Notes
The terms Barclays and Group refer to Barclays PLC together with its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise stated, the income statement analysis compares the year ended 31 December 2022 to the corresponding 12 months of 2021 and the three months ended 31 December 2022 to the corresponding three months in 2021 and balance sheet analysis as at 31 December 2022 with comparatives relating to 31 December 2021. The historical financial information used for the purposes of such analysis has been restated. Please refer to Supplementary Information contained herein for further information. The abbreviations '£m' and '£bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Pounds Sterling respectively; the abbreviations '$m' and '$bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of US Dollars respectively; and the abbreviations '€m' and '€bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Euros respectively.
There are a number of key judgement areas, for example impairment calculations, which are based on models and which are subject to ongoing adjustment and modifications. Reported numbers reflect best estimates and judgements at the given point in time.
Relevant terms that are used in this document but are not defined under applicable regulatory guidance or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are explained in the results glossary, which can be accessed at home.barclays/investor-relations.
The information in this announcement, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 14 February 2023, does not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022, which contained an unmodified audit report under Section 495 of the Companies Act 2006 (which did not make any statements under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006) have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies in accordance with Section 441 of the Companies Act 2006.

Barclays is a frequent issuer in the debt capital markets and regularly meets with investors via formal road-shows and other ad hoc meetings. Consistent with its usual practice, Barclays expects that from time to time over the coming quarter it will meet with investors globally to discuss these results and other matters relating to the Group.
Non-IFRS performance measures
Barclays' management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods and provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by Barclays' management. However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well. Refer to the appendix on pages 77 to 83 for further information and calculations of non-IFRS performance measures included throughout this document, and the most directly comparable IFRS measures.
Forward-looking statements
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Group. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results or other financial condition or performance measures could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as 'may', 'will', 'seek', 'continue', 'aim', 'anticipate', 'target', 'projected', 'expect', 'estimate', 'intend', 'plan', 'goal', 'believe', 'achieve' or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements can be made in writing but also may be made verbally by directors, officers and employees of the Group (including during management presentations) in connection with this document. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements or guidance regarding or relating to the Group's future financial position, income levels, costs, assets and liabilities, impairment charges, provisions, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, capital distributions (including dividend policy and share buybacks), return on tangible equity, projected levels of growth in banking and financial markets, industry trends, any commitments and targets (including environmental, social and governance (ESG) commitments and targets), business strategy, plans and objectives for future operations and other statements that are not historical or current facts. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. Forward-looking statements speak only as at the date on which they are made. Forward-looking statements may be affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation: changes in legislation, regulation and the interpretation thereof, changes in IFRS and other accounting standards, including practices with regard to the interpretation and application thereof and emerging and developing ESG reporting standards; the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations; the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities; the Group's ability along with governments and other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change effectively; environmental, social and geopolitical risks and incidents and similar events beyond the Group's control; the impact of competition; capital, leverage and other regulatory rules applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions, including inflation; volatility in credit and capital markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; higher or lower asset valuations; changes in credit ratings of any entity within the Group or any securities issued by it; changes in counterparty risk; changes in consumer behaviour; the direct and indirect consequences of the Russia-Ukraine war on European and global macroeconomic conditions, political stability and financial markets; direct and indirect impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic; instability as a result of the UK's exit from the European Union (EU), the effects of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement and any disruption that may subsequently result in the UK and globally; the risk of cyber-attacks, information or security breaches or technology failures on the Group's reputation, business or operations; the Group's ability to access funding; and the success of acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these factors are beyond the Group's control. As a result, the Group's actual financial position, results, financial and non-financial metrics or performance measures or its ability to meet commitments and targets may differ materially from the statements or guidance set forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors which may impact the Group's future financial condition and performance are identified in Barclays PLC's filings with the SEC (including, without limitation, Barclays PLC's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the financial year ended 31 December 2022), which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Subject to Barclays PLC's obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of any relevant jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the UK and the US) in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Performance Highlights
In 2022 Barclays delivered a profit before tax of £7.0bn and return on tangible equity (RoTE) of 10.4%, with total capital distributions equivalent to c.13.4p per share
C. S. Venkatakrishnan, Group Chief Executive, commented "Barclays performed strongly in 2022. Each business delivered income growth, with Group income up 14%. We achieved our RoTE target of over 10%, maintained a strong Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio of 13.9%, and returned capital to shareholders. We are cautious about global economic conditions, but continue to see growth opportunities across our businesses through 2023." |
Key financial metrics:
| Income | Cost: income ratio | Profit before tax | Attributable profit | RoTE | EPS | TNAV per share | CET1 ratio | Total capital return1 |
FY22 | £25.0bn | 67% | £7.0bn | £5.0bn | 10.4% | 30.8p | 295p | 13.9% | c.13.4p equivalent |
Q422 | £5.8bn | 69% | £1.3bn | £1.0bn | 8.9% | 6.5p |
Demonstrating execution against our three strategic priorities:
· | Deliver next generation digitised consumer financial services: simplifying and upgrading online banking services - with over 10.5 million Barclays UK mobile banking app users, and log-ins up 8% year-on-year. c.220k 'Rainy Day Saver' accounts opened online since launch on 29 September 2022, 41% are new or re-joining Blue Rewards customers. In the US Consumer Bank, the Gap portfolio2 integration onto our platform doubled our US customer base to over 20 million |
· | Deliver sustainable growth in the Corporate and Investment Bank (CIB): 114bps of revenue share gain in Global Markets from 2019-20223; second fastest growth rate across the top 10 global peers. Investment in Financing businesses delivered more stable, high returning income of £2.9bn in 2022 reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16% since 2019 |
· | Capture opportunities as we transition to a low-carbon economy: new expanded target to facilitate $1 trillion of Sustainable and Transition Financing by the end of 2030. The Group's Sustainable Impact Capital investment mandate is now £500m by the end of 2027 |
2022 Performance highlights4:
· | Group attributable profit of £5.0bn and RoTE of 10.4%, with all operating divisions delivering double-digit returns | |
| - | Excluding the impact of Over-issuance of Securities in the US (Over-issuance of Securities)5, RoTE was 11.6% |
· | Group profit before impairment of £8.2bn, up 9% year-on-year | |
· | Group income of £25.0bn, up 14% year-on-year with broad-based momentum across our operating divisions and the benefit from FX: | |
| - | CIB income increased by 8%; the best full year for both Global Markets and FICC6, and strong performance in Transaction banking, more than offsetting the impact of a reduced fee pool in Investment Banking7 |
| - | Consumer, Cards and Payments (CC&P) income increased by 35% supported by higher balances in US cards and Private Bank with turnover growth in Payments |
| - | Barclays UK income increased by 11% primarily driven by the rising rate environment |
· | Group operating expenses were £16.7bn, reflecting £1.6bn of litigation and conduct charges, primarily driven by the Over-issuance of Securities | |
| - | Group operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct were £15.1bn, up 6% year-on-year, reflecting the impact of FX and inflation |
· | Credit impairment charges were £1.2bn, with a loan loss rate (LLR) of 30bps, reflecting macroeconomic deterioration, partially offset by the utilisation of post-model adjustments (PMAs) for macroeconomic uncertainty and the release of COVID-19 related adjustments informed by refreshed scenarios. Coverage ratios at the portfolio level remain strong | |
· | CET1 ratio of 13.9% and tangible net asset value (TNAV) per share of 295p | |
· | Capital distributions: total dividend for 2022 of 7.25p per share (2021: 6.0p), including a 5.0p per share 2022 full year dividend. Intend to initiate a share buyback of up to £0.5bn, bringing the total share buybacks announced in relation to 2022 to £1.0bn and total capital return equivalent to c.13.4p per share |
1 | Includes total dividend for 2022 of 7.25p per share and total share buybacks announced in relation to 2022 of £1.0bn. |
2 | The Gap portfolio refers to the Gap Inc. US credit card portfolio. |

5 | Denotes the Over-issuance of Securities under Barclays Bank PLC's (BBPLC) US shelf registration statements on Form F-3 filed with the SEC in 2018 and 2019. See page 5 for reconciliation of Barclays' performance excluding the impact of the Over-issuance of Securities. |

