Lord Browne has resigned as a board member at Goldman Sachs in the wake of revelations that he lied to a UK High Court judge. The decision came a week after Lord Browne stepped down earlier than planned as chief executive of BP.

　　Lloyd Blankfein， Goldman chief executive， praised Lord Browne for his eight years of service as director， a period in which Goldman transformed itself from a private partnership to the most profitable publicly traded investment bank on Wall Street.

　　布朗勛爵已辭去高盛董事職務，此前有消息披露稱，他曾向英國高等法院一位法官說謊。一周前，他已提前辭去英國石油首席執行官一職。

　　高盛首席執行官勞埃德·布蘭克費恩贊揚了布朗勛爵的貢獻。在布朗勛爵擔任高盛董事的8年間，高盛從一家私人合伙企業成功轉型為華爾街利潤最豐厚的上市投行之一。
