No Nigerian there.

Also, did you read people's comments below the list? One guy's bio is being contested; he was MIT '96, and is said to have joined GS in 1991.

u mean Bunty Bohra . they didn't state when he joined GS.

this guy Dhruv Piplani is particularly impressive at 29 shocked

Strange that there is no Nigerian in the list. but there are quite a few Indians.

From these guys profile. it shows that modern banking is getting seriously scientific. more than a half of these guys have a technical background

Why do you think its strange?

Do you really think we have a LOT of Nigerians in these fields (on an international level) ?

i thought the finance minister was a MD in GS

I think we do.
I know lots of Nigerians who are VPs, but not managing directors, at GS.
We have a lot of Nigerians, particularly the ones based in the States, in the finance sector. Maybe not so many traders sha.
Re: Meet The Goldman Partner Class Of 2011 by candylips(m): 2:31pm On Dec 02, 2010
well VP is still about 3 or so grades below Md actually.

There are usually a lot of people stuck at VP level because grades above that are highly competitive

Make we no lie, being Partner at a Big Four accounting or law firm no be moi moi talkless of GS, shoo, most of these people are very very brilliant.

It takes a certain king of persona and brains to get to this high levels. There are Nigerians everywhere if you look closely enough, they are just not many.
A guy in my church just became the Area head of Mastercard East and West Africa a few months ago. Moving up quickly in MC.
Re: Meet The Goldman Partner Class Of 2011 by candylips(m): 5:28pm On Dec 02, 2010
exactly my point.

even getting to VP level no be akara .

i know a 9ja guy who has been stuck at AVP for 10 yrs now but the guy is only above averge sha

As in a LOT when compared to the Indians/Asian and some Scandinavian?

then I think another thing is their extra-curricular activities thus their networks
many (African) professionals I know just do what they do nothing extra, rarely any link outside their field/profession and mostly within the African community- just my observation

You know Africans are not so Westernized. At least Nigerians and other West Africans.
We don't really hang out that much with other races.
