State and federal securities regulators also investigating Goldman’s communications among its analysts, sales and trading staff and clients.

In the filing, Goldman acknowledges that a Senate investigative committee has referred a report about banks and their underwriting activities before and during the financial crisis to the Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for review.

Last year, Goldman paid a $550 million settlement to the SEC over charges that it misled investors in trading of a complex mortgage product.
