The platform offered a severance package of two months to the laid-off employees, with two weeks per year served at the startup.

The group of roughly 400 is the cream of the crop of the cream of the crop, representing about 1% of the prestigious investment bank's entire workforce.Such a high bar is bound to come with some nice perks, <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldman-sachs-is-about-to-promote-another-round-of-partners-2022-10">which it does</a>, but it's more than adding zeros to the bank account. (Although that doesn't hurt.) Partner status comes with a certain cachet across the Street: This person is the real deal. With that in mind, why does it seem like so many partners have headed for the exits recently? A recent Insider investigation by Dakin Campbell and Emmalyse Brownstein found that <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldman-sachs-david-solomon-ceo-partners-departures-strategy-2023-9">at least 202 partners</a> have left the firm during CEO David Solomon's <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/latest-goldman-sachs-news-2019-5">volatile five-year tenure</a>. But Dakin didn't stop there, interviewing six partners about <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldman-sachs-david-solomon-ceo-partners-departures-strategy-2023-9">what led them to leave</a>. The conversations provide a fascinating glimpse into a person's rationale for leaving a role some consider to be the pinnacle of the field. And while Solomon's strategic missteps were a key talking point for many, not all the former partners bashed the CEO. Some defended their old boss to Dakin, pointing to the number of changes he's taken on during his tenure.The bank, meanwhile, has long pushed back on the notion of a partner exodus, explaining the turnover as the natural changing of the guard and pointing to an increase in the average tenure of partners.But much of the interest around partner exits isn't just about how many partners have left. It's also about which ones have gone. This year alone <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldmans-julian-salisbury-is-heading-to-sixth-street-after-25-years-2023-7">Julian Salisbury</a>, once considered a <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/profile-of-julian-salisbury-goldman-sachs-2022-2">CEO contender</a>, and <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldman-sachs-partners-leaving-dina-powell-mccormick-fred-baba-layoffs-2023-5">Dina Powell McCormick</a>, one of the most senior women at the bank, both departed. Even new entrants to the partnership aren't sticking around. Fred Baba, considered a <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/rising-stars-wall-street-investing-trading-dealmaking-2020-9#frederick-baba-31-goldman-sachs-8">rising star at the bank</a>, left less than six months after <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/fred-baba-speaking-up-about-racism-leaving-goldman-sachs-2023-5">being named a partner</a>. One former partner noted broader exits at the firm could boil down to flushing out the people who weren't willing to back Solomon's vision. But how many of those people are still at the firm? Ahead of Solomon taking the reins from Lloyd Blankfein back in 2018, Dakin compiled a list of executives in <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/david-solomon-goldman-sachs-inner-circle-management-team-dozen-2018-7">Solomon's inner circle</a> and key members of his broader management team. Fast forward to today, and roughly half of Solomon's ardent supporters have since left.<h2>3 things in markets</h2>Before the opening bell: US <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/premarket">stock futures</a> are flat Wednesday ahead of the Fed's <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/will-fed-raise-interest-rates-this-week-2023-9">interest-rate decision</a>. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/instacart-ipo-billions-sequoia-2023-9"></a><div type="image" title="Apoorva Mehta Daniel Sundheim Michael Moritz" height="1080" width="1440" msid="103815440" hostid="261" sizebytes="108366"></div>1.

However, new anti-diabetic drugs coming in the market are found to be very effective in weight loss, in addition to controlling blood glucose levels. Does that mean these drugs can be used for the purpose they are not originally intended – only for weight loss? The world’s richest man and the new owner of Twitter, <keyword id="6355315" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="elon-musk" source="Orion">Elon Musk</keyword> seems to think so. <div type="twitter" handle="elonmusk" handlename="Elon Musk" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1590968738358079488/IY9Gx6Ok_normal.jpg" favoritecount="4414" retweetcount="287" status="@teslaownersSV @chicago_glenn @stillgray @dcherring @nichegamer Fasting + Ozempic/Wegovy + no tasty food near me" createdat="1668580581000" id="1592768518050574336"></div> In a tweet, he credited <keyword id="14638097" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="wegovy" source="Orion">Wegovy</keyword> as his secret of losing over 13 kilos. Wegovy is an injectable type-2 <keyword id="6359018" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="diabetes" source="Orion">diabetes</keyword> drug by Novo Nordisk, which is also indicated for weight loss. How do these drugs cause weight loss? Apart from the injectable, GLP1 receptor agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors are other types of diabetic drugs available in the market that have been found to be effective for weight loss. “These drugs act through various mechanisms, for instance, they work by increasing the removal of glucose from the body via urinary excretion, thereby leading to the loss of calories from the body,” Dr Brij Mohan <keyword id="76127" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="makkar" source="Orion">Makkar</keyword>, senior diabetologist, president RSSDI told Business Insider India. According to <keyword id="15635207" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="dr-makkar" source="Orion">Dr Makkar</keyword>, Inj Semaglutide 2.4 mg (Wegovvy), which is FDA-approved and is a GLP1 receptor agonist, is said to be the most popular anti-diabetic weight loss drug. Inj Semaglutide drug acts on the brain to reduce appetite, slow gastric emptying, and reduce blood pressure to some extent, all of which have favourable effects on the metabolism. This drug suppresses appetite through its action on the brain, which gives a feeling of fullness. “The drug has been studied in many clinical trials and found safe. The injection needs to be taken once a week and continued for the long term,” Dr Makkar said. He also believes that they do not cause major side effects. “The side effects, if any, are usually mild and subside shortly after treatment initiation,” he added. Are they affordable? In addition to weight loss, anti-diabetic drugs help control other metabolic diseases too. GLP1 receptor agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors also help protect against cardiovascular events. “These classes of drugs showed cardiovascular benefits in studies,” Dr Reddy added. SGLT2 drugs also help in preventing heart failures and are now being used as the first treatment by cardiologists, even among non-diabetics, according to Dr Mohan. Other drugs like <keyword id="123712" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="metformin" source="Orion">Metformin</keyword> (Biguanide family),Glucosidase inhibitors are found to be effective in losing weight. “Metformin remains the primary treatment in type 2 Diabetes. Its mechanism is at central hypothalamic and peripheral gastrointestinal effects glucosidase inhibitor by delaying carbohydrate absorption from gastrointestinal tract,” Dr Somashekara Reddy, consultant - diabetology &amp; endocrinology, Fortis Hospitals, Bangalore told Business Insider India. Another diabetic drug called Liraglutide is recommended by doctors for purely weight loss in many countries like the USA, even among non-diabetics, Dr Mohan added. However, none of the SGLT2 inhibitors have received approval for weight loss so far, in India. Weight loss drugs themselves are few in India. “Currently, only one approved weight loss drug is available in India, and it acts by blocking the absorption of fat. But the drawback is that it is a very mild drug and helps in losing only about 4% of the body weight. It acts differently than diabetes weight loss drugs,” Dr Makkar said. Dr Mohan also highlighted that these two classes of drugs – GLP1 and SGLT2 agent drugs — are highly expensive and beyond the reach of a common man.
