Veteran U.S. Brokerage Lawyer McKay to Join Barclays
Reuters is reporting that Kevin McKay, who began his Wall Street legal career in 1978 at E.F. Hutton, will join Barclays PLC’s wealth and investment management division in the Americas next month as general counsel, a company spokeswoman said.
For the past 12 years McKay was general counsel of Dominick & Dominick, a New York City broker-dealer with fewer than 50 brokers that was purchased in January by Memphis, Tennessee-based Wunderlich Securities, according to the Reuters report.
He was briefly chief executive of the New York-based firm before the deal, and retained the general counsel title at Wunderlich.
