Former chancellor and current Conservative MP Nadhim Zahawi is reported to be in talks to chair The Very Group following Dirk Van den Berghe stepping down after two years.

Aidan Barclay, part of the Barclay family which owns The Very Group, is currently interim non-executive chair until a replacement is found.

The talks with Zahawi are said to be “ongoing” as city sources told Sky News that there was no certainty that he would take the job.
