Dernières nouvelles pour Barclays (NYSE:BCS) Stock

Barclays

Barclays is a universal bank headquartered in the United Kingdom. It operates via five principal segments; UK (retail), UK corporate bank, private bank and wealth management, investment bank, and US consumer bank. In its UK segment, the bank provides current accounts, mortgages, savings and investment management services, credit cards, and business banking services to retail clients and small and medium-size enterprises. The international segment includes a corporate bank offering banking solutions to large corporates, a bulge-bracket global investment bank, and a credit card and payments business.

Barclays (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BCS#NYSE">BCS</a>) and its former CEO Jes Staley will have to defend themselves in a U.S. court over accusations that they misled shareholders about Staley's relationship with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45786407/jeffrey-epsteins-40-million-bet-on-peter-thiels-capital-firm-is-now-worth-170-million-but-his-victims-probably-wont-see-a-dime">late financier Jeffrey Epstein</a>.
A federal judge in Los Angeles ruled that there was sufficient ground for the case to proceed, allowing investors to pursue claims that the bank and its former chief intentionally concealed key information to safeguard Barclays&#8217; reputation and stock value, Reuters reported.
The class-action lawsuit, led by pension funds from New York and St. Louis, focuses on the period between July 22, 2019, shortly after Epstein's arrest, and October 12, 2023. 
Investors argue that Barclays continued to make misleading public statements even after the bank discovered emails suggesting Staley had described Epstein as being &#8220;like family.&#8221;
The complaint points to repeated assurances from Barclays indicating Staley's interactions with Epstein were strictly professional. 
Shareholders also challenge statements suggesting the British Financial Conduct Authority's investigation was limited to whether Staley knew about Epstein's alleged crimes, and not whether he witnessed them.
While U.S. District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong allowed the core fraud claims against Barclays and Staley to proceed, she limited some parts of the case brought against Barclays Chairman Nigel Higgins.

Neither Staley's legal team nor lawyers representing Barclays and Higgins provided comments when contacted on Thursday. 
The attorneys representing the shareholders also declined to immediately respond.
Jes Staley, who served as Barclays CEO from 2015 until 2021 and was previously a senior executive at JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), lost his appeal in London on Thursday against a potential ban from the financial sector. 
The UK's Financial Conduct Authority had proposed the ban last year, accusing him of misleading regulators about the nature of his Epstein connections. 
Staley has consistently denied knowing about Epstein's criminal activities and said he had no memory of certain compromising emails.
Epstein, arrested on sex trafficking charges in July 2019, died in his Manhattan jail cell five weeks later.
The case is Merritt v. Barclays Plc et al., filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California under case number 23-09217.

Shares of banking companies are trading higher amid Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's remarks about trade de-escalation with China.

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is reportedly implementing new performance management policies, including a two-year rehire ban for underperforming employees.
What Happened: The company's chief people officer, Amy Coleman, informed managers about new tools to accelerate high performance and quickly address low performance, reported Business Insider <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-email-details-new-policies-cull-low-performers-2025-4">on</a> Tuesday, citing an internal email.
A key change includes a policy that bars employees with poor performance scores from transferring within the company or being rehired for two years after their departure.
&#8220;Employees with zero and 60% Rewards outcomes and/or on an active PIP will not be eligible for internal transfers. Former employees who left with zero or 60% Rewards or during/after a PIP will not be eligible for rehire until two years after their termination date,&#8221; the email read.
Coleman's email also highlighted the importance of creating a transparent rewards process, with clearer guidelines for differentiating reward outcomes, the report said.

However, many affected Meta employees <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43723246/meta-faces-backlash-as-laid-off-workers-say-they-were-unfairly-targeted-despite-strong-performance-records">pushed back on the claim</a> in public forums, asserting that they had no prior record of underperformance.
Last year, Barclays PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BCS#NYSE">BCS</a>) also reportedly laid off hundreds of employees in its investment banking division as part of an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37865222/barclays-to-remove-underperformers-in-investment-banking-division-report">effort to remove underperformers</a>.
