Goldman Sachs announced the appointment of co-heads of investment banking in India.

Sudarshan Ramakrishnan and Devarajan Nambakam have been named as co-heads of investment banking in India at Goldman Sachs, according to a statement. The two former co-chief operating officers in India will report to Sonjoy Chatterjee, the bank's chairman and chief executive in the country.  

Ramakrishnan joined Goldman’s Hong Kong office in 2004 before moving to Mumbai in 2007 to oversee client coverage across technology, media & telecom, consumer & retail, metals & mining and some large conglomerate clients.

Nambakam worked in London for four years before joining the Mumbai investment banking team in 2010 to cover clients across the financial sponsors, natural resources, healthcare, industrials and infrastructure sectors.

In addition, Kamna Sahni will join the bank in Mumbai as an executive director at the end of the month.

«India is one of the largest and most exciting growth opportunities in the world,» commented Chatterjee. «As the complexity of our clients’ needs grow in tandem with the Indian economy, these appointments reflect our continued conviction to bring together the firm’s global expertise, resources and network to further differentiate the advice, service and execution we provide our clients.»
