Barclays appoints Na Wei as Global Head of Leveraged Finance

With close to 20 years of experience in the Leveraged Finance market, Ms. Wei has extensive industry and product expertise, as well as proven leadership skills and a relentless focus on client coverage

Barclays today announces the appointment of Na Wei as Global Head of Leveraged Finance, reporting to Travis Barnes and Tom Johnson, Global Co-Heads of Capital Markets at Barclays.

Under Ms. Wei’s leadership of Barclays’ Leveraged Finance business in EMEA the firm achieved a top three ranking in 2023 according to Dealogic data, up from number seven in 2022. Ms. Wei has also been instrumental in materially increasing Barclays’ market share with the firm’s top twenty Financial Sponsors clients.

Commenting on Ms. Wei’s expanded role, Travis Barnes said, “As the financing market continues to evolve and become more complex, we are confident that under Na’s leadership we will be best positioned for future success. Na has a proven track record of growing business and market share, and of standout service for our clients.”

Tom Johnson added, “Through her leadership of the EMEA franchise, Na installed a disciplined focus on delivering strategic capital to our most important clients. We firmly believe that she can replicate this mindset across our global business, putting us in the strongest possible position to further increase our market share in the US and globally.”
