The Decline Of Barclays Bank
This book reveals how Barclays rose to be one of the biggest and most admired banks in the world and why it fell so dramatically from that position of eminence. It approached the Millennium without a leader or a coherent strategy.
Why did Martin Taylor, one of Britain's brightest business leaders, storm out of his job as Barclays' chief executive in November 1998? Why did BZW, once seen as Britain's last hope for a national champion in the field of investment banking, brought down, and what impact does this collapse continue to have on the City of London.
While answering these questions, this book also reveals the future for Barclays: independent survival, merger or takeover?