7 | Data source: Dealogic for the period covering 1 January to 31 December 2022. |
Q422 Performance highlights1:
· | Attributable profit was £1.0bn and RoTE was 8.9% with profit before impairment of £1.8bn, up 29% year-on-year with positive cost: income jaws of 6% |
· | Group income was £5.8bn, up 12% year-on-year including the benefit from FX, with strong performances in Barclays UK and CC&P. Within CIB, strong performances in Global Markets and Transaction banking were more than offset by reduced income in Investment Banking and Corporate Lending |
· | Group operating expenses were £4.0bn, up 6% year-on-year, reflecting the impact of FX, inflation and investment in the business |
· | Credit impairment charges were £0.5bn with an LLR of 49bps. The deteriorating macroeconomic forecast resulted in an increased charge, partially offset by utilising economic uncertainty PMAs |
Outlook:
· | Returns: targeting RoTE of greater than 10% in 2023 |
· | Income: diversified income streams continue to position the Group well for the current economic and market environment including higher interest rates. In 2023, Barclays UK net interest margin (NIM) is expected to be greater than 3.20%2 |
· | Costs: targeting a cost: income ratio percentage in the low 60s in 2023, investing for growth whilst progressing towards the Group's medium-term target of below 60% |
· | Impairment: expect an LLR of 50-60bps in 2023, based on the current macroeconomic outlook |
· | Capital: expect to operate within the CET1 ratio target range of 13-14% |
· | Capital returns: capital distribution policy incorporates a progressive ordinary dividend, supplemented with buybacks as appropriate |

Group Finance Director's Review
2022 Group performance1
· | Barclays delivered a profit before tax of £7,012m (2021: £8,194m), RoTE of 10.4% (2021: 13.1%) and earnings per share (EPS) of 30.8p (2021: 36.5p) | |
· | The Group has a diverse income profile across businesses and geographies including a significant presence in the US. The 10% appreciation of average USD against GBP positively impacted income and profits and adversely impacted credit impairment charges and total operating expenses | |
· | Group income increased to £24,956m (2021: £21,940m) | |
| - | Excluding the income benefit of £292m relating to hedging arrangements to manage the risks of the rescission offer in relation to the Over-issuance of Securities, total Group income was £24,664m, up 12% year-on-year |
· | Group operating expenses increased to £16,730m (2021: £14,659m) mainly due to higher litigation and conduct charges: | |
| - | Group operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct charges increased 6% to £15,133m, reflecting the impact of inflation and the appreciation of average USD against GBP |
| - | Litigation and conduct charges were £1,597m (2021: £397m) including £966m from the Over-issuance of Securities |
· | Credit impairment charges were £1,220m (2021: £653m net release). The increase in charges reflect macroeconomic deterioration and a gradual increase in delinquencies, partially offset by the utilisation of macroeconomic uncertainty PMAs and the release of COVID-19 related adjustments informed by refreshed scenarios. Total coverage ratio decreased to 1.4% (December 2021: 1.6%) driven by changes in portfolio mix and write-offs. Coverage levels remain strong | |
· | The effective tax rate (ETR) was 14.8% (2021: 13.9%). The tax charge included a £346m re-measurement of the Group's UK deferred tax assets (DTAs) due to the enactment of legislation to reduce the UK banking surcharge rate. Excluding this DTAs downward re-measurement, the ETR was 9.9%, reflecting tax benefits in the current year, primarily arising from tax relief related to government bonds linked to the high prevailing rate of inflation in 2022, as well as beneficial adjustments in respect of prior years | |
· | Attributable profit was £5,023m (2021: £6,205m) | |
· | Total assets increased to £1,513.7bn (December 2021: £1,384.3bn) reflecting higher levels of activity as we supported our clients through a period of market volatility, growth in customer lending, and appreciation of USD against GBP | |
· | TNAV per share increased to 295p (December 2021: 291p) with EPS of 30.8p and currency movements partially offset by net negative reserve movements due to higher interest rates, primarily in the cash flow hedging reserve |
Capital distributions
· | Barclays intends to pay a 2022 full year dividend of 5.0p per share, taking the total dividend for 2022 to 7.25p per share (2021: 6.0p). Barclays also intends to initiate a share buyback of up to £0.5bn, bringing the total share buybacks announced in relation to 2022 to £1.0bn and total capital return equivalent to c.13.4p per share |
· | Barclays is committed to maintaining an appropriate balance between delivering attractive total cash returns to shareholders, investment in the business and maintaining a strong capital position. Barclays pays a progressive ordinary dividend, taking into account these objectives and the earnings outlook of the Group. The Board will also continue to supplement the ordinary dividends as appropriate, including with share buybacks |
· | Dividends will continue to be paid semi-annually |
Group capital and leverage1
· | The reported CET1 ratio decreased by c.120bps to 13.9% (December 2021: 15.1%) as RWAs increased by £22.4bn to £336.5bn and CET1 capital decreased by £0.4bn to £46.9bn | |
- | | c.150bps increase from 2022 attributable profit |
- | | c.80bps returned to shareholders including the 2.25p half year dividend paid in September 2022, £1.5bn of share buybacks announced with FY21 and H122 results and a FY22 dividend accrual |
- | | c.80bps reduction due to the impact of regulatory change on 1 January 2022 as CET1 capital decreased £1.7bn and RWAs increased £6.6bn |
- | | c.70bps reduction from decreases in the fair value of the bond portfolio through other comprehensive income and other capital deductions |
- | | c.40bps reduction due to pension contributions, including the accelerated cash settlement to the UK Retirement Fund (UKRF) of earlier deficit reduction contributions and deficit reduction payments made in 2022 |
- | | A £14.1bn increase in RWAs as a result of foreign exchange movements was broadly offset by a £2bn increase in the currency translation reserve |
· | The UK leverage ratio increased to 5.3% (December 2021: 5.2%) primarily due to a decrease in the leverage exposure of £7.9bn to £1,130.0bn and an increase in Tier 1 Capital of £0.6bn to £60.1bn |
1 | 2021 financial and capital metrics have been restated to reflect the impact of the Over-issuance of Securities. See Basis of preparation on page 55 and Restatement of financial statements (Note 1) on page 69 for more information. |
Group funding and liquidity
· | The liquidity pool was £318bn (December 2021: £291bn) and the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) remained significantly above the 100% regulatory requirement at 165% (December 2021: 168%), equivalent to a surplus of £117bn (December 2021: £116bn). The increase in the liquidity pool over the year was driven by continued deposit growth and an increase in wholesale funding, partly offset by an increase in business funding consumption. An increase in net stress outflows and trapped liquidity within Barclays' subsidiaries led to a modest reduction in the LCR ratio. The Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) (average of last four quarter ends) was 137%, which represents a £155bn surplus above the 100% regulatory requirement |
· | Wholesale funding outstanding, excluding repurchase agreements, was £184.0bn (December 2021: £167.5bn). The Group issued £15.3bn equivalent of minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) instruments from Barclays PLC (BPLC) (the Parent company) in 2022. The Group has a strong MREL position with a ratio of 33.5% of RWAs, which is in excess of the 28.9% regulatory requirement excluding a confidential, institution specific Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) buffer |
Other matters
· | Over-issuance of Securities: Barclays recognised a net attributable loss of £0.6bn in 2022 (£nil in Q422, £0.7bn total loss including 2021). This included a monetary penalty of $200m (£165m1) following the resolution of the SEC's investigation of BPLC and BBPLC relating to the Over-issuance of Securities As previously disclosed, Barclays has a contingent liability in relation to current and potential private civil claims and other potential enforcement actions relating to the Over-issuance of Securities. For further details see Restatement of financial statements (Note 1a) in the BPLC 2022 Annual Report on page 428. |
· | SEC and Commodity and Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) devices investigation: in Q322, the SEC and CFTC announced the final settlement terms relating to their investigations of compliance with record-keeping obligations in connection with business-related communications over unapproved electronic messaging platforms. Under these settlements, BBPLC and Barclays Capital Inc. paid a combined $125m (£103m1) civil monetary penalty to the SEC and a $75m (£62m1) civil monetary penalty to the CFTC |
· | Legacy Loan Portfolio: a customer remediation provision of £282m was recognised during 2022, relating to a legacy timeshare loan portfolio brokered by Azure Services Limited and other legacy loan portfolios |
· | Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) proceedings: a provision of £50m was recognised in Q322 in relation to the FCA investigation into disclosure-related matters arising out of BPLC's June and November 2008 capital raisings |
· | Gap portfolio acquisition: in Q222, Barclays completed the acquisition of a US credit card portfolio of $3.3bn (£2.7bn2) of receivables, in partnership with Gap Inc. |
· | Kensington Mortgage Company (KMC) acquisition: in Q222, BPLC announced that Barclays Bank UK PLC had agreed to acquire UK specialist mortgage lender KMC and a portfolio of UK mortgages. Regulatory approval has been obtained and the transaction is now expected to complete in Q123 |
· | Absa Group Limited (Absa) sale: during 2022 Barclays fully disposed of its shareholding in Absa, raising aggregate gross sale proceeds of ZAR 21.0bn (c.£1.1bn3) |
· | UK Corporation Tax: an increase in the UK Corporation Tax rate from 19% to 25% was enacted in 2021 and a reduction in the UK banking surcharge from 8% to 3% was enacted in 2022, both to be effective from 1 April 2023. The future statutory tax rate applied to UK banking profits will therefore be 28% from 1 April 2023 |
Group targets
Barclays continues to target the following over the medium-term: | |
· | Returns: RoTE of greater than 10% |
· | Cost efficiency: cost: income ratio below 60% |
· | Capital adequacy: CET1 ratio in the range of 13-14% |

