Jes Staley Loses Bid to Overturn Ban Over Jeffrey Epstein Friendship

Former Barclays Plc boss Jes Staley lost a legal battle to overturn his ban from UK finance over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, all but ending his attempt to rehabilitate himself in the British financial services industry.

A London judge sided with the Financial Conduct Authority, ruling that the executive misled officials about the nature of the banker’s relationship with the late pedophile financier.
