Bad news for Africa – Barclays is coming

Posted on

From the FT this morning:

Barclays will place the booming African market firmly at the centre of its growth strategy over the coming years as it plans to shake-up a business that has so far failed to make the most of opportunities in the continent.

This is bad news for Africa.

Expect more tax haven abuse to follow. That’s the core of Barclays’ plan for the continent.
