Kuala Lumpur: Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said he may consider a lawsuit against Goldman Sachs Group Inc over its role in the multi-billion dollar scandal involving 1MDB, according to an interview with CNBC.
The government is weighing multiple options beyond just negotiations with the Wall Street firm, Anwar told CNBC’s Martin Soong. So far, the bank has “not been too forthcoming”, he said.“So there is, of course, discussions on that score, there are other routes to be taken. And I’m not discounting the possibility of proceeding again with the issue of lawsuits,” he said in the interview, excerpts of which were aired on Monday.
