Does Barrenjoey plan to kill off the Magellan Financial brand?
Several options are under consideration by the investment bank’s top brass as what appears to be a reverse takeover of the funds management giant draws closer.

Both options are being seriously considered by Barrenjoey’s top brass as the Matthew Grounds and Guy Fowler-led firm inches closer to sealing what appears to be a reverse takeover of funds management house Magellan.
