The bank also said it saw no significant exposure from that portion of the settlement, which was on top of a US$2.5 billion cash payment to settle criminal charges that Malaysia filed against Goldman and its directors over a bond issue conducted on behalf of 1MDB. Goldman’s remarks vindicated former attorney general Tan Sri Tommy Thomas who made the assertion when disagreeing with the settlement previously, Lim added.

He said the government’s lack of response to criticism of the settlement was unbecoming as it implied that Putrajaya was not interested in transparency and public accountability.
