Roger Allan Jenkins (born 30 September 1955) is a British financier currently awaiting trial for conspiracy to commit fraud and the provision of unlawful financial assistance by the Serious Fraud Office.
In May 2018, the charges brought against Barclays Bank were dismissed by the court, but the charges against Jenkins were retained.From 1994 to 2009, he worked for Barclays in a variety of roles, including as chief executive of Barclays Capital's Private Equity Group, and from April 2008 as Executive Chairman of Investment Banking and Investment Management for the Middle East.In 2008, he played a key role in a £7.3 billion "investment" in Barclays supposedly made by the ruling families of Abu Dhabi and Qatar, and by the Qatari sovereign wealth fund which the UK government has since said was a fraud, and which Jenkins is now being prosecuted for and faces up to 22 years in prison.
He was a member of the Management Committee and Investment Committee of the Brazilian investment bank BTG Pactual from 2011 to 2013.
He was responsible for raising their Private Equity Fund.Estimates suggested that in 2005, Jenkins made somewhere between £40 million and £75 million, making him reputedly the highest paid banker in the City of London.His brother, David Jenkins, is a convicted criminal, drug trafficker, steroid user, and admitted informant.
