Description

IRN financial editor Robin Amlot interviews Barclays bank chairman John Quinton about the report of profits of 51 million pounds – down from 378 million, and on the future for the economy. These are the worst results from any major UK bank for the first half of 1992 and poor housing market and recession in general is to blame.
