Under the deal, announced in August 2015, Goldman Sachs Bank USA (GS Bank) would acquire about $17bn of GE Capital Bank’s $18.2bn in deposits.
"GS Bank also would acquire certain technology and intangible assets used by GE Capital Bank to manage its online retail deposit-taking platform; these assets represent approximately 1% of the total assets of GE Capital Bank," Federal Reserve said in a statement.