Barclays UK delivered a RoTE of 18.7% (2021: 17.6%) as the transformation into a next generation, digitised consumer bank drove strong returns and cost efficiencies, which combined with rising interest rates contributed to a cost: income ratio of 60% (2021: 68%). Barclays UK continues to support customers through affordability pressures.
2022 compared to 2021
Income statement
· | Profit before tax increased to £2,646m (2021: £2,471m), with benefits from the rising rate environment in the UK more than offsetting the non-recurrence of a prior year credit impairment release | |
· | Total income increased 11% to £7,259m. Net interest income increased 13% to £5,893m with a NIM of 2.86% (2021: 2.52%) primarily driven by the rising interest rate environment in the UK. Net fee, commission and other income increased 2% to £1,366m | |
| - | Personal Banking income increased 17% to £4,540m, driven by rising interest rates, partially offset by mortgage margin compression |
| - | Barclaycard Consumer UK income decreased 13% to £1,093m as higher customer spend volumes were more than offset by lower interest earning lending (IEL) balances following repayments and ongoing prudent risk management |
| - | Business Banking income increased 16% to £1,626m driven by rising interest rates alongside improved transaction based revenues, partially offset by lower government scheme lending income as repayments continue |
· | Total operating expenses decreased 2% to £4,327m driven by efficiency savings more than offsetting the impact of inflation | |
· | Credit impairment charges were £286m (2021: £365m net release). The charges reflect an updated macroeconomic scenario together with a partial return to more normalised levels of customer behaviour. This is partially offset from the release of COVID-19 related adjustments as performance stabilises at or below pre-pandemic levels. As at 31 December 2022, UK cards 30 and 90 day arrears remain at 0.9% (Q421: 1.0%) and 0.2% (Q421: 0.2%) respectively1. The UK cards business is supported by a total coverage ratio of 7.6% (December 2021: 12.8%). The UK cards coverage reflects revised recovery expectations under the ongoing debt sale program and continued resilience in the underlying book. PMAs are in place for the anticipated stress arising from the cost-of-living crisis |
Balance sheet
· | Loans and advances to customers at amortised cost decreased 2% to £205.1bn as £4.1bn of mortgage growth was more than offset by a £8.5bn decrease in Business Banking balances due to the repayment of government scheme lending and the yield curve impact from rising interest rates on the Education, Social Housing and Local Authority portfolio carrying value |
· | Customer deposits at amortised cost remained broadly stable at £258.0bn (December 2021: £260.6bn), maintaining a strong loan: deposit ratio of 87% (December 2021: 85%) |
· | RWAs remained broadly stable at £73.1bn (December 2021: £72.3bn) |
1 | As at 31 December 2019, UK cards 30 and 90 day arrears were 1.7% and 0.8% respectively. |

Barclays International delivered a RoTE of 10.2% (2021: 14.4%) reflecting the benefits of income diversification and continued investment in sustainable growth, partially offset by the net impact of the Over-issuance of Securities in the CIB. CC&P performance reflected continued income momentum, investment for growth and a provision for customer remediation costs relating to legacy loan portfolios.
2022 compared to 2021
Income statement1
· | Profit before tax decreased 23% to £4,965m with a RoTE of 10.2% (2021: 14.4%), reflecting a RoTE of 10.2% (2021: 14.3%) in CIB and 10.0% (2021: 15.0%) in CC&P | ||
| - | Excluding the impact of the Over-issuance of Securities, CIB RoTE was 12.0% | |
· | Barclays International has a diverse income profile across businesses and geographies including a significant presence in the US. The 10% appreciation of average USD against GBP positively impacted income and profits and adversely impacted credit impairment charges, total operating expenses and RWAs | ||
· | Total income increased to £17,867m (2021: £15,665m) | ||
| - | CIB income increased 8% to £13,368m | |
| | - | Global Markets income increased 38% to £8,844m representing the best full year for both Global Markets and FICC on a comparable basis2. FICC income increased 65% to £5,695m, mainly in macro, reflecting higher levels of activity as we supported our clients through a period of market volatility. Equities income of £3,149m (2021: £2,967m) included £292m of income related to hedging arrangements to manage the risks of the rescission offer in relation to the Over-issuance of Securities |
| | - | Investment Banking fees decreased 39% to £2,215m due to the reduced fee pool, particularly in Equity and Debt capital markets3 |
| | - | Within Corporate, Transaction banking income increased 52% to £2,540m driven by improved margins and growth in deposits, and higher fee income. Corporate lending income reflected fair value losses on leverage finance lending of c.£335m net of mark to market gains on related hedges, of which c.£85m was recognised in Q422, and higher costs of hedging and credit protection |
| - | CC&P income increased 35% to £4,499m | |
| | - | International Cards and Consumer Bank income increased 39% to £2,913m reflecting higher cards balances, including the Gap portfolio acquisition, partially offset by higher customer acquisition costs |
| | - | Private Bank income increased 30% to £1,014m, reflecting client balance growth and improved margins partially offset by the non-recurrence of a property sale gain in the prior year |
| | - | Payments income increased 25% to £572m driven by turnover growth from the easing of lockdown restrictions |
· | Total operating expenses increased 26% to £11,997m | ||
| - | CIB total operating expenses increased 25% to £8,945m. Operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct charges increased 12% to £7,756m driven by continued investment in talent and technology, and the impact of inflation. Litigation and conduct charges were £1,189m (2021: £237m) including £966m from the Over-issuance of Securities and £165m relating to the Devices Settlements4 | |
| - | CC&P total operating expenses increased 29% to £3,052m. Operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct charges increased 21% to £2,738m, including higher investment spend reflecting an increase in marketing and partnership costs. Litigation and conduct charges were £314m (2021: £108m) mainly driven by customer remediation costs relating to legacy loan portfolios | |
· | Credit impairment charges were £933m (2021: £288m net release) driven by a deteriorating macroeconomic forecast | ||
| - | CIB credit impairment charges of £119m (2021: £473m net release) were driven by a net increase in modelled impairment and single name charges partially offset by the benefit of credit protection | |
| - | CC&P credit impairment charges increased to £814m (2021: £185m), driven by higher balances in US cards, including the day one impact of acquiring the Gap portfolio, macroeconomic deterioration and a gradual increase in delinquencies, partially offset by the utilisation of economic uncertainty PMAs and the release of COVID-19 related adjustments informed by refreshed macroeconomic scenarios. As at 31 December 2022, US cards 30 and 90 day arrears remain below pre-pandemic levels at 2.2% (Q421: 1.6%) and 1.2% (Q421: 0.8%) respectively5. The US cards business is supported by a total coverage ratio of 8.1% (December 2021: 10.6%) |

Balance sheet
· | Loans and advances at amortised cost increased £35.8bn to £169.6bn due to increased lending to customers across CIB and CC&P, inclusive of the Gap portfolio acquisition and appreciation of USD against GBP, and increased investment in debt securities |
· | Trading portfolio assets decreased £13.1bn to £133.8bn due to a reduction in equity securities as clients repositioned their demand, partially offset by increased trading activity in debt securities |
· | Derivative assets and liabilities increased £40.2bn and £32.5bn respectively to £301.7bn and £288.9bn driven by market volatility and increased activity |
· | Financial assets at fair value through the income statement increased £22.3bn to £210.5bn driven by increased reverse repurchase activity |
· | Deposits at amortised cost increased £28.8bn to £287.6bn primarily due to growth in Corporate deposits and an increase in short-term money market deposits |
· | RWAs increased to £254.8bn (December 2021: £230.9bn) mainly resulting from the impact of the appreciation of USD against GBP, regulatory changes and higher CC&P balances including the Gap portfolio |

2022 compared to 2021
Income statement
· | Loss before tax was £599m (2021: £715m) |
· | Total income was an expense of £170m (2021: £261m) primarily reflecting treasury items, funding costs on legacy capital instruments and mark-to-market losses on legacy investments, partially offset by hedge accounting gains. Additionally, there was a £74m loss on sale arising from disposals of Barclays' equity stake in Absa, and a £72m interest expense that became payable to a US tax authority upon the resolution of historical tax issues. This was partially offset by a gain of £86m from the sale and leaseback of UK data centres and the receipt of £30m of dividends from Absa prior to disposal |
· | Total operating expenses reduced to £406m (2021: £674m) reflecting the non-recurrence of the £266m structural cost action charge taken as part of the real estate review in June 2021 |
· | Other net income was an expense of £22m (2021: £220m income) driven by a fair value loss on investments held by the Business Growth Fund in which Barclays has an associate interest |
Balance sheet
· | RWAs reduced to £8.6bn (December 2021: £11.0bn) reflecting the disposals of Barclays' equity stake in Absa in April 2022 and September 2022 |

Remuneration
Deferred bonuses are payable only once an employee meets certain conditions, including a specified period of future service. This creates a timing difference between the communication of the bonus pool and the charges that are recognised in the income statement which are reconciled in the table below to show the charge for performance costs. Refer to the Remuneration Report on pages 197 to 245 of the Barclays PLC Annual Report 2022 for further detail on remuneration. The table below includes the other elements of compensation and staff costs.

