court: The statements were originally issued to Serious Fraud Office investigators in 2014, according to The Guardian. The court heard that Varley, who served as chief executive until 2010, had global ambitions for Barclays that meant expanding foreign ownership and increasing the bank's non-UK income to 75% of the total. A jury at Southwark crown court was read statements from three of the four defendants facing charges, including the former chief executive, John Varley. After striking a relationship with the China Development Bank in 2007, Varley said he was interested in developing a similar relationship with the Qataris, building on that example of how to develop a valuable collaboration .
