Goldman Sachs Pulls Claude Code and GitHub Copilot From Traders and Bankers, Confines Access to 12,000 Engineers
Summary
Bloomberg reports Nov 2 that Goldman Sachs has restricted access to Anthropic's Claude Code and Microsoft's GitHub Copilot to its roughly 12,000 engineers, pulling the tools from bankers and traders who had used them for months. Internal guidance updated in October followed a productivity-and-risk review; Goldman's 'strats' group — software engineers who also do quant work — keeps access. A spokesperson said the firm put the tools 'in the hands of those who are best suited to leverage them for the long term.'
