WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 (UPI) -- Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson Jr. said he thought bankers were overpaid even before the financial crisis gave the issue prominence.
In an interview with CNBC Monday, Paulson, the former chairman and chief executive officer of Goldman Sachs said, "when I ran with Goldman Sachs, even during benign times, I had felt the compensation in the industry seemed out of whack."
