F&C Asset Management has lost its challenge to a multi-million pound sex discrimination ruling against the group and now faces a remedy hearing where it could be ordered to pay up to ã19m (â¬23.9m) in compensation.
The challenge relates to claims made by the former head of the legal team at F&C, Gillian Switalski, that she was sexually discriminated against, harassed and victimised by her employers, and in particular, her line manager Marrack Tonkin.
