Context RSUs are a form of compensation that convert into company shares if and when they vest; they are not an open‑market purchase or sale and do not by themselves signal a near‑term buy or sell. The award vests over time (or upon a change in control) and Goldman has chosen to defer actual receipt of the underlying shares.
