Guernsey Finance Chief Rupert Pleasant Resigns After Compromising Video Circulates Internally

The board has opened an independent investigation with acting chief Barnaby Molloy overseeing operations.

Overview

  • Acting CEO Barnaby Molloy said the conduct fell significantly short of standards and confirmed both individuals are no longer employed by Guernsey Finance.
  • The incident arose when a recorded meeting was left running, capturing the CEO and a female colleague in a compromising situation that was later shared with staff.
  • Reports say the footage also showed the pair criticising colleagues before the clip was circulated inside the organisation.
  • Pleasant’s profile was removed from the organisation’s website, his LinkedIn page is no longer public, and the board limited further comment pending the probe.
  • Guernsey Finance said it is working with stakeholders and focusing on staff wellbeing, and the woman’s husband stated he is standing by her during a difficult time.
