Help Pressure Barclays Bank to Reconsider MSBs Accounts Closure


Petition by Farhan Hassan

Millions of livelihoods in the horn of Africa and other countries are in jeopardy following the recent decision by Barclays bank to its accounts with Somali Money Service Businesses (MSBs).
With such a short timeframe, and without having provided a comprehensive explanation as to why Barclays wishes to sever its relationships with the MSBs, these companies are understandably finding it very difficult to find new partners to work with.

We are writing to request that the UK Government works with British banks to find a durable solution to the recent decision of Barclays to close Some have already been closed. Others are facing closure and uncertain future.

Please join Petitioner Farhan Hassan and sign a petition Calling on the UK Government to work with British banks to find a durable solution to the recent decision of Barclays to close its accounts with Somali MSBs.
