Amanda Staveley on tällä hetkellä oikeudessa grillattavana.
En ole jaksanut seurata, mutta joku tietäjä voinee korjata. Liittyykö tämä Cityn kauppaan vai Barclays pankin kupruun finanssikriisin aikana? Ilmeisesti vaatii 1,5 miljardin korvausta...tälläkin lienee jonkinlainen vaikutus, että Castlen kauppa seisoo paikallaan, kosks Staveley toimii tässäkin välikätenä. Toki se piratismi päälle.
Barclays pankin kupruun finanssikriisin aikana.
Chronicle:
"A businesswoman who says Barclays misled her, shareholders and the market when negotiating investment deals during the 2008 global financial crisis has told a High Court judge that a bank boss “lied”.
Lawyers representing Amanda Staveley say Barclays agreed to provide an unsecured £2bn loan to Qatari investors.
Ms Staveley’s firm PCP says it is owed money for the work it did setting up a Middle East investment deal for Barclays during the 2008 crisis.
The businesswoman told Mr Justice Waksman on Thursday how she learned about “secret fees” five years later, in 2013.
Ms Staveley said she realised that Roger Jenkins, a then Barclays boss who had been involved in discussions, had “lied” to her.
Her lawyers say the loan was “concealed” from the market, shareholders and from her.
But lawyers representing Barclays have described PCP’s damages claim as “opportunistic and speculative”.
They say “PCP in fact made no loss”.
Mr Justice Waksman began overseeing the trial, which is being shown online and is expected to last two months, at the High Court in London on Monday."
