Pension funds call for pay clawback at Barclays
03 July 2012
Joanne Segars, Chief Executive of the National Association of Pension Funds (NAPF), commented on Barclays:
“Shareholders, including pension funds, have been negatively affected by their investments in Barclays. Shareholders want any severance payments to be kept to a contractual minimum, and clawback mechanisms for past pay and bonuses should be fully explored. There must be no reward for failure. Barclays now need to regroup and focus on serving their customers and clients, and delivering value for shareholders.”
