New Delhi. Lord Jo Johnson, brother of former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, is in discussion these days after resigning from the post of non-executive director of a British investment firm associated with Adani Group. But very few people will know that Johnson has also worked in Delhi. Joe Johnson has also done journalism before stepping into politics. According to the report, Lord Joe Johnson was posted in New Delhi as the South Asia bureau chief of the Financial Times from 2005 to 2008.
During his tenure, many of his articles regarding the financial policies of the then Government of India were published in the Financial Times. According to the report of Financial Times, Jo Johnson was born in 1971. He started his career as an investment banker at Deutsche Bank. After this did journalism for the Financial Times. After this, he stepped into politics and became an MP, and then became a minister.
Lord Johnson, 51, was appointed director of London-based Elara Capital in June last year and resigned on Wednesday, The Financial Times reported, citing UK Companies House figures. On the same day, Adani Group decided to withdraw the FPO. Elara describes itself as a capital market company that works to raise funds for Indian companies.
This company was also included in the book runner of the FPO. Johnson insisted that he had been given assurances about the company’s standing and that he resigned as a director “because of his lack of knowledge in this area”. According to the newspaper, Elara’s asset management business came into the limelight after US-based research firm Hindenburg Research accused Adani group companies of fraud.
