Jerry del Missier, the former chief operating officer of Barclays, has hired a team of Morrison & Foerster attorneys to represent him in connection with investigations in both the United States and the United Kingdom into allegations of LIBOR rate-fixing at the British banking giant.
Del Missier, who resigned his Barclays post earlier this month, testified Monday in front of a U.K. parliamentary Treasury Select Committee probing the mushrooming LIBOR scandal. Appearing with him during the testimony were MoFo New York litigation partners Carl Loewenson Jr. and James Hough, as well as London-based regulatory partner Kevin Roberts, according to a firm spokesman.
