Former Barclays boss Jes Staley had sex with a member of serial paedophile Jeffrey Epstein's staff, the banker told a court on the third day of his evidence as he appeals against a proposed financial services ban.
Britain's Financial Conduct Authority said in 2023 that it would ban Staley and fine him 1.8 million pounds ($2.3 million) for allegedly misleading the watchdog over his relationship with Epstein. He is giving evidence at London's Upper Tribunal this week.
The 68-year-old, who said on Tuesday that he had no idea about the late financier Epstein's "monstrous activities", was asked by the FCA's lawyer about evidence Staley had given in a lawsuit against him by his previous employer JPMorgan.
