Experienced City Trader James Barclay Returns to His Roots to Assist UK Retail Investors

James Barclay, a veteran of 19 years in the financial industry, is bringing his expertise and knowledge to the UK through Barclay Capital Consult. His new firm aims to provide retail investors with exceptional service and professional insights to guide them on their financial journey and help them achieve their investment goals.

James obtained his PhD in economics from King’s College, Cambridge, and began his career with an internship at the esteemed family firm, Barclays Capital. He swiftly climbed the ranks, assuming various roles until eventually becoming the head of private wealth management.

In 2007, James relocated to New York City to work for Goldman Sachs on Wall Street, serving as the Vice President of international development and research. Throughout his tenure at Goldman Sachs, James collaborated closely with Lloyd Blankfein, the former CEO, and made significant contributions to the firm’s success.

Now, James has returned to his roots and founded Barclay Capital Consult, with the primary objective of supporting retail investors across the UK. While he still manages multibillion-dollar trading accounts for some of his former clients, James also finds gratification in assisting retail investors, believing they deserve the finest information to make profitable investments, just like his ultra-high-net-worth clients.

Equipped with extensive knowledge, experience, and influential connections in major financial powerhouses both in New York and “The City” (referring to the City of London), James is well-prepared to assist clients from all walks of life.

Thomas Reid, Senior Advisor at Barclay Capital Consult, expresses enthusiasm about working alongside James, stating, “We are delighted to have James on board. With his vast experience and expertise, he is undoubtedly the best leader I have ever had the pleasure of working with—a true legend of Wall Street! I can confidently say that this sentiment is shared by everyone here at Barclay Capital Consult. James now derives satisfaction from helping investors who wouldn’t typically have access to his level of investment ideas and opportunities. James wants to give something back, which is a testament to both his origins and his journey.”

James Barclay’s story is exceptional, as most prominent figures on Wall Street and in New York City tend to overlook retail client accounts with less than $5,000,000. James offers a distinctive proposition: Wall Street-level service and information without the need for a vast fortune to invest.
