What's interesting about this is that the latest departures come from the project finance side rather than the banking/capmarkets group. The relationship of the banking/capmarkets group with Verrier has been at the core of much of the troubles in recent years (most of the departures to date have been totally predictable) whereas the projects group has been very much part of the inner circle, due to a large degree to the historical bias towards projects within the finance practice globally. The Middle East was a key personal priority for Stopford for example. So this is no longer about silos and personalities and is instead something much more fundamental, which can only mean that there's much more of this to come.
