BARC Barclays Plc

-- Barclays PLC (BARC.LN) investment bankers are getting prepared for a double-digit fall in their 2019 bonus pool, FT sources say.

-- This measure comes after the bank cut the amount it set aside for bonuses by almost a quarter to the lowest level since 2016 in the first half of the year.

-- "We are not asking people to get slaughtered, but it will be noticeable," one of the people said. "We underpaid in 2017 and made up a lot of that ground in 2018 under Tim Throsby, and now we are obviously asking for some of that back," FT sources say.
