You wonder what he thought his angle would be. He seems to have knowingly shouldered as much risk as his partner without any of the payoffs. My guess is he was compensated somehow but has thus far managed to shield that knowledge.

This plus the fact that he was working at Morgan Stanley seems to indicate that either he's managed to cleverly hide the loot, or he was doing it because of the challenge. If the latter, then it wouldn't have been any challenge to rip off Morgan Stanley, since he was already inside.