Risk Management
Risk management and principal risks
The roles and responsibilities of the business groups, Risk and Compliance in the management of risk in the Group are defined in the Enterprise Risk Management Framework. The purpose of the framework is to identify the principal risks of the Group, the process by which the Group sets its appetite for these risks in its business activities, and the consequent limits which it places on related risk taking.
The framework identifies nine principal risks: credit risk, market risk, treasury and capital risk, climate risk, operational risk, model risk, conduct risk, reputation risk and legal risk. Further detail on the Group's principal risks and previously identified material existing and emerging risks and how such risks are managed is available in the Barclays PLC Annual Report 2022, or online at home.barclays/annualreport.
The following section gives an overview of credit risk, market risk, and treasury and capital risk for the period.

Loans and advances at amortised cost by stage
The table below presents a stage allocation and business segment analysis of loans and advances at amortised cost by gross exposure, impairment allowance, impairment charge and coverage ratio as at 31 December 2022. Also included are stage allocation of off-balance sheet loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts by gross exposure, impairment allowance and coverage as at 31 December 2022.
Impairment allowance under IFRS 9 considers both the drawn and the undrawn counterparty exposure. For retail portfolios, the total impairment allowance is allocated to gross loans and advances to the extent allowance does not exceed the drawn exposure and any excess is reported on the liabilities side of the balance sheet as a provision. For wholesale portfolios, impairment allowance on undrawn exposure is reported on the liability side of the balance sheet as a provision.

Loans and advances at amortised cost by selected sectors
The table below presents a breakdown of drawn exposure and impairment allowance for loans and advances at amortised cost with stage allocation for selected industry sectors within the wholesale loans portfolio. As the nature of macroeconomic uncertainty has evolved from the COVID-19 pandemic towards high inflation, supply chain constraints and consumer demand headwinds, so has the selected population under management focus. The credit risk industry concentration disclosure in the analysis of the concentration of credit risk section represents all the industry categories and the below only covers a subset of that table.
The gross loans and advances to selected sectors has decreased during the year. The increased provision is informed by the current macroeconomic outlook and underlying portfolio performance. The wholesale portfolio also benefits from a hedge protection programme that enables effective risk management against credit losses. An additional £115m (December 2021: £123m) impairment allowance has been applied to the undrawn exposures not included in the table below.

Exposure to UK Commercial Real Estate (CRE) of £9.7bn (2021: £10bn1) remained stable and was predominantly in Stage 1 at 81% (2021: 78%). The loan portfolio was well collateralised, hence a low coverage of 1.1% (ECL: £0.1bn). Exposure at Stage 3 was 2% (2021: 3%) with a coverage ratio of 12% (2021: 18%).
However, UK CRE has been included within selected sector scoping as the broader real estate sector remains under pressure due to pricing and affordability concerns, as well as construction input costs and supply chain issues adding to the uncertainty, in particular across non-investment grade exposures.
The coverage ratio for selected sectors has increased from 1.6% as at 31 December 2021 to 2.0% as at 31 December 2022. Non-default coverage ratio has increased from 0.9% as at 31 December 2021 to 1.2% as at 31 December 2022.
1 | From 2022, Barclays has enhanced the process of identifying UK CRE exposures. |
Movement in gross exposures and impairment allowance including provisions for loan commitments and financial guarantees
The following tables present a reconciliation of the opening to the closing balance of the exposure and impairment allowance. An explanation of the methodology used to determine credit impairment provisions is included in the Barclays PLC Annual Report 2022. Transfers between stages in the table have been reflected as if they had taken place at the beginning of the year. The movements are measured over a 12-month period.

Management adjustments to models for impairment
Management adjustments to impairment models are applied in order to factor in certain conditions or changes in policy that are not fully incorporated into the impairment models, or to reflect additional facts and circumstances at the period end. Management adjustments are reviewed and incorporated into future model development where applicable.
Management adjustments are captured through "Economic uncertainty" and "Other" adjustments presented by product below:

Economic uncertainty adjustments
Models have been developed with data from non-inflationary periods establishing a relationship between input variables and customer delinquency based on past behaviour. Additionally, models are trying to interpret significant rates of change in macroeconomic variables and applying these to stable probability of default (PD) levels. As such there is a risk that the modelled output fails to capture the appropriate response to changes in macroeconomic variables and rising costs with modelled impairment provisions impacted by uncertainty.
This uncertainty continues to be captured in two ways. Firstly, customer uncertainty: the identification of customers and clients who may be more vulnerable to economic instability; and secondly, model uncertainty: to capture the impact from model limitations and sensitivities to specific macroeconomic parameters which are applied at a portfolio level.
In 2022, previously established economic uncertainty adjustments have been partially released, informed by some normalisation of customer behaviour, refreshed scenarios and a rebuild of certain models to better capture the macroeconomic outlook.
The balance as at 31 December 2022 is £317m (December 2021: £1,692m) and includes: | |
Customer and client uncertainty provisions of £423m (December 2021: £1,508m) includes: | |
· | Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending includes an adjustment of £118m (December 2021: £1,203m) which has been applied to customers and clients considered most vulnerable to affordability pressures. This adjustment is predominantly held in Stage 2 in line with customer risk profiles.
The reduction is informed by the release of COVID-19 related adjustments as credit performance stabilises at or below pre-pandemic levels which is reflected in the models, and a rebuild of certain models to better capture the macroeconomic outlook. |
· | Wholesale loans: £301m (FY21: £305m) includes an adjustment of £205m for exposures considered most at risk from inflationary concerns, supply chain constraints and consumer demand headwinds. The adjustment involves applying Stage 2 coverage rates to Stage 1 exposures assessed as most vulnerable. Sectors in scope are presented in the selected sectors disclosure on page 32. The remaining adjustment includes £92m to reflect possible cross default risk on Barclays' lending in respect of clients who have taken bounce back loans. |
Model uncertainty provisions of £(106)m (December 2021: £184m) includes: | |
· | Wholesale loans: £(106)m (December 2021: £98m) includes an adjustment to correct for the deterioration in wholesale PDs impacted by model over-sensitivity to certain macroeconomic variables. In 2021, this adjustment was held at £98m driven by an unintuitive model output from certain Q421 macroeconomic variables. |
· | Management adjustments of £72m within home loans in 2021 primarily comprised of a now retired adjustment, reflecting the non-linearity of the UK mortgages portfolio in order to generate a more appropriate level of predicted results. |
Other adjustments
Other adjustments are operational in nature and are expected to remain in place until they can be reflected in the underlying models. These adjustments result from data limitations and model performance related issues identified through model monitoring and other established governance processes.
Other adjustments of £208m (December 2021: £(206)m) includes: | |
· | Home loans: £85m (December 2021: £31m) primarily includes adjustments for model performance informed by model monitoring and an adjustment for the adoption of the new definition of default under the Capital Requirements Regulation. |
· | Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending: £202m (December 2021: £145m) primarily includes an adjustment for adoption of the new definition of default under the Capital Requirements Regulation and an adjustment to the qualitative measures used in identification of high-risk account management (HRAM) accounts for US cards, partially offset by a recalibration of Loss Given Default (LGD) to reflect revised recovery expectations.
The £145m adjustments held in December 2021 primarily included adjustments for model performance informed by model monitoring, partially offset by an adjustment for reclassification of loans and advances from Stage 2 to Stage 1 in credit cards. The reclassification followed a review of back-testing results which indicated that accuracy of origination probability of default characteristics require management adjustment. These adjustments are no longer required due to model enhancements made during the year. |
· | Wholesale loans: £(79)m (December 2021: £(382)m): includes adjustments for model performance informed by model monitoring.
Management adjustments of £(382)m within wholesale loans in 2021 consisted of an adjustment of £(380)m applied on bounce back loans to reverse out the modelled charge which did not consider the government guarantee. This adjustment is no longer needed due to model enhancements made during the year. |
Measurement uncertainty
Scenarios used to calculate the Group's ECL charge were refreshed in Q422 with the Baseline scenario reflecting the latest consensus macroeconomic forecasts available at the time of the scenario refresh. In the Baseline scenario, further deterioration in major economies, as inflation pressures continue to squeeze household income, along with significant monetary policy tightening contribute to lower growth prospects. UK GDP is expected to continue falling into 2023 and the US economy dips into mild recession in 2023. Slight increases in the UK and US unemployment rates are expected, peaking at 4.9% in Q423 and 4.7% in Q124 respectively. Central banks continue raising interest rates, peaking during 2023, and consumer price inflation eases over 2023.
In the Downside 2 scenario, inflation continues to accelerate amid increasing gas and oil prices and persistent supply-chain pressures as a result of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Central banks are forced to raise interest rates sharply with the UK bank rate reaching 8% and the US federal funds rate peaking at 7%. Unemployment peaks at 8.5% in the UK and 8.6% in the US. Given already stretched valuations, the sharp increase in borrowing costs sees house prices decrease significantly. In the Upside 2 scenario, lower energy prices add downward pressure on prices globally, while recovering labour force participation limits wage growth. As a result of easing inflation, central banks lower interest rates to support the economic recovery.
The methodology for estimating scenario probability weights involves simulating a range of future paths for UK and US GDP using historical data with the five scenarios mapped against the distribution of these future paths. The median is centred around the Baseline with scenarios further from the Baseline attracting a lower weighting before the five weights are normalised to total 100%. The increase in the Downside weightings and the decrease in the Upside weightings reflected the deteriorating economic outlook which moved the Baseline UK/US GDP paths closer to the Downside scenarios. For further details see page 41.
The economic uncertainty adjustments of £0.3bn (2021: £1.7bn) have been applied as overlays to the modelled ECL output. These adjustments consist of a customer and client uncertainty provision of £0.4bn (2021: £1.5bn) which has been applied to customers and clients considered most vulnerable to affordability pressures, and a model uncertainty adjustment of £(0.1)bn (2021: £0.2bn). For further details see page 36.

