Goldman Sachs Group's environmental score of 7.25 puts it squarely in the 9th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Goldman Sachs Group is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

Goldman Sachs Group's social score

Social score: 19.67/100

Goldman Sachs Group's social score of 19.67 puts it squarely in the 9th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Goldman Sachs Group is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.

Goldman Sachs Group's governance score

Governance score: 22.16/100

Goldman Sachs Group's governance score puts it squarely in the 9th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Goldman Sachs Group is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.

Goldman Sachs Group's controversy score

Controversy score: 4/5

ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Goldman Sachs Group scored a 4 out of 5 for controversy – the second-lowest score possible, reflecting that Goldman Sachs Group has a damaged public profile.

Goldman Sachs Group share dividends

34%

Dividend payout ratio: 34.28% of net profits

Recently Goldman Sachs Group has paid out, on average, around 34.28% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.08% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Goldman Sachs Group shareholders could enjoy a 3.08% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Goldman Sachs Group's case, that would currently equate to about $9.5 per share.

While Goldman Sachs Group's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Goldman Sachs Group may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Goldman Sachs Group's most recent dividend payout was on 29 June 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 1 March 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

Goldman Sachs Group share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Goldman Sachs Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $272.0137 up to $384.2883. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

GS.US volatility(beta: 1.4)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Goldman Sachs Group's is 1.4036. This would suggest that Goldman Sachs Group's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
