Barclays calls for bank register

British lender Barclays has today called for a new industry body to be formed with the power to ban rogue bankers in the wake of the rate rigging scandal.

Barclays has suggested that bankers in key parts of the industry should be made to sign a public register from which they could be struck off, according to Sky News, which has seen a Barclays' submission to the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards.
