Barclays has appointed Ramin Naji as Managing Director and Head of Healthcare & Real Estate for Asia Pacific, a role focused on transaction origination and advisory support for clients in the region. Naji brings extensive healthcare banking experience from Deutsche Bank and Bank of America Merrill Lynch. The appointment is part of Barclays' strategy to deepen client relationships in higher-margin segments and expand its capital markets and financing ties in Asia Pacific, where it competes with global peers such as JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs. While the hire supports the bank's growth narrative, it also highlights execution risks related to expanding complex businesses and cross-border capital markets work, alongside existing concerns about funding mix and bad loans.
