The fallout from sexual assault allegations against the founder of Odey Asset Management has continued, with Barclays reportedly the latest bank to look to distance itself from the firm.

Banks have looked to cut ties with the Mayfair-based hedge fund since a Financial Times investigation detailed 13 accusations of inappropriate behaviour against its former boss Crispin Odey, which he denies.
