I was looking over this sheet from 2007 that was talking about the comp for groups at Lehman in 2007, and I noticed that the salaries in the "Risk Solutions Group" were insanely high. Like associates in the risk group were making over 200k a year, and VPs were making over 500k. How can this be real for a non-revenue producing group? Was comp really this high all around pre-2008? I thought Risk VPs made 250k max?
