Barclays Capital has recruited a new director, Tyrone Cooney, to strengthen its financial sponsor coverage team just days after it announced plans to take on up to 120 investment bankers.
Last week, Naguib Kheraj, Barclays Capital's head of investment banking, told Financial News that the bank planned to hire between 80 and 120 bankers to expand its investment banking operations in Europe, the US and Asia (Financial News, February 12-18).