1 | Model exposures are allocated to a stage based on an individual scenario rather than a probability-weighted approach as required for Barclays reported impairment allowances. As a result, it is not possible to back solve the final reported weighted ECL from individual scenarios given balances may be assigned to a different stage dependent on the scenario. |
2 | For Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending, the model exposure movement between stages 1 and 2 across scenarios differs due to additional impacts from the undrawn exposure. |
3 | For Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending, the dispersion of results around Baseline has narrowed following model enhancements made during the year. |
4 | Model exposures allocated to Stage 3 does not change in any of the scenarios as the transition criteria relies only on an observable evidence of default as at 31 December 2022 and not on macroeconomic scenario. |
5 | Material wholesale loan defaults are individually assessed across different recovery strategies. As a result, ECL of £434m is reported as an individually assessed impairment in the reconciliation table. |
The use of five scenarios with associated weightings results in a total weighted ECL uplift from the Baseline ECL of 1.7%.
Home loans: Total weighted ECL of £372m represents a 6.3% increase over the Baseline ECL (£350m) with coverage ratios remaining steady across the Upside scenarios, Baseline and Downside 1 scenario. Under the Downside 2 scenario, total ECL increases to £586m driven by a significant fall in UK HPI to (18.3)% in 2023 reflecting the non-linearity of the UK portfolio.
Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending: Total weighted ECL of £3,411m is aligned to the Baseline ECL (£3,413m). The impact of the deteriorated Baseline scenario relative to the severity of the downside scenarios is greater than the impact of the higher weights applied to the Downside scenarios when compared to 2021. This results in a convergence between Baseline and Weighted ECL in 2022. Total ECL increases to £3,943m under the Downside 2 scenario, driven by the significant increase in UK unemployment rate to 6.0% and US unemployment rate to 6.0% in 2023.
Wholesale loans: Total weighted ECL of £977m represents an 6.3% increase over the Baseline ECL (£919m). Total ECL increases to £1,783m under Downside 2 scenario, driven by a significant decrease in UK GDP to (3.4)% and US GDP to (2.7)% in 2023.

1 | Portfolio marked to market based on the most updated valuation including recovery book balances. Updated valuations reflect the application of the latest HPI available as at 31 December 2022. |
New lending in 2022 was £30.3bn, a reduction of 11% on 2021. This was mainly driven by economic conditions that resulted in general mortgage market suppression, including higher mortgage payments as rates continued to rise and increased cost of living factors in line with inflation.
Head Office: Italian home loans and advances at amortised cost reduced to £4.5bn (2021: £4.7bn) and continue to run-off since new bookings ceased in 2016. The portfolio is secured on residential property with an average balance weighted mark to market LTV of 58.8% (2021: 60.4%). 90 day arrears decreased to 1.2% (2021: 1.3%), gross charge-off rates increased to 0.6% (2021: 0.3%) due to a combination of affordability stress related to rising inflation and interest rates, and the particularly low rate observed in 2021 due to the COVID portfolio improvements.
Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending
The principal portfolios listed below accounted for 85% (December 2021: 82%) of the Group's total credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending.

UK personal loans: 30 and 90 day arrears rates have reduced marginally to 1.4% (Q421: 1.5%) and 0.6% (Q421: 0.7%) respectively, whilst total exposure was stable at £4.0bn. Both the annualised gross and net write off rates increased by 0.6% due to increased regular debt sales.
Barclays Partner Finance: 30 day arrears rate increased slightly to 0.5% (Q421: 0.4%) and 90 day arrears rate remained stable at 0.2% (Q421: 0.2%), reflecting marginally higher entry rates with stable flows through the delinquency cycles. Total exposure grew by £0.1bn to £2.6bn (December 2021: £2.5bn) as a result of increased sales. Both the annualised gross and net write off rates decreased by 0.7% as a result of the reducing delinquent stock and subsequent flow into recoveries.
US cards: Balances increased due to the acquisition of the Gap portfolio in June 2022, movement in the USD/GBP exchange rate and core portfolio growth. 30 and 90 day arrears rates increased to 2.2% (Q421: 1.6%) and 1.2% (Q421: 0.8%) due to the partial normalisation of customer behaviour and the acquisition of the Gap portfolio, though rates remain below pre-pandemic levels. Write-off rates decreased reflecting portfolio growth and the impact of lower charge offs in 2021 due to the benefit of government support schemes.
Germany consumer lending: 30 day arrears rate increased to 1.7% (Q421: 1.5%) due to increased macroeconomic uncertainty in Europe, though the rate was consistent with pre-pandemic levels.
Market Risk
Analysis of management value at risk (VaR)
The table below shows the total management VaR on a diversified basis by asset class. Total management VaR includes all trading positions in Barclays Bank Group and it is calculated with a one-day holding period. VaR limits are applied to total management VaR and by asset class. Additionally, the market risk management function applies VaR sub-limits to material businesses and trading desks.

1 | Diversification effects recognise that forecast losses from different assets or businesses are unlikely to occur concurrently, hence the expected aggregate loss is lower than the sum of the expected losses from each area. Historical correlations between losses are taken into account in making these assessments. The high and low VaR figures reported for each category did not necessarily occur on the same day as the high and low VaR reported as a whole. Consequently, a diversification effect balance for the high and low VaR figures would not be meaningful and is therefore omitted from the above table. |
Average management VaR increased 89% to £36m (2021: £19m) driven by higher market volatility. The Russia-Ukraine conflict and elevated inflation increased volatility across all asset classes as central banks increased base rates, equity markets declined, and credit spreads widened during this period. The Global Markets business maintained a generally short and defensive risk profile (i.e. positioned to gain as the market sells off) for most of 2022. VaR increased in Q4 2022 from an increase in funded, fair-value leverage loan exposure in Investment Banking. Risk taking remained within agreed risk appetite limits at all times in 2022.
Treasury and Capital Risk
The Group has established a comprehensive set of policies, standards and controls for managing its liquidity risk; together these set out the requirements for Barclays' liquidity risk framework. The liquidity risk framework meets the PRA standards and enables Barclays to maintain liquidity resources that are sufficient in amount and quality, and a funding profile that is appropriate to meet the Group's Liquidity Risk Appetite. The liquidity risk framework is delivered via a combination of policy formation, review and challenge, governance, analysis, stress testing, limit setting and monitoring.
Liquidity risk stress testing
The internal liquidity stress test measures the potential contractual and contingent stress outflows under a range of scenarios, which are then used to determine the size of the liquidity pool that is immediately available to meet anticipated outflows if a stress occurs. The short-term scenarios include a 30 day Barclays-specific stress event, a 90 day market-wide stress event and a 30 day combined scenario consisting of both a Barclays specific and market-wide stress event. The Group also runs a long-term liquidity stress test, which measures the anticipated outflows over a 12 month market-wide scenario
The LCR requirement takes into account the relative stability of different sources of funding and potential incremental funding requirements in a stress. The LCR is designed to promote short-term resilience of a bank's liquidity risk profile by holding sufficient high quality liquid assets to survive an acute stress scenario lasting for 30 days.
As at 31 December 2022, the Group held eligible liquid assets in excess of 100% of net stress outflows to its internal and external regulatory requirements.

