Goldman FIG Financing Group and Real Estate Financing Group
Hi all,
I would like to learn more about Goldman's FIG and Real Estate Financing Groups. Both groups sit within the Americas Financing Group within IBD, and I would like to know how each, as a specialized Capital Markets Group, differs from a general Capital Markets Group where one may cover a wide cross-section of industries.
I would also like to better understand how the experience within each differs from that within the standard RE and FIG coverage groups. What roles, for FIG and RE, are exclusive to the coverage bankers, and what roles are handled by the capital markets bankers?
Since my final two questions do not follow any logical order, I felt it easiest to just bullet them below.
-Given that GS FIG has (as is universally known) very aggressive dealflow, does this translate into an equally aggressive dealflow for FIG financing?
-How does the modeling differ in a financing group from that in a coverage group? I would assume there is more of a specific focus on debt instruments in the capital markets modeling, but are 3-statement models still constructed?
I will be interviewing with these groups, so any insight would be greatly appreciated.
There is no three statement modeling in real estate lending/finance

As incoming sa for a sub group w in financing had no modeling questions. In a markets intense group so had market questions and a macro business performance question (that I half BSed w jargon like secular tailwinds and MBA balogne like that). In terms of modeling and the job I understand it to be lighter than actual. Actually groups will work on RX and MA/BD deals. From financing u focus on… u guessed it, financing. This means (as I understand) u will be staffed on these main deals but provide an ancillary function. U get exposure without the work but with worse exp. U can get exposure to deals in other banks.
