Two former junior Barclays traders have been unanimously acquitted by a London jury of conspiring to rig Libor benchmark interest rates in a blow to the UK Serious Fraud Office.
Ryan Reich, a 35-year-old American, and Greek national Stylianos Contogoulas, 45, walked free on Thursday after their second trial on a single charge of conspiracy to defraud.
