Re: Jes Staley & Barclays

Jeffery,

I have been trying to get in touch for a while regarding the imminent appointment of Jes Staley at Barclays, because I was hoping for a chat.

We are working on a story concerning your role in Jes Staley's imminent appointment to the CEO role at Barclays. We understand that you played a significant role in Jes Staley's candidacy for this job, and indeed played a similar role in 2012, lobbying board members at Barclays as well as banking authorities in the UK.

In fact we understand that Jes was approved by most of the board in 2012 but vetoed at the last minute. Obviously the outcome looks different this time.

Since we are planning a story we would very much like you to comment.
