Brunswick, the public relations firm, said yesterday it intended to hire an important law firm to carry out an internal investigation after the husband of one of its partners was charged in an insider trading scheme that used information from his wife.
The decision forms part of a damage-limitation exercise by Brunswick, one of the City of London's leading financial public relations agencies. The firm has already sent an email to all of its clients informing them of the incident and emphasising there was no evidence Mr Devlin had accessed any of its internal systems.
