Sir Gerry Grimstone will step down as chairman of Barclays’ investment bank at the end of the month.

The move follows his decision to step down as chairman of Standard Life Aberdeen at the end of last year.

Sir Gerry said: “After 20 years sitting on the boards of a number of listed companies, and having recently stepped down from the chairmanship of Standard Life Aberdeen, it is an appropriate moment for a change.”



He added: “There will doubtless be many other exciting public and private opportunities to pursue. I’m leaving Barclays in very good shape and I wish it very well for the future.”

According to insider.co.uk, he will be succeeded by Nigel Higgins.
