When Marc Nachman, head of Goldman Sachs' asset and wealth management division, is mentioned in polite company, he's usually portrayed as a behind the scenes sort of presence. He's a "fixer," said the Financial Times in November last year. He's David Solomon's guy, added the FT more recently: D-Sol uses M Nachman for his structural fixes. However, Nachman is also "very smart" and "digs into detail." This might sound good until you are being dug into, an experience that seems to have afflicted one of Solomon's other favourite people.
