Barclays is mulling whether to relocate its European headquarters from Dublin to Paris as banks continue to reorganise in the wake of Brexit.

According to a report published by the lender's Irish subsidiary on 3 August first reported by Bloomberg, the possible move could result in a "small number of roles" moving to the French capital over the space of two years in a bid to "be closer to the balance of operations" on the continent.
