Investmentbanking: Steiler Aufstieg: Tibor Kossa steigt bei Goldman Sachs zum Partner auf
Der Fusions- und Übernahmespezialist ist der einzige Deutsche, der es 2026 in den elitären Kreis schafft. Unter seiner Führung setzte sich die US-Bank an die Spitze des deutschen Marktes.
Frankfurt - Investment banker Tibor Kossa has been promoted to partner at Goldman Sachs, becoming the only German employee among 109 bankers selected for this elite position by CEO David Solomon and Chief Operating Officer John Waldron. This promotion marks a steep rise for Kossa, who joined Goldman Sachs from Credit Suisse in 2018.
Since May 2024, he has been co-leading investment banking operations in Germany and Austria, previously leading the mergers and acquisitions business. Kossa is well-connected with major German corporations, having successfully advised on numerous billion-dollar transactions, including Deutsche Bahn's sale of logistics subsidiary Schenker to Danish competitor DSV, Praxair's merger with Munich-based Linde, Qiagen's acquisition by EQT, and Lufthansa's purchase of Portuguese airline TAP.
He also advised Commerzbank on its takeover by Unicredit. Goldman Sachs has consistently ranked first in data provider Dealogic, handling over 60% of all transactions in Germany, which earned Kossa a prestigious partnership title at the firm, which has around 500 partners.
