LONDON, Feb 25 (Reuters) - Barclays shareholder
Sherborne Investors has criticised the lender's
governance, after the bank disclosed earlier this month it is
being probed over Chief Executive Jes Staley's past links to
U.S. financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Sherborne boss Edward Bramson renewed his criticism of the
lender's investment banking-led strategy, in addition to
criticising the CEO's conduct, in a letter to Sherborne
investors seen by Reuters.
Staley has said he regrets having a professional
relationship with Epstein, who killed himself last August while
awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
Barclays declined to comment.
