Dow Jones News
Barclays Wealth, a unit of U.K.-based Barclays PLC (BCS,
BARC.LN), recently recruited a team of investment representatives
from Oppenheimer & Co. as the firm continues to boost its
presence in the U.S.
William Scott and Steve Pritsios joined Barclays' office in
Washington on Jan. 15.
The two representatives had a combined $1 million in annual
production and managed $200 million in client assets. However, a
person familiar with the team estimated their combined production
at $600,000 with $40 million in assets under management.
Prior to joining Barclays, Scott and Pritsios worked for nearly
a year at Oppenheimer & Co., a unit of Oppenheimer Holdings
Inc. (OPY), after a six-month stint at Stanford Group. The team
previously worked at FBR Capital Markets for nearly five years,
according to Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records.
The addition of the two representatives comes as Barclays has
hired 50 such professionals in 2009 and plans to recruit more than
100 more in 2010.