Net Stable Funding Ratio
The external NSFR metric requires banks to maintain a stable funding profile taking into account both on and certain off balance sheet exposures over a medium to long term period. The ratio is defined as the Available Stable Funding (capital and certain liabilities which are treated as stable sources of funding) relative to the Required Stable Funding (assets on balance sheet and certain off balance sheet exposures). The NSFR (average of last four quarter ends) as at 31 December 2022 was 137%, which was a surplus above requirements of £155bn.

As part of the liquidity risk appetite, Barclays establishes minimum LCR, NSFR and internal liquidity stress test limits. The Group plans to maintain its surplus to the internal and regulatory requirements at an efficient level. Risks to market funding conditions, the Group's liquidity position and funding profile are assessed continuously, and actions are taken to manage the size of the liquidity pool and the funding profile as appropriate.

1 | The LCR eligible HQLA is adjusted for operational restrictions upon consolidation under Article 8 of the Liquidity Coverage Ratio section of the PRA rulebook (CRR) such as trapped liquidity within Barclays subsidiaries. It also reflects differences in eligibility of assets between the LCR and Barclays' Liquidity Pool. |
2 | Includes cash held at central banks and surplus cash at central banks related to payment schemes. Over 99% (December 2021: over 99%) was placed with the Bank of England, US Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of Japan and Swiss National Bank. |

The Group liquidity pool increased to £318bn as at December 2022 (December 2021: £291bn) driven by continued deposit growth and an increase in wholesale funding, which were partly offset by an increase in business funding consumption and trapped liquidity within Barclays' subsidiaries. During 2022, the month-end liquidity pool ranged from £309bn to £359bn (2021: £290bn to £337bn), and the month-end average balance was £331bn (2021: £303bn). The liquidity pool is held unencumbered and is not used to support payment or clearing requirements. Such requirements are treated as part of our regular business funding. The liquidity pool is intended to offset stress outflows, and comprises the above cash and unencumbered assets.
As at 31 December 2022, 60% (December 2021: 58%) of the liquidity pool was located in Barclays Bank PLC, 25% (December 2021: 30%) in Barclays Bank UK PLC and 9% (December 2021: 7%) in Barclays Bank Ireland PLC. The residual portion of the liquidity pool is held outside of these entities, predominantly in US subsidiaries, to meet entity-specific stress outflows and local regulatory requirements. To the extent the use of this residual portion of the liquidity pool is restricted due to local regulatory requirements or operational restrictions, it is assumed to be unavailable to the rest of the Group in calculating the LCR.
The composition of the pool is subject to limits and controls set by the respective entity Boards and independent liquidity risk, credit risk and market risk functions. In addition, the investment of the liquidity pool is monitored for concentration by issuer, currency and asset type. Given returns generated by these highly liquid assets, the risk and reward profile is continuously managed.

Funding structure and funding relationships
The basis for liquidity risk management is a funding structure that reduces the probability of a liquidity stress leading to an inability to meet funding obligations as they fall due. The Group's overall funding strategy is to develop a diversified funding base (geographically, by type and by counterparty) and maintain access to a variety of alternative funding sources, to provide protection against unexpected fluctuations, while minimising the cost of funding.
Within this, the Group aims to align the sources and uses of funding. As such, retail and corporate loans and advances are largely funded by deposits in the relevant entities, with the surplus primarily funding the liquidity pool. The majority of reverse repurchase agreements are matched by repurchase agreements. Derivative liabilities and assets are largely matched. A substantial proportion of balance sheet derivative positions qualify for counterparty netting and the remaining portions are largely offset when netted against cash collateral received and paid. Wholesale debt and equity is used to fund residual assets.
These funding relationships as at 31 December 2022 are summarised below:

Composition of wholesale funding
Wholesale funding outstanding (excluding repurchase agreements) was £184.0bn (December 2021: £167.5bn). In 2022, the Group issued £15.3bn of MREL eligible instruments from Barclays PLC (the Parent company) in a range of tenors and currencies.
Our operating companies also access wholesale funding markets to maintain their stable and diversified funding bases. Barclays Bank PLC continued to issue in the shorter-term and medium-term notes markets. In addition, Barclays Bank UK PLC continued to issue in the shorter-term markets and maintains active secured funding programmes.
Wholesale funding of £72.5bn (December 2021: £66.7bn1) matures in less than one year, representing 39% (December 2021: 40%1) of total wholesale funding outstanding. This includes £15.0bn (December 2021: £24.9bn1) related to term funding2.

Regulatory minimum requirements
Capital
The Group's Overall Capital Requirement for CET1 is 11.3% comprising a 4.5% Pillar 1 minimum, a 2.5% Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB), a 1.5% Global Systemically Important Institution (G-SII) buffer, a 2.4% Pillar 2A requirement and a 0.4% Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB).
The Group's CCyB is based on the buffer rate applicable for each jurisdiction in which the Group has exposures. On 13 December 2021, the Financial Policy Committee (FPC) announced the re-introduction of a CCyB rate of 1% for UK exposures with effect from 13 December 2022. The buffer rates set by other national authorities for non-UK exposures are not currently material. Overall, this results in a 0.4% CCyB for the Group. On 5 July 2022, the FPC announced that the UK CCyB rate will be increased from 1% to 2% with effect from 5 July 2023.
The Group's updated Pillar 2A requirement as per the PRA's Individual Capital requirement is 4.3% of which at least 56.25% needs to be met with CET1 capital, equating to 2.4% of RWAs. The Pillar 2A requirement, based on a point in time assessment, has been set as a proportion of RWAs and is subject to at least annual review.
The Group's CET1 target ratio of 13-14% takes into account headroom above requirements which includes a confidential institution-specific PRA buffer. The Group remains above its minimum capital regulatory requirements including the PRA buffer.
Leverage
The Group is subject to a UK leverage ratio requirement of 4.0%. This comprises the 3.25% minimum requirement, a G-SII additional leverage ratio buffer (G-SII ALRB) of 0.53% and a countercyclical leverage ratio buffer (CCLB) of 0.2%. Although the leverage ratio is expressed in terms of Tier 1 (T1) capital, 75% of the minimum requirement, equating to 2.4375%, needs to be met with CET1 capital. In addition, the G-SII ALRB and CCLB must be covered solely with CET1 capital. The CET1 capital held against the 0.53% G-SII ALRB was £5.9bn and against the 0.2% CCLB was £2.3bn.
The Group is also required to disclose an average UK leverage ratio which is based on capital on the last day of each month in the quarter and an exposure measure for each day in the quarter.
MREL
The Group is required to meet the higher of: (i) two times the sum of 8% Pillar 1 and 4.3% Pillar 2A equating to 24.5% of RWAs; and (ii) 6.75% of leverage exposures. In addition, the higher of regulatory capital and leverage buffers apply. CET1 capital cannot be counted towards both MREL and the buffers, meaning that the buffers, including the above mentioned confidential institution-specific PRA buffer, will effectively be applied above MREL requirements.
Significant regulatory updates in the period
Capital and RWAs
On 1 January 2022, the PRA's implementation of Basel III standards took effect including the re-introduction of the 100% CET1 capital deduction for qualifying software intangible assets and the introduction of the Standardised Approach for Counterparty Credit Risk (SA-CCR) which replaces the Current Exposure Method for Standardised derivative exposures as a more risk sensitive approach. In addition, the PRA also implemented IRB roadmap changes which includes revisions to the criteria for definition of default, probability of default and loss given default estimation to ensure supervisory consistency and increase transparency of IRB models.
On 30 November 2022, the PRA published its consultation paper 'Implementation of the Basel 3.1 standards', which covers the remaining parts of the Basel III standards to be implemented in the UK. Changes are expected to come in to force from 1 January 2025, other than those areas subject to transitional provisions. Barclays currently expects the impact on RWAs on 1 January 2025 to be at the lower end of the prior 5-10% RWA inflation guidance. The PRA is currently consulting on the rule changes, and there will be a review of the Pillar 2A framework in 2024 which may offset some of the impact.
Leverage
From 1 January 2022, UK banks became subject to a single UK leverage ratio requirement meaning that the CRR leverage ratio no longer applies. Under the revised UK leverage ratio framework, central bank claims have been excluded from the UK leverage exposure measure where they are matched by qualifying liabilities (rather than deposits).
In the disclosures that follow, references to CRR, as amended by CRR II, mean the capital regulatory requirements, as they form part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended.
Impact of Over-issuance of Securities in the US
Basis of preparation
In March 2022, the Group became aware that Barclays Bank PLC had issued securities materially in excess of the amount it had registered with the SEC under Barclays Bank PLC's 2019 F-3. Subsequently, the Group became aware that securities had also been issued in excess of the amount it had registered with the SEC under the Predecessor Shelf. The securities issued in excess of the registered amount included structured products and exchange traded notes. As these securities were not issued in compliance with the Securities Act, a right of rescission arose for certain purchasers of the securities. A portion of the costs associated with the right of rescission was attributable to the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021, resulting in the restatement of the 2021 figures in the disclosures below.
Prior to the restatement, litigation and conduct charges in the income statement in relation to 2021 were underreported by £220m (pre-tax). This resulted in a CET1 capital decrease of £170m from £47,497m to £47,327m. Both the transitional and fully loaded CET1 ratios remained unchanged at 15.1% and 14.7% respectively. The T1 ratio moved from 19.2% to 19.1% and the total capital ratio moved from 22.3% to 22.2%.
The leverage exposure increased £1.9bn to recognise on a regulatory basis, the potential commitment relating to the rescission offer. This resulted in the UK leverage ratio moving from 5.3% to 5.2% whilst the average UK leverage ratio remained unchanged at 4.9%.
Total own funds and eligible liabilities decreased £0.2bn to £108bn, which was in excess of a restated requirement to hold £94bn of own funds and eligible liabilities.

