Barclays' (BCS) largest shareholder, Qatar, sells almost half of its stake in the British bank, adding pressure on CEO, months before he discloses a new strategy to boost performance.
Citigroup and Bank of America were left holding some shares in Barclays after they could not identify enough demand for a 510 million pound ($642 million) stake sold by Qatar Holding, people familiar with the matter told Reuters. The two bookrunners on the block trade set out on Monday to sell a 2.3% stake in the bank in a move by Qatar to cut back on its crisis-era investment in Britain's Barclays, which is struggling to reinvigorate its share price. Barclays, BofA and Citigroup declined to comment.
