Goldman Asks Analysts to Swear They Haven’t Lined Up Private Equity Jobs

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. plans to ask junior bankers to confirm their loyalty on a regular basis in a bid to limit advances from talent-hungry buyout firms.

The investment bank will ask new analysts to certify every three months that they haven’t already lined up jobs elsewhere, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing the confidential plan.
