Barclays Plc announced a raft of promotions, led by the appointments of Jean-Francois “JF” Astier and John Miller as co-heads of investment banking and members of a new management team charged with driving growth for the business.
The pair will supervise the firm’s coverage, product and portfolio management, and will continue to report to Paul Compton, global head of investment banking and co-president of Barclays Bank Plc, the firm told staff on Tuesday. Astier was previously global head of capital markets and mergers and acquisitions, while Miller was global head of coverage investment banking.
