'It's not vital to spend five days a week in the office': Mike Regnier the bank boss who works from home
While the big beasts of Wall Street rail against WFH, Mike Regnier of Santander UK says he wouldn’t have taken the job if he had had to commute all week.
While Goldman Sachs's David Solomon has described home working as an "aberration", and JP Morgan’s Jamie Dimon calls himself a "skeptic" of the trend that took off during the pandemic, Mike Regnier made home working a condition of taking the job in 2022. He says he would have turned down the Spanish-owned lender had it refused to let him work from his family home in Harrogate, Yorkshire, where he has lived since the early 2000s.

Patrick Thomson: the man who 'helped save UK pensions'
Patrick Thomson, chair of the Investment Association.
The chair of the Investment Association says he has his army training to thank for the cool head he kept during the crisis sparked by the mini-budget.
Patrick Thomson less than two months ago he would have been anything but. Then, the UK's £10 trillion asset management industry was reeling from a market meltdown and the near-collapse of a string of niche pension funds in the wake of then-chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng's mini-budget.
Thomson, who had joined the Investment Association as its new chair that very week, had to act fast: the lobby group coordinated with Treasury officials and regulators including the Bank of England in trying to stem an asset sell-off that threatened to infect other parts of the financial system.

Patrick Thomson: the man who 'helped save UK pensions'
Patrick Thomson, chair of the Investment Association.
The chair of the Investment Association says he has his army training to thank for the cool head he kept during the crisis sparked by the mini-budget.
Patrick Thomson less than two months ago he would have been anything but. Then, the UK's £10 trillion asset management industry was reeling from a market meltdown and the near-collapse of a string of niche pension funds in the wake of then-chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng's mini-budget.
Thomson, who had joined the Investment Association as its new chair that very week, had to act fast: the lobby group coordinated with Treasury officials and regulators including the Bank of England in trying to stem an asset sell-off that threatened to infect other parts of the financial system.

Chris Pitt of First Direct: 'We're the best unfound bank in Britain'
The chief executive, Chris Pitt, pulled out all the stops for customers with their mortgages during the mini-budget turmoil. Now he wants to double their number.
Chris Pitt had an unusual start to his banking career. In the middle of a history degree at Loughborough University in the early 1980s, the working-class lad from east London’s Upton Park found himself with a holiday job usually earmarked for trustworthy retirees: handling cheques worth millions of pounds.
Pitt claims he was never tempted to take the money and run. "You've got to remember I'm a Jesuit schoolboy. It's not in my DNA to do that," he grins.
It was that dependability that helped him climb the ladder at HSBC, where, more than 30 years after his cheque-shuttling years, he is now running its branchless retail bank, First Direct.
Chris Pitt CEO First Direct Bank at the Banks Headquarters, Leeds, UK.