CET1 capital decreased £0.4bn to £46.9bn (December 2021: £47.3bn).
CET1 capital decreased by £1.7bn as a result of regulatory changes that took effect from 1 January 2022 including the re-introduction of the 100% CET1 capital deduction for qualifying software intangible assets and a reduction in IFRS9 transitional relief due to the relief applied to the pre-2020 impairment charge reducing to 25% in 2022 from 50% in 2021 and the relief applied to the post-2020 impairment charge reducing to 75% in 2022 from 100% in 2021.
£5.9bn of capital generated from profit, after absorbing the £0.6bn net of tax impact of the Over-issuance of Securities, was partially offset by distributions of £3.5bn comprising: | |
· | £1.5bn of total buybacks including the £1bn buyback announced with FY21 results and the £0.5bn buyback announced with H122 results |
· | £1.1bn of ordinary share dividends paid and foreseen reflecting the £0.4bn half year 2022 dividend paid and a £0.8bn accrual towards a full year 2022 dividend |
· | £0.9bn of equity coupons paid and foreseen |
Other significant movements in the period were: | |
· | £1.3bn reduction from decreases in the fair value of the bond portfolio through other comprehensive income |
· | £2.0bn increase in the currency translation reserve driven by the appreciation of period end USD against GBP |
· | £1.1bn decrease due to the net impact of pensions primarily as a result of the accelerated cash settlement to the UKRF of earlier deficit reduction contributions as well as deficit reduction payments made in 2022 |

Overall RWAs increased £22.4bn to £336.5bn (December 2021: £314.1bn)
Credit risk RWAs increased £23.9bn: | |
· | A £15.4bn increase in book size primarily driven by an increase in lending activities across CIB, CC&P and growth in mortgages within Barclays UK |
· | A £1.2bn decrease in acquisitions and disposals primarily driven by the disposal of Barclays' equity stake in Absa, offset by Gap portfolio acquisition |
· | A £2.2bn decrease in RWAs due to book quality primarily driven by the benefit in mortgages from an increase in the HPI, partially offset by movements in risk parameters primarily within Barclays UK |
· | A £3.0bn increase in methodology and policy primarily as a result of regulatory changes relating to implementation of IRB roadmap changes, partially offset by the reversal of the software intangibles benefit |
· | A £9.0bn increase in FX primarily due to appreciation of USD against GBP |
Counterparty Credit risk RWAs increased £4.3bn: | |
· | A £3.3bn decrease in book size primarily driven by derivative mark-to-market movements |
· | A £1.3bn increase in RWAs due to book quality primarily driven by movements in risk parameters within CIB |
· | A £3.0bn increase in methodology and policy as a result of regulatory changes relating to the introduction of SA-CCR |
· | A £3.3bn increase in FX primarily due to appreciation of USD against GBP |
Market risk RWAs decreased £7.9bn: | |
· | A £9.7bn decrease in book size primarily driven by a £6.7bn in Stressed Value at Risk (SVaR) model adjustment as a result of changes in portfolio composition, a £2.3bn decrease due to client and trading activities and a £0.7bn reduction in Structural FX |
· | A £1.8bn increase in FX primarily due to appreciation of USD against GBP |
Operational risk RWAs increased £2.1bn: | |
· | A £2.1bn increase in book size primarily driven by the inclusion of higher 2022 CIB income compared to 2019 |

3 | Fully loaded average UK leverage ratio was 4.7%, with £60.1bn of T1 capital and £1,280.2bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded UK leverage ratio was 5.3%, with £59.4bn of T1 capital and £1,129.3bn of leverage exposure. Fully loaded UK leverage ratios are calculated without applying the transitional arrangements of the CRR as amended by CRR II. |
The UK leverage ratio increased to 5.3% (December 2021: 5.2%) primarily due to a £7.9bn decrease in the leverage exposure and a £0.6bn increase in Tier 1 capital. The UK leverage exposure decreased to £1,130.0bn (December 2021: £1,137.9bn) largely due to the following movements:
· | £53.1bn decrease in PFE on derivatives largely driven by increased netting eligibility due to the introduction of SA-CCR |
· | £42.0bn decrease in cash at central banks net of the qualifying central bank claims exemption primarily due to the matching of allowable liabilities rather than deposits introduced under the UK leverage ratio framework and a decrease in Swiss Franc cash assets |
· | £33.0bn increase in loans and advances and other assets (excluding cash and settlement balances which are subject to regulatory exemptions) primarily due to increased lending |
· | £29.5bn increase in derivative financial instruments post additional regulatory netting and adjustments for cash collateral primarily driven by market volatility, increased activity in CIB and the application of a 1.4 multiplier introduced under SA-CCR |
· | £18.4bn increase in SFTs primarily driven by increased reverse repurchase activity in CIB |
The average UK leverage ratio decreased to 4.8% (December 2021: 4.9%) due to a £51.9bn increase in average leverage exposure partially offset by a £1.1bn increase in average T1 capital. The average UK leverage exposure increased to £1,281.0bn (December 2021: £1,229.0bn) mainly driven by increased activity during the year that was partially offset by the impact of regulatory changes that came into effect from 1 January 2022 under the UK leverage ratio framework.

Financial Statement Notes
1. Basis of preparation
Restatement of financial statements
The comparatives in these condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 (the financial statements) have been restated to reflect both a provision and contingent liability disclosure in respect of the impact of an over-issuance of securities (the Over-issuance of Securities) in excess of the maximum aggregate offering price registered under Barclays Bank PLC's shelf registration statement on Form F-3, as declared effective by the SEC in August 2019 (2019 F-3) and Barclays Bank PLC's Predecessor Shelf.
Due to an SEC settlement order in 2017, at the time the 2019 F-3 was filed and the Predecessor Shelf was amended, Barclays Bank PLC had ceased to be a "well-known seasoned issuer" (or WKSI) and had become an "ineligible issuer", as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act), thus being required to register upfront a fixed amount of securities with the SEC.
In March 2022, Barclays Bank PLC became aware that it had issued securities in the US materially in excess of the amount it had registered with the SEC under the 2019 F-3. Subsequently, Barclays Bank PLC became aware that securities had also been issued in excess of the amount it had registered with the SEC under the Predecessor Shelf. The securities that were issued in this period included structured notes and exchange traded notes (ETNs). Certain offers and sales of these securities were not made in compliance with the Securities Act, giving rise to rights of rescission for certain purchasers of the securities. Under Section 12(a)(1) of the Securities Act, certain purchasers of unregistered securities have a right to recover, upon the tender of such security, the consideration paid for such security with interest, less the amount of any income received, or damages if the purchaser sold the securities at a loss (the Rescission Price). As a result, Barclays Bank PLC made a rescission offer to eligible purchasers of the relevant affected securities at the Rescission Price (the Rescission Offer).
A portion of the costs associated with the rights of rescission of certain investors was attributable to Barclays PLC's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021. Accordingly, the comparatives in these financial statements have been restated. The restatement impacts the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and the consolidated cash flow statement for the year ended 31 December 2021, as well as quarterly financial information that is presented within this document.
The table below reflects each of the consolidated financial statement line items that were affected by the restatement:

