Vatican, Goldman Sachs throw weight behind ‘In’ campaign

In an interview with ITV News on 20 January 2016, Vatican's foreign minister Archbishop Paul Gallagher voiced hope that the United Kingdon would stay in the European Union following a referendum on the country's membership.

It was also reported in January that American multinational investment banking firm Goldman Sachs had agreed to donate a 'substantial six-figure sum' to Britain Stronger In Europe, a campaign to keep Britain in the European Union.
