Timeline

1929

Sir Martin Wakefield Jacomb (born 11 November 1929) is a former Chancellor of the University of Buckingham and Chairman of Canary Wharf Group.

1955

He was called to the Bar at Inner Temple in 1955 and practised as a barrister until 1968 before embarking upon a successful career in business.

1976

He was a vice-chairman, Kleinwort Benson Ltd, from 1976 to 1985, and a deputy chairman of Barclays Bank between 1985 and 1993.

Jacomb was educated at Eton College and Worcester College, Oxford.

1985

In 1985, he was appointed Knight Bachelor by HM The Queen.

1986

In 1986, he described insider trading as a "victimless crime."

1998

In 1998, he was appointed the third Chancellor of the University of Buckingham in succession to Baroness Thatcher, who in turn succeeded Lord Hailsham of St Marylebone.

1999

He was installed in 1999.

According to the University of Buckingham, which is one of the two British private universities, "He [Jacomb] is a strong believer in the need for universities to be independent of the government".

He has written that if universities are "to nurture genuinely free and creative academic research" and "be the guardians of liberty which a free society needs" they must be independent of government funding.

He has written that the University of Oxford should become private in order to avoid an authoritarian government imposing restrictions on admissions.

Further, the university's academics will only be able to challenge prevailing opinion if they are independent of government funding.

Dependence on government funding, he has argued, has had disastrous effects on the higher education sector in continental Europe.

2010

Jacomb retired from the chancellorship in March 2010.

He was succeeded by Lord Tanlaw.
