24 hours to tame the banks

TO GEORGE OSBORNE AND ALL EU FINANCE MINISTERS:

As concerned citizens we call on you to cap bankers’ bonuses across the EU to no more than the amount of their fixed salary, unless agreed by a super-majority of shareholders. This is a crucial part of preventing bankers taking excessive risks which can destabilise their institutions and our entire economies. We count on you to take this step to tame the banking giants.

Mr Diamond keeps his bonuses and other payments from previous years which are said to amount to £120 million since 2005.

Marcus Agius, the executive chairman of Barclays, said Mr Diamond had “voluntarily” forgone up to £20 million of entitlements.
