Notes
The term Barclays or Group refers to Barclays PLC together with its subsidiaries and the term Barclays Bank PLC Group refers to Barclays Bank PLC together with its subsidiaries. The term 'The Group' refers to Barclays Bank PLC together with its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise stated, the income statement analysis compares the year ended 31 December 2014 to the corresponding twelve months of 2013 and balance sheet analysis as at 31 December 2014 with comparatives relating to 31 December 2013. The abbreviations 'GBPm' and 'GBPbn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Pounds Sterling respectively; and the abbreviations '$m' and '$bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of US Dollars respectively.
The comparatives have been restated to reflect the implementation of the Group structure changes and the reallocation of elements of the Head Office results under the revised business structure. These restatements were detailed in our announcement on 10 July 2014, accessible at http://www.barclays.com/barclays-investor-relations/results-and-reports. Balance sheet comparative figures have also been restated to adopt the offsetting amendments to IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation.
References throughout this Results Announcement to 'provisions for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange' means a provision of GBP1,250m held as at 31 December 2014 for certain aspects of ongoing investigations involving certain authorities and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange.
Adjusted profit before tax, adjusted attributable profit and adjusted performance metrics have been presented to provide a more consistent basis for comparing business performance between periods. Adjusting items are considered to be significant but not representative of the underlying business performance. Items excluded from the adjusted measures are: the impact of own credit; goodwill impairment; provisions for Payment Protection Insurance and claims management costs (PPI) and interest rate hedging redress; gain on US Lehman acquisition assets; provision for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange; loss on announced sale of the Spanish business; and Education, Social Housing, and Local Authority (ESHLA) valuation revision. As management reviews adjusting items at a Group level, results by business are presented excluding these items. The reconciliation of adjusted to statutory performance is done at a Group level only.
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 that can be accessed at www.Barclays.com/results.
This results announcement has been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 included in the Annual Report, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The information in this announcement, which was approved by the Board of Directors on 2 March 2015 does not comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2014, which include certain information required for the Joint Annual Report on Form 20-F of Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC pursuant to the rules of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (2014 20-F) and which contain an unqualified audit report under Section 495 of the Companies Act 2006 (which does not make any statements under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006) will be 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.
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 certain of the Group's plans and its current goals and expectations relating to its future financial condition and performance. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These 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. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding the Group's future financial position, income growth, assets, impairment charges and provisions, business strategy, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, payment of dividends (including dividend pay-out ratios), projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs or savings, original and revised commitments and targets in connection with the Transform Programme and Group Strategy Update, run-down of assets and businesses within Barclays Non-Core, estimates of capital expenditures and plans and objectives for future operations, projected employee numbers and other statements that are not historical fact. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. These may be affected by changes in legislation, the development of standards and interpretations under IFRS, evolving practices with regard to the interpretation and application of accounting and regulatory standards, the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations, future levels of conduct provisions, the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities, geopolitical risks and the impact of competition. In addition, factors including (but not limited to) the following may have an effect: capital, leverage and other regulatory rules (including with regard to the future structure of the Group) applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Africa, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions; the effects of continued volatility in credit markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; effects of changes in valuation of credit market exposures; changes in valuation of issued securities; volatility in capital markets; changes in credit ratings of the Group; the potential for one or more countries exiting the Eurozone; the impact of EU and US sanctions on Russia; the implementation of the Transform Programme; and the success of future acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these influences and factors are beyond the Group's control. As a result, the Group's actual future results, dividend payments, and capital and leverage ratios may differ materially from the plans, goals, and expectations set forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors are identified in our filings with the SEC including our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2013, which are available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov; and in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2014, which is available on the Barclays Investor Relations website at www.barclays.com/investorrelations.
Any forward-looking statements made herein speak only as of the date they are made and it should not be assumed that they have been revised or updated in the light of new information or future events. Except as required by the Prudential Regulation Authority, the Financial Conduct Authority, the London Stock Exchange plc (the LSE) or applicable law, Barclays expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in Barclays' expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. The reader should, however, consult any additional disclosures that Barclays has made or may make in documents it has published or may publish via the Regulatory News Service of the LSE and/or has filed or may file with the SEC, including the 2014 20-F.
