Barclays chairman attacks banking’s bonus culture
The chairman of Barclays, John McFarlane, speaking the Annual International Banking Conference in London on 22 October strongly criticised the bonus system for investment bankers, arguing it encourages people to “cut corners”, noting that eliminating “geared incentives in retail or investment banking” would “remove the temptation to cut corners”.
He further made the comment that the flaws of the bonus system had been exposed by the financial crisis when “most of the returns at investment banks went to employees and not to shareholders and I think that game is over”.
