Was Barclays mis-selling? It's hardly a million dollar question - Telegraph


Hi Paul

The only thing wrong with this piece is the title, it uses the word 'was'.

One more point, this isn't the exclusive preserve of Barclays is it?

Oh, a few more points, this wouldn't have happened if:

1. The FSA hadn't brought in 'depolaristation'
2. The FSA had more than six people supervising the bank.
3. The government at the time hadn't put pressure on the regulators to let the banks regulate themselves.
4. The FSA had been more proactive with regard to 'provider influence'.
5. Barclays had a decent 'risk consultant', me for example.

The rest is history, or is it?

I have a few cases here which could make headlines soon.
