Mary Rich

Spear's Review

Mary Rich’s promotion to global head of the digital assets group for private wealth management at Goldman Sachs was yet another indicator of significant institutional acceptance of cryptocurrencies.

On her appointment, Rich told CNBC that Goldman’s private wealth division would offer the ‘full spectrum’ of investments in bitcoin and other digital assets, ‘whether that’s through the physical bitcoin, derivatives or traditional investment vehicles’. She added: ‘We are working closely with teams across the firm to explore ways to offer thoughtful and appropriate access to the ecosystem for private wealth clients.’
