Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, knows a thing or two about banking, and isn’t afraid to share his views. He sat on the UK’s Committee for Banking Standards. Last year, he took on the payday lenders and called on the UK authorities to promote regional banks based outside London. But there was a time when he was a big fan of British banks. That was when he was the treasurer of Enterprise Oil, back in the 1980s.
