Description

Martin Arnold is joined by Daniel Schäfer for the latest at Barclays, which has shifted £400bn of assets out of its investment arm, and has come under scrutiny from the UK Serious Fraud Office over a 2008 cash call that saw Qatari investors paid fees equivalent to more than 7 per cent of the capital invested. Sharlene Goff takes a look at Standard Chartered, whose protest vote last week over pay proposals was the biggest of its kind this year. Finally, Sam Fleming has news that banks are bracing for a new fight over capital requirements as the Basel Committee moves to tighten regulations on risks linked to interest rate shocks For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