Basis of Preparation
More extensive disclosures are contained in the Barclays PLC Results Announcement for the year ended 31 December 2014, attached, including risk exposures and business performance, which are materially the same as those for Barclays Bank PLC.
Barclays Bank PLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Barclays PLC, which is the Group's ultimate parent company. The business activities of Barclays Bank PLC Group and Barclays PLC Group are fundamentally the same as the only difference is the holding company, Barclays PLC. Reporting differences between Barclays Bank PLC and Barclays PLC are driven by the holding company and resulting differences in funding structures. The significant differences are described below.
Barclays PLC Barclays Bank PLC Instrument Type GBPm GBPm Primary reason for difference ================================== ============= ================== =============================================== Preference shares - 5,846 Preference shares and capital notes issued by Barclays Bank PLC are included within share capital in Barclays Bank PLC, and presented as non-controlling interests in the financial statements of Barclays PLC Group. ================================== ============= ================== =============================================== Other shareholders' equity - 485 ================================== ============= ================== =============================================== Non-controlling interests (NCI) 6,391 2,251 ================================== ============= ================== =============================================== Treasury shares (84) - Barclays PLC shares held for the purposes of employee share schemes and for trading are recognised as available for sale investments and trading portfolio assets respectively within Barclays Bank PLC. Barclays PLC deducts these treasury shares from shareholders' equity. Capital Redemption Reserve (CRR) 394 24 Arising from the redemption or exchange of Barclays PLC or Barclays Bank PLC shares respectively.
Barclays Bank PLC Preference Share Exchange and Repurchase
During Q2 2014 Barclays Bank PLC preference shares with a total book value of GBP1.5bn were repurchased by Barclays Bank PLC as part of an overall exchange of those preference shares (together with subordinated debt instruments with a nominal value of GBP0.6bn), for three issuances of Barclays PLC Fixed Rate Resetting Perpetual Subordinated Contingent Convertible Securities, with principal amounts of $1.2bn, EUR1.1bn and GBP0.7bn. Upon completion of the exercise, Barclays Bank PLC repurchased the preference shares for cash, funded from retained earnings, at a fair value of GBP1.7bn. In accordance with capital maintenance rules in the Companies Act 2006, a Capital Redemption Reserve (CRR) of GBP16m equal to the preference share capital nominal translated at current exchange rates was established in Barclays Bank PLC. As the preference shares are presented as NCI in the financial statements of Barclays PLC, the exchange resulted in a reduction in NCI for Barclays PLC.
Barclays Bank PLC Preference Share Redemption
During Q4 2014 Barclays Bank PLC preference shares with a total book value of GBP0.7bn were redeemed on their first call date. The cash redemption of the preference shares by Barclays Bank PLC at a fair value of GBP0.8bn was funded from retained earnings. In accordance with capital maintenance rules in the Companies Act 2006, a Capital Redemption Reserve (CRR) of GBP8m equal to the preference share capital nominal translated at current exchange rates was established in Barclays Bank PLC. As the preference shares are presented as NCI in the financial statements of Barclays PLC, the exchange resulted in a reduction in NCI for Barclays PLC.
Barclays Bank PLC Contingent Capital Notes
Barclays Bank PLC has in issue two series of contingent capital notes (CCNs). These both pay interest and principal to the holder unless the consolidated CRD IV CET 1 ratio (FSA October 2012 transitional statement). of Barclays PLC falls below 7%, in which case they are cancelled from the consolidated perspective. The coupon payable on the CCNs is higher than a market rate of interest for a similar note without this risk.
The accounting for these instruments differs between the consolidated financial statements of Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC as follows:
- In the case of the 7.675% CCN issuance, the cancellation is effected by an automatic legal transfer from the holder to Barclays PLC. In these circumstances, Barclays Bank PLC remains liable to Barclays PLC. Barclays Bank PLC does not benefit from the cancellation feature although it pays a higher than market rate for a similar note, and therefore the initial fair value of the note recognised was higher than par. The difference between fair value and par is amortised to the income statement over time.
