Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim appointed a vocal critic of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to chair a task force formed to resolve matters linked to the multi-billion dollar 1Malaysia Development Bhd. scandal.
Anwar told parliament late Thursday that he agreed with criticism Johari Abdul Ghani had raised on Malaysia’s settlement deal with Goldman Sachs on 1MDB. Johari said last week the government should review its deal with Goldman Sachs for its role in the scandal, as the final sum was too low.
