I'm trying to figure out if Goldman Sachs can be considered as a high-frequency trading (HFT) firm. Are they known for their HFT activities, or do they operate differently?

Prior to the regulations imposed by Volker, proprietary trading desks within banks played a significant role in high-frequency trading (HFT). These desks were known to be major players in the HFT landscape.

Merrill Lynch, now a part of Bank of America, was also among the banks with a proprietary trading desk engaged in HFT before the changes brought about by Volker.
