The Governor of the Bank of England has told a tribunal that he had a “clear impression” that the former head of Barclays, Jes Staley, “did appear to have a close relationship” with paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew Bailey, who was chief executive of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) from 2016 to 2020, appeared at the Upper Tribunal in London to give evidence in Mr Staley’s legal challenge against the watchdog over his links to Epstein.
