"Goldman Sachs' David Solomon has restored the bank's swagger - and it just rewarded him with a $47 million pay package for 2025. That puts him ahead of his top competitor on Wall Street, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, whose firm announced this week it would pay him $43 million for last year's performance. Solomon's prior-year compensation was $39 million for 2024, meaning this year's pay is up 21%."
"Goldman announced Solomon's compensation in a regulatory filing on Friday, citing "continued and significant shareholder value creation during 2025, including a total shareholder return of 57%," under Solomon's leadership. The firm just wrapped its second-best year overall for the bank, reporting net revenues of more than $58 billion. The firm's investment bank also had its best year ever by revenue, and the stock has been up significantly on Solomon's watch."
Goldman Sachs will pay CEO David Solomon $47 million for 2025, up from $39 million in 2024. The $47 million package places Solomon ahead of JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, whose pay was $43 million. The firm reported a total shareholder return of 57% in 2025 and net revenues exceeding $58 billion, marking Goldman’s second-best overall year. The investment banking division posted its best revenue year ever, and the bank's stock rose significantly. About a year earlier, Goldman granted Solomon and President and COO John Waldron $80 million each in restricted stock units vesting over five years.
