Paying to play Goldman VP Neil Morrison was charged by the SEC with having a hand in then-state treasurer Timothy Cahill’s independent bid for governor while trying to get bond business for Goldman Sachs. Morrison had previously worked for Cahill at the treasury. Ultimately, Morrison was fined $100,000 and barred from securities trading for five years. 4. The Muppet Show When Goldman trader Greg Smith resigned, he took to print, accusing his former employer of losing its old culture. He said it was now full of “morally bankrupt” people who called clients “muppets” behind their backs. 3. Goldman’s Greek games The Archimedes Screw was invented by the Greek mathematician to transfer water out of low-levels of water and into ditches. In the last decade, Goldman Sachs’ version transferred high levels of Greek debt to further dates, sinking the country into a huge financial ditch while trying to dodge EU budget oversight. 2. The fabulous financial fiasco Goldman sold a lot of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) such as mortgage-backed securities (MBSs) before the housing market collapse. One group of “synthetic CDOs” was sold to investors. What Goldman didn’t mention was the John Paulson’s fund had a role in picking the composition of those CDOs at a time it was shorting them. Goldman paid $550 million to settle charges related to it. Meanwhile, former Goldman mid-level trader Fabrice “Fabulous Fab” Tourre is currently on trial for his role in the case. Oh, and Paulson made over $1 billion during the housing market collapse. 1. Getting taxpayer money through AIG When insurance giant AIG nearly went bust, one of the reasons it was bailed out by the US government was it was too big to fail. What was going to make them fail? All the credit default swaps (CDSs) sold to Goldman Sachs in case a counterparty’s credit declined. So, guess who got billions of dollars in the taxpayers’ bailout of AIG? Yep, Goldman Sachs. |
