At the very least he was looking for money. Beggers can't be chosers I suppose. But, what did he need vast amounts of money for? In my opinion, Bannon is doing his level best to destroy democracy.
Why?
Because there is money and potential for more money in countries of the Third World. Bannon's glide path to that money is through right-wing extremist politics. He has to change the politics that currently exists in order to change the paradigm to more exploitive policies.
The "Policy of Exploitation" is very evident in the Trump White House in the way of reckless deregulation.

...The butler, identified by France Info only as Gabriel, said he “served crowned heads, diplomats, businessmen and politicians,” some of whom we just named above....
...Gabriel also asserted that ultra-right [wing] American Steve Bannon found himself in Epstein’s Paris apartment in the fall of 2018. “I was even his driver in Paris,” says Gabriel. Contacted several times, a spokesperson replied that the former political advisor of Donald Trump stayed at the Bristol Hotel while traveling in Paris....
...Investigators with the French police (click here) this week searched the Paris apartment formerly occupied by Epstein in connection with allegations that the infamous sex offender sexually abused and trafficked women and girls prior to his death by suicide in August, according to France 24. French prosecutors last month opened a preliminary investigation into Epstein’s alleged rape of minors.
The reported Bannon-Epstein meeting in Paris occurred months after Page Six said Bannon visited Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse. That was in Aug. 2018. An unnamed source speculated that Bannon was meeting with Epstein because he “need[ed] money to bankroll his political agenda” and Epstein was known to have “plenty of money, and crave[d] power and access.”
Bannon’s tenure as Trump chief strategist ended in Aug. 2017.
A Gates representative said on their behalf that “Any allusion to a business or personal relationship between Jeffrey Epstein and Bill and Melinda Gates is totally false.”
