Obituary: Russell Julius, 1960-2018
By Mark Baker
It was the hair you noticed first, as jumbled as a thicket and as untameable. He liked to say it gave him something of the Medusa. Then the voice, excitedly gabbling about deals or bankers - it was usually one or the other. Then the audience, the huddle that would develop around him, catching the thoughts of a man forever fascinated by his work.
Eventually the circle would part wide enough for a newcomer to be admitted. The flow would pause for them to be welcomed by the centre of attention himself, blinking through glasses and with glass in hand. And so would they complete their introduction to Russell Julius.

6 年Sad to see the warriors of the glory day of the City of London disappear one by one, when one's word was one's bond and no one had ever heard of a compliance officer and the LSE regulations were a small black book with loose sheets held together in a sort of ring binder....anyone still remembers this?
