1MDB: Cohn to make donation instead of returning pay to Goldman


Goldman Sachs in October agreed to pay U.S. authorities $2.9 billion in penalties to settle probes by the Department of Justice and other authorities into its role in the 1MDB scandal.

WASHINGTON: Gary Cohn will make a charitable donation instead of giving back compensation to Goldman Sachs Group Inc as penance for the Wall Street bank's involvement in Malaysia's 1MDB sovereign fund corruption scandal.

"Mr. Cohn is a team player, and as a good corporate citizen, he volunteered many weeks ago to make a significant charitable contribution to Goldman Sachs-sponsored organizations and looks forward to doing so," a spokeswoman for Cohn said.
