Across town, Goldman Sachs Group is seeking associates to review loans tied to everything from commercial property to yachts. In Mumbai, buyout giant KKR is adding staff to monitor its portfolio companies, while hedge fund Millennium Management LLC is seeking risk analysts for its derivatives trading team.

The flurry of job postings underscores Wall Street’s growing reliance on Indian hubs, where JPMorgan employs nearly a fifth of its global workforce. This long-

running recruitment push is now poised to accelerate as US President Donald Trump moves to tighten immigration by driving up visa costs, adding even more of these sophisticated finance roles in India.
