The redundancies are expected to affect a small number of staff at Woodford Investment Management’s Oxford headquarters. The firm employed around 45 members of staff on 31 March last year, when it last published accounts. A spokesperson for Woodford said: “We have reluctantly entered into redundancy consultations with a number of staff to advise them that their roles are at risk.” Woodford, who was once REDOWEN BENNETT MIST DESCENDS gripped by mass protests against China’s Liu said the UK should “reflect on the echoed by his leadership rival Boris regarded as a star trader, has increasing attempts to seek influence consequences of its words and deeds”, Johnson, with the former foreign been battling to rebalance his @owenjbennett over the city state – culminating with and “refrain from further interference” secretary saying: “Yes, I do support them Equity Income fund since CHINA has warned the UK to keep its protesters storming Hong Kong’s in the dispute between his country and and I will happily speak up for them and trading was suspended last “hands off Hong Kong” in a dramatic government building on Monday and the Hong Kong people. back them every inch of the way.” month following a spike in escalation in tensions between Beijing spray-painting anti-Beijing slogans.

Not enough, it would seem, to quell anxiety among investors. Shares in the supermarket giant edged down a further 0.53 per cent last night as the City digested the news of a third consecutive quarterly drop in sales. Intense competition, tough comparatives, weak consumer confidence and political uncertainty; by now, the City understands the problems facing Sainsbury’s. The trouble is that there still seems to be no clarity as to what the solutions are. If the botched tie-up with Asda was Plan A, then what could be the board’s Plan B? C. HOARE & Co, the UK’s oldest surviving family bank, offered a rare glimpse behind its Fleet Street doors. Among the treasures inside is the original Golden Bottle, which marked the location of the bank before street numbers were invented. Richard Hoare Coupe and his directors have vowed to cut costs, slash debt and started the City firm in 1672 and it has dealt with the affairs of diarist Samuel Pepys, poet Lord Byron and novelist Jane Austen. refurbish 400 stores, but their pledges feel somewhat If the botched tie- underwhelming in contrast up with Asda was to their retail rivals.

Swiss regulators have placed a ban on the trading of Swissnce equities Updater on EU exchanges after the European Commission allowed discussions on reaching an ‘equivalence’ decision to expire.

  • Credit Suisse Fires 2 Employees After Sexual Assault Investigation
    7/23/2020 Credit Suisse fires 2 employees after sexual assault investigation | Financial Times Credit Suisse Group AG Credit Suisse fires 2 employees after sexual assault investigation Senior banker and manager based in London have had their contracts terminated Stephen Morris in London AUGUST 23 2018 Credit Suisse has fired two male employees in London after uncovering new evidence during an investigation into a sexual assault from eight years ago. The bank has terminated the contract of the senior banker at the centre of the 2010 incident, as well as a second manager who was found to have hampered the original probe, according to a person familiar with the internal review, which was completed last week. The assault took place eight years ago when a group of staff went to a bar near Credit Suisse’s London office, where the female banker was kissed and inappropriately touched by her senior colleague. She reported the assault to the police at the time but no action was taken on the grounds of insufficient evidence. The victim subsequently left the company, but in January this year was inspired by the #MeToo movement to send two letters to current chief executive Tidjane Thiam, urging him to look again at the case. While the letters initially slipped through the cracks, Mr Thiam apologised to the woman and ordered a new investigation into the assault after the Financial Times alerted him to their existence in March. Lara Warner, the bank’s chief compliance and regulatory officer, and her chief of staff reviewed the evidence and interviewed those involved again and determined the two men had misled investigations and withheld vital information.
