Imagine Goldman Sachs’ top brass gathered in 2014, ready to rewrite the rules of consumer banking using digital as their weapon of choice. This isn’t a story of triumph, it’s a cautionary tale of ambition outpacing alignment.

In Part 2 of our Goldman Sachs deep dive, we unpack how Marcus, the bank's bold foray into consumer banking, ultimately had its ambitions curtailed—not because of poor execution, but because the strategy itself lacked stakeholder alignment.
