Bank of America lost $2.2 billion, but awarded CEO Brian Moynihan $9 million in restricted stock. At Goldman Sachs, Lloyd Blankfein scored even more. In fact, pay and benefits set a new record of $135.5 billion at the top 25 publicly traded Wall Street banks and security firms. The New York Times is not impressed. “More needs to be done to tame bankers’ appetite for high-risk financial strategies that shower them with profit in good times and leave the taxpayers holding the bag when their bets go bad.”
