Eversheds Sutherland, Winston & Strawn and BCL Burton Copeland are advising three former Barclays lawyers who the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has decided not to charge in connection with the Qatar capital raising case.
Yesterday (20 June), the SFO announced that it was charging four former Barclays executives for “conspiracy to commit fraud and the provision of unlawful financial assistance”, after a lengthy investigation into bank’s capital raising arrangements with Qatari investors during the 2008 financial crisis.
