Barclays Wealth hires Spanish head from Deutsche

Barclays Wealth, the wealth management division of UK bank Barclays, has hired a head for its Spanish business from Deutsche Bank of Germany.

Íñigo Calderón has over 20 years private banking industry experience and joins from Deutsche Bank, where most recently he was deputy head of the private wealth management arm of the business, based in Spain.

He will be based in Madrid, reporting to Emmanuel Fievet, head of international private bank in Europe, Middle East and Africa and Pedro Santaella, head of Barclays investment banking and investment management, Spain and Portugal.

Calderón will be responsible for strategically growing the Spanish business and for coordinating all front office, investment & product office, infrastructure, and resource functions.

Tom Kalaris, CEO of Barclays Wealth, said: “Given our serious global growth ambitions, one of our strategic imperatives is to build on and improve our Iberian operation; strengthening the linkages across the Barclays organisation in the region.”

Relocation, relocation, relocation

Banks have never been shy of firing staff at the merest whiff of a downturn. First the fat, then the muscle and finally the bone. In the past, cuts have been so deep that firms have found it hard to benefit when the markets rebounded, paying over the odds to restaff at speed. Such wild oscillations in staffing numbers are known as “doing a Merrill”.
