Ex-Barclays Plc trader Colin Bermingham was convicted of helping to manipulate a benchmark interest rate by a London jury, the ninth conviction secured by U.K. prosecutors in a seven-year probe of rate-rigging.

The jury found Bermingham guilty Thursday in a 10-2 vote following a two-month trial. Two days earlier, the panel found his ex-colleague Carlo Palombo guilty, while another former co-worker, Sisse Bohart, was cleared of manipulating the Euro interbank offered rate.
