Goldman Sachs is considering making hundreds of job cuts at its consumer business after chief executive David Solomon unveiled plans to scale back its &ldquo Main Street&rdquo banking ambitions, according to people familiar with the matter. Goldman is also planning to stop offering personal loans through its Marcus-branded retail banking platform, the people added. Personal loans, primarily for debt consolidation, were one of the first consumer products launched by Goldman in 2016. After years of losses and escalating costs, Solomon announced in October that Goldman would significantly pare back the company&rsquo s retail banking business. Its Marcus division will still accept retail deposits, which offer a relatively cheap source of funding for the bank.

Belgian police raided a European parliamentary office on Monday in a widening corruption investigation involving World Cup host Qatar as top politicians pledged to clamp down on sleaze. The Belgian federal prosecutor said it had searched 20 premises including homes and offices and seized about &euro 1mn in cash since Friday. Four people, including a member of the European parliament, will appear in front of a judge in Brussels on Wednesday after being charged with &ldquo participation in a criminal organisation, money laundering and corruption&rdquo . They have not named the MEP but Eva Kaili, a Greek socialist who was a vice-president of the body, has been stripped of her responsibilities and party membership. The prosecutor said it had &ldquo frozen&rdquo data belonging to 10 assistants to MEPs. Police seized &euro 600,000 in cash at a suspect&rsquo s home, &euro 150,000 at Kaili&rsquo s flat and &ldquo several hundred thousand euros&rdquo in a suitcase in a Brussels hotel room. Pierantonio Panzeri, a former MEP, is among the four charged by the Belgian authorities, according to Italian prosecutors.
