STRATS SM TRUST FOR Goldman Sachs Cap I SEC SERIES 2005-3 8-K

What Happened

• STRATS SM Trust for Goldman Sachs Capital I, Series 2005‑3 filed a Form 8‑K on March 19, 2026 under Item 8.01 (Other Events) to report a trustee distribution statement. The specific distribution information is included as Exhibit 99.1 (Trustee’s Distribution Statement) for the March 16, 2026 scheduled distribution date.
• The filing notes that the underlying securities’ sole assets are junior subordinated debentures issued by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., which is separately subject to Exchange Act reporting (Goldman Sachs Capital I, Exchange Act file No. 001‑14965). The trust sponsor (Synthetic Fixed‑Income Securities, Inc.) and the trustee state they did not prepare, verify, or conduct due diligence on Goldman’s SEC filings.

Key Details

• Filing date: March 19, 2026 (Form 8‑K, Item 8.01).
• Exhibit: Trustee’s Distribution Statement to STRATS Certificates, Series 2005‑3 for the March 16, 2026 scheduled distribution (Exhibit 99.1).

• Sponsor/trustee disclaimer: Neither Synthetic Fixed‑Income Securities, Inc. nor the trustee verified Goldman’s public filings or vouched for their accuracy.

Why It Matters

• For investors in STRATS Certificates, Series 2005‑3, this filing confirms a scheduled distribution event and points to Exhibit 99.1 for the distribution details (amounts and payees should be checked there).
• Because the trust’s assets are junior subordinated debentures of Goldman, material information about the issuer that could affect the securities will be found in Goldman Sachs Capital I’s separate SEC filings; the trust and trustee explicitly disclaim having verified those issuer filings.
• Investors should review the trustee’s distribution statement (Exhibit 99.1) and, if concerned about issuer credit or other risks, consult Goldman Sachs Capital I’s public reports on EDGAR.
