The City trader jailed for Libor rigging in 2015 has said he believes he was convicted during a “morality trial” of bankers’ conduct, as he concluded his fight to clear his name at the UK’s highest court.
Speaking after a three-day hearing at the supreme court in London on Thursday, Tom Hayes said his original conviction a decade ago was a reaction to the 2008 financial crisis and a jury guided by a “judge who had made his mind up about me”.
