Barclays has been fined £42m for its poor handling of financial crime risks linked to two clients, including a gold bullion business run by James Stunt, former son-in-law of the Formula One tycoon Bernie Ecclestone.

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said the bulk of the penalties, about £39.3m, related to a failure to properly screen Stunt & Co and its relationship with Fowler Oldfield, a Bradford jeweller now linked to a large money-laundering operation.

The failures took place between 2015 and 2021, and Stunt & Co ultimately received £46.8m from Fowler Oldfield.
