Goldman Sachs Group disclosed more regulators—beyond the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)—are investigating its credit card account management practices.
In its annual 10-K report filed Friday, Goldman Sachs said it is cooperating with the CFPB “and other governmental bodies” related to investigations and/or inquiries into the bank’s U.S. credit card account management practices. The bank did not specify which other regulators might be involved in the probes.
In August, Goldman Sachs disclosed only the CFPB was investigating those practices.
