Barclays Revamps Asia-Pacific Investment Banking Leadership Team

Barclays Plc made a series of key leadership changes at its investment banking division in the Asia-Pacific region following the appointment of Avinash Thakur as head of the business in May.

Richard Satchwell, who currently leads the bank’s operations in Australia, will become head of capital markets financing for the broader region, according to a statement. Satchwell, who was also overseeing the firm’s investment banking business in Australia, will relocate to Singapore for his new role and lead debt and equity financing transactions across the Asia Pacific.
