Scott will join Barclays in September, reporting to Adeel Khan, Co-Head of Global Markets, and be based in New York.

In this role, Scott will lead the Barclays Global Equities team and have oversight and responsibility for Equities Distribution and Prime.
Ronnie will join Barclays in June, reporting to Stephen Dainton, Co-Head of Global Markets, and be based in New York.

“We have made terrific progress in growing our Equities business over the last four years, including delivering £1bn in incremental revenue and increasing market share by 150bps between 2019-2022. Looking ahead, Scott and Ronnie will help us continue to evolve the business, execute our next set of priorities, and deliver our next phase of growth.”
