Director dealings: Burberry finance chief ups stake

Burberry's chief operating and financial officer Julie Brown bought £180,000 of shares in the London-listed of the British fashion house on Monday.

Brown, who took on the dual role back in January 2017, purchased 8,543 shares at an average price of £21.02p each.

Earlier in July, Burberry revealed that it had got off to good start in the first quarter, with underlying sales up 3%. There was no change to full-year guidance for underlying sales but some easing of currency effects was expected at current rates.

As of 1620 BST, Burberry shares had dipped 0.43% to 2,099p.