2. Tax
The tax charge for 2022 was £1,039m (restated1 2021: £1,138m), representing an effective tax rate (ETR) of 14.8% (restated1 2021: 13.9%). The ETR for 2022 includes a charge recognised for the re-measurement of the Group's UK deferred tax assets (DTAs) due to the enactment of legislation in Q122 to reduce the UK banking surcharge rate being from 8% to 3% effective from 1 April 2023. The ETR excluding the impact of this downward re-measurement of UK DTAs was 9.9%, reflecting the impact of tax benefits arising in the current year, primarily arising from tax relief related to government bonds linked to the high prevailing rate of inflation in 2022, as well as beneficial adjustments in respect of prior years. Included in the 2022 tax charge is a credit of £244m (2021: £212m) in respect of payments made on AT1 instruments that are classified as equity for accounting purposes. The 2021 ETR included a benefit recognised for the re-measurement of the Group's UK DTAs as a result of the enactment of legislation to increase the UK Corporation Tax rate to 25% effective from 1 April 2023.
The re-measurement of UK DTAs has resulted in the Group's DTAs decreasing by £318m with a tax charge in the income statement of £346m and a tax credit within other comprehensive income of £28m.
In its Autumn Statement held in November 2022, the UK Government confirmed that, as currently enacted, the banking surcharge rate will be reduced from 8% to 3% from 1 April 2023. UK deferred tax assets as at 31 December 2022 are measured at this rate, having been remeasured when the 3% rate was substantively enacted in 2022. The statutory tax rate applicable to banks' UK profits will therefore be 28% (comprising a rate of 25% for Corporation Tax and of 3% for banking surcharge)from 1 April 2023.
The OECD and G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting announced plans to introduce a global minimum tax rate of 15% and the OECD issued model rules in 2021. During 2022 further OECD guidance has been released and draft legislation to implement the global minimum tax regime has been published by the UK Government. The UK Government has stated that it intends to enact legislation in 2023 to apply for accounting periods beginning on or after 31 December 2023. The Group has reviewed the published OECD model rules and further guidance along with the draft UK legislation and has been assessing the expected impact ahead of the implementation of the new regime. The Group will review further guidance as well as new legislation expected to be released by governments implementing this new tax regime and continue to assess the potential impact.
In the USA, the Inflation Reduction Act was enacted in August 2022. The Act does not include changes to the US corporate income tax rate or to US international tax provisions included in the previously proposed Build Back Better Act but does introduce a corporate alternative minimum tax on adjusted financial statements income, effective from 1 January 2023. Further regulations and guidance are expected to be published in 2023, however the Group's preliminary view is that the alternative minimum tax is not expected to materially increase the Group's effective tax rate. The Group will review future guidance when it is published and continue to monitor other legislative developments and assess the potential impact.

5. Dividends on ordinary shares
It is Barclays' policy to declare and pay dividends on a semi-annual basis. The 2022 full year dividend of 5.0p per ordinary share will be paid on 31 March 2023 to the shareholders on the Share Registrar on 24 February 2023.

The Directors have confirmed their intention initiate a share buyback of up to £0.5bn after the balance sheet date. The share buyback is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2023. The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 do not reflect the impact of the proposed share buyback, which will be accounted for as and when shares are repurchased by the Company.
6. Fair value of financial instruments
This section should be read in conjunction with Note 17, Fair value of financial instruments of the Barclays PLC Annual Report 2022 which provides more detail about accounting policies adopted, valuation methodologies used in calculating fair value and the valuation control framework which governs oversight of valuations. There have been no changes in the accounting policies adopted or the valuation methodologies used.

9. Retirement benefits
As at 31 December 2022, the Group's IAS 19 net pension surplus across all schemes was £4.5bn (December 2021: £3.6bn). The UK Retirement Fund (UKRF), which is the Group's main scheme, had an IAS 19 net pension surplus of £4.7bn (December 2021: £3.8bn). The movement for the UKRF was driven by payment of £294m deficit reduction contributions and the unwind of senior fixed rate notes (covered below), partially offset by higher than expected inflation.
UKRF funding valuations
The latest triennial actuarial valuation of the UKRF with an effective date of 30 September 2022 has been completed. The valuation showed a funding surplus of £2bn and a funding level of 108% (2021 update: £0.6bn surplus, funding level 102%). The improvement was mainly due to £294m deficit reduction contributions, changes to views on life expectancy, and inflationary returns on assets relative to liabilities being better than expected.
As the UKRF has a funding surplus the 2023 deficit reduction contribution (£286m), agreed as part of the 2019 triennial actuarial valuation, is no longer required, and no recovery plan is needed.
During 2019 and 2020, the UKRF subscribed for non-transferable listed senior fixed rate notes for £1.25bn issued by entities consolidated within the Group under IFRS 10. As a result of these transactions, the CET1 impact of the 2019 and 2020 deficit contributions was deferred until 2023, 2024 and 2025 upon maturity of the notes. Barclays unwound these transactions in December 2022. This resulted in a c.30bps reduction to the CET1 ratio being accelerated to Q4 2022 from 2023, 2024 and 2025.

Closing balance | 3,968 | 405 | 4,373 |
Called up share capital comprises 15,871m (December 2021: 16,752m) ordinary shares of 25p each. The decrease is mainly due to the repurchase of 931m shares as part of the share buybacks conducted in 2022, partially offset by an increase due to the issuance of shares under employee share schemes.

Other equity instruments of £13,284m (December 2021: £12,259m) comprise AT1 securities issued by Barclays PLC. There were three issuances and two redemptions in the period.
The AT1 securities are perpetual securities with no fixed maturity and are structured to qualify as AT1 instruments under prevailing capital rules applicable as at the relevant issue date. AT1 securities are undated and are redeemable, at the option of Barclays PLC, in whole on (i) the initial call date, or on any fifth anniversary after the initial call date or (ii) any day falling in a named period ending on the initial reset date, or on any fifth anniversary after the initial reset date. In addition, the AT1 securities are redeemable, at the option of Barclays PLC, in whole in the event of certain changes in the tax or regulatory treatment of the securities. Any redemptions require the prior consent of the PRA.
All Barclays PLC AT1 securities will be converted into ordinary shares of Barclays PLC, at a pre-determined price, should the fully loaded CET1 ratio of the Group fall below 7%.

Own credit reserve | 467 | (960) |
Other reserves and treasury shares | 1,364 | 1,126 |
Total | (2,192) | 1,770 |
Currency translation reserve
The currency translation reserve represents the cumulative gains and losses on the retranslation of the Group's net investment in foreign operations, net of the effects of hedging.
As at 31 December 2022, there was a credit balance of £4,772m (December 2021: £2,740m credit) in the currency translation reserve. The £2,032m credit movement principally reflects the weakening of GBP against USD during the period.
Fair value through other comprehensive income reserve
The fair value through other comprehensive income reserve represents the changes in the fair value of fair value through other comprehensive income investments since initial recognition.
As at 31 December 2022, there was a debit balance of £1,560m (December 2021: £283m debit) in the reserve. The movement in the year of £1,277m is principally driven by a loss of £1,836m from the decrease in fair value of bonds(net of hedges) due to increasing bond yields, a net loss of £111m transferred to the income statement, gains of £84m transferred to retained earnings on sale of 14.90% equity stake in Absa Group Limited offset by a tax credit of £523m.
Cash flow hedging reserve
The cash flow hedging reserve represents the cumulative gains and losses on effective cash flow hedging instruments that will be recycled to the income statement when the hedged transactions affect profit or loss.
As at 31 December 2022, there was a debit balance of £7,235m (December 2021: £853m debit) in the cash flow hedging reserve. The decrease of £6,382m principally reflects a £9,052m decrease in the fair value of interest rate swaps held for hedging purposes as major interest rate forward curves increased. This is partially offset by a tax credit of £2,331m and £339m of losses transferred to the income statement.
Own credit reserve
The own credit reserve reflects the cumulative own credit gains and losses on financial liabilities at fair value. Amounts in the own credit reserve are not recycled to profit or loss in future periods.
As at 31 December 2022, there was a credit balance of £467m (December 2021: £960m debit) in the own credit reserve. The movement of £1,427m principally reflects a £2,091m gain from the widening of Barclays' funding spreads partially offset by a tax charge of £616m.
Other reserves and treasury shares
Other reserves relate to redeemed ordinary and preference shares issued by the Group. Treasury shares relate to Barclays PLC shares held principally in relation to the Group's various share schemes.
As at 31 December 2022, there was a credit balance of £1,364m (December 2021: £1,126m credit) in other reserves and treasury shares. This is driven by an increase of £233m due to the repurchase of 931m shares as part of the share buybacks conducted in 2022 and a £5m movement in the treasury shares balance held in relation to employee share schemes.
Appendix: Non-IFRS Performance Measures
The Group's management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses' performance between financial periods, and provide more detail concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by management.
However, any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well.

The Group's management believes that the non-IFRS financial measures excluding notable items, included in the table above, provide valuable information to enable users of the financial statements to assess the performance of the Group. The notable items are separately identified within the Group's results disclosures which, when excluded from Barclays' statutory financials, provide an underlying profit and loss performance of the Group and enables consistent comparison of performance from one period to another.
These non-IFRS financial measures excluding notable items are included as a reference point only and are not incorporated within any of the key financial metrics used in our Group Targets, which are measured on a statutory basis.
