In November 2019, customers of Goldman-Sachs and Apple's Apple Card, the first credit offering by Goldman-Sachs, claimed that there was gender discrimination in the credit assessment algorithm that distributes credit lines, with men receiving significantly higher credit limits than women with equal credit qualifications. Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak confirmed this also happened with him and his wife and the New York Department for Financial Services have launched an investigation regarding the discrimination claim. In response to this incident, Goldman Sachs made a statement that it has not and will never make decisions based on factors like gender, race, age, sexual orientation or any other legally prohibited factors when determining credit worthiness.
