Unreasonable Mentors
Simon Ollerenshaw
Managing Director, Head of Corporate Treasury Coverage, Corporate & Investment Banking, Barclays
Simon is an Unreasonable Mentor. Simon has participated in 8 programs, including Unreasonable Impact World Forum 2024, and has advised over 116 Unreasonable companies.
30 years’ experience in corporate finance and capital raising (equity, debt and derivatives) from working and living in the UK, Europe, Asia, US and emerging markets. Currently run a team which coordinates all of Barclays’ activities with our largest corporate clients. 15 years at Barclays, with a strong network across all of our business lines.
Capital raising includes structuring advice, price-setting, helping clients to build and articulate an investment case, and co-ordinating the marketing process with investors. Worked with a very diverse range of clients from start-ups to multinationals, to governments and supranational entities.
My team works across all of a company's typical banking needs, from capital raising to cash management, payments, FX, risk management, credit cards, through to ESG and innovation.
This is all team sport: to deliver proper advice and service to clients, we must be closely aligned to a very wide range of colleagues internally.
