    LONDON, April 6 (Reuters) - Barclays  BARC.L  has poached
Greenhill's managing director Anthony Samengo-Turner to lead its
merger and acquisition unit in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

biggest M&A markets.
    Samengo-Turner, who co-headed Greenhill's operations across
German-speaking countries, has been involved in a number of
major transactions across that region, with a focus on
healthcare and chemicals.
    "This appointment supports our commitment to further
strengthen both our banking capabilities and our broader
European franchise," said Reid Marsh, Barclays' head of banking
for Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific.
    Samengo-Turner will report to Pier Luigi Colizzi who heads
