Newly unsealed bankruptcy documents revealed that FTX owes money to thousands of creditors after the once-mighty crypto exchange collapsed in November.
Included in the creditor list are big names from Wall Street, such as Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan, as well as businesses, charities, individuals and other entities from around the world. FTX is now at the center of a massive fraud investigation.
On Thursday, lawyers for FTX filed an additional document advising the court that the list — known as a creditor matrix — is “intended to be very broad” and “includes parties who may appear in the Debtors books and records for any number of reasons.” Being on the list does not “necessarily indicate that the party is a creditor” of FTX or its affiliates, they wrote.
Goldman Sachs, one of the world’s most prestigious investment banks, is surprisingly listed in the creditor matrix of FTX, a small up-and-coming company that recently filed for bankruptcy.
In a statement to CNN on Wednesday, Goldman Sachs said that they are not a creditor of FTX. This begs the question: why is Goldman Sachs listed on the matrix if they’re not a creditor?
