Baringa Partners featured in previous reporting by @allthecitizens in March of this year, when we mapped £510m in Covid-19 contracts won by management consultancies.
Baringa featured among the top 10 contract winners, alongside the Big Four, Boston Consulting, Accenture, and McKinsey & Co and others who collectively made up £490m of this figure.

There's no assertion the contracts won by Baringa were done so illegally or improperly, but rather that this highlights yet another example in a long trend of contract wins by Conservative donating companies which @allthecitizens feels important to highlight for transparency.
