On June 21, 2018, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. issued the following statement:
Our models and the Federal Reserve’s models diverge, which we expect to discuss with the Federal Reserve. We are examining that divergence and will provide more specificity around our planned capital return after the release of next week’s CCAR results. Therefore, the DFAST ratios that are published today may not represent our firm’s actual capital return capacity, which may be higher than this year’s test would otherwise indicate.
