Goldman Junior Bankers’ Photo Shoot in Hermes, Tom Ford Sparks Blame Game

When they were confronted by executives, at least one of the men said that they believed compliance was OK with participating in Interview Magazine’s feature, “Meet the Finest Boys in Finance,” according to people with knowledge of the matter. But the press office, which stewards the bank’s image, was not on board.
