Paul Moore (banking manager)

Paul Russell Moore (born October 1958) is best known as the HBOS whistleblower following his dismissal from Halifax Bank of Scotland in 2004. Moore was the bank’s Head of Group Regulatory Risk and was fired from the role by HBOS Group Chief Executive Office James Crosby following his warnings to the Board about HBOS’s risky sales strategies.

In 2009 Moore’s evidence about HBOS was presented to the UK House of Commons Treasury Select Committee and resulted in James Crosby resigning as Deputy Chairman of the Financial Services Authority (now the Financial Conduct Authority). Crosby, who was also an adviser to the then British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, later gave up his knighthood and part of his pension after a Parliamentary report was highly critical of his, HBOS Chairman Lord Dennis Stevenson and HBOS CEO Andy Crosby’s management of the bank. Since his dismissal Moore has been shunned by the financial community and has been unable to find another job in the sector. He has endured depression and alcoholism. He has continued to fight for change in the financial system and to bring those responsible for the 2008 crisis to justice.

Paul Moore (priest)

Paul Henry Moore (born 1959) is the first Anglican archdeacon not to be assigned part of a diocese to look after. Instead he is responsible for "mission development" in the Diocese of Winchester.

Moore was educated at Balliol College, Oxford and Wycliffe Hall, Oxford. After a curacy at St Andrew's Church, Oxford, he was vicar of Kildwick and then Cowplain. He was Rural Dean of Havant from 2004 to 2009 and was an honorary canon of Portsmouth Cathedral in 2013. He was one of the early proponents of "Messy Church", which he introduced to his parish in 2004.
