Goldman Sachs has counter-attacked claims that its exposure to the subprime mortgage sector is significant. Goldman CFO David Viniar said reports that the subprime meltdown will hit the firm hard are overstated, and in fact, Goldman remains largely unaffected by the problems. Viniar went further, saying that concerns that the subprime problems may spill over into other sectors of the subprime market are also off the mark.