- In the case of the 7.75% CCN issuance, the cancellation is directly effected in Barclays Bank PLC. For Barclays Bank PLC, the cancellation feature is separately valued from the host liability as an embedded derivative with changes in fair value reported in the income statement. The initial fair value of the host liability recognised was higher than par by the amount of the initial fair value of the derivative and the difference is amortised to the income statement over time.
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
Each of the Directors (the names of whom are set out below) confirm that:

- to the best of their knowledge, the management information (set out on pages 3 to 8) includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Company and the undertakings included in the consolidation taken as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face.

Notes
The term Barclays or Group refers to Barclays PLC together with its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise stated, the income statement analysis compares the year ended 31 December 2014 to the corresponding twelve months of 2013 and balance sheet analysis as at 31 December 2014 with comparatives relating to 31 December 2013. The abbreviations 'GBPm' and 'GBPbn' represent millions and thousands of millions of Pounds Sterling respectively; and the abbreviations '$m' and '$bn' represent millions and thousands of millions of US Dollars respectively.
The comparatives have been restated to reflect the implementation of the Group structure changes and the reallocation of elements of the Head Office results under the revised business structure. These restatements were detailed in our announcement on 10 July 2014, accessible at http://www.barclays.com/barclays-investor-relations/results-and-reports. Balance sheet comparative figures have also been restated to adopt the offsetting amendments to IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation.
References throughout this Results Announcement to 'provisions for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange' means a provision of GBP1,250m held as at 31 December 2014 for certain aspects of ongoing investigations involving certain authorities and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange.
Adjusted profit before tax, adjusted attributable profit and adjusted performance metrics have been presented to provide a more consistent basis for comparing business performance between periods. Adjusting items are considered to be significant but not representative of the underlying business performance. Items excluded from the adjusted measures are: the impact of own credit; goodwill impairment; provisions for Payment Protection Insurance and claims management costs (PPI) and interest rate hedging redress; gain on US Lehman acquisition assets; provision for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange; loss on announced sale of the Spanish business; and Education, Social Housing, and Local Authority (ESHLA) valuation revision. As management reviews adjusting items at a Group level, results by business are presented excluding these items. The reconciliation of adjusted to statutory performance is done at a Group level only.
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 that can be accessed at www.Barclays.com/results.

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 certain of the Group's plans and its current goals and expectations relating to its future financial condition and performance. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future performance and that actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These 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. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding the Group's future financial position, income growth, assets, impairment charges and provisions, business strategy, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, payment of dividends (including dividend pay-out ratios), projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs or savings, original and revised commitments and targets in connection with the Transform Programme and Group Strategy Update, run-down of assets and businesses within Barclays Non-Core, estimates of capital expenditures and plans and objectives for future operations, projected employee numbers and other statements that are not historical fact. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. These may be affected by changes in legislation, the development of standards and interpretations under IFRS, evolving practices with regard to the interpretation and application of accounting and regulatory standards, the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations, future levels of conduct provisions, the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory authorities, geopolitical risks and the impact of competition. In addition, factors including (but not limited to) the following may have an effect: capital, leverage and other regulatory rules (including with regard to the future structure of the Group) applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Africa, Eurozone and global macroeconomic and business conditions; the effects of continued volatility in credit markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; effects of changes in valuation of credit market exposures; changes in valuation of issued securities; volatility in capital markets; changes in credit ratings of the Group; the potential for one or more countries exiting the Eurozone; the impact of EU and US sanctions on Russia; the implementation of the Transform Programme; and the success of future acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these influences and factors are beyond the Group's control. As a result, the Group's actual future results, dividend payments, and capital and leverage ratios may differ materially from the plans, goals, and expectations set forth in the Group's forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors are identified in our filings with the SEC including our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2013, which are available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov; and in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2014, which is available on the Barclays Investor Relations website at www.barclays.com/investorrelations.

Performance Highlights
Steady progress towards our Transform targets. Higher Group and Core profit before tax were driven by focused cost saving initiatives. Significant Non-Core run down throughout the year contributed to strengthening of Group capital and leverage ratios
- Group adjusted profit before tax increased 12% to GBP5,502m with Core profit before tax increasing 3% to GBP6,682m
and areduction in Non-Core loss before tax of 24% to GBP1,180m
- Total adjusted operating expenses decreased 9% to GBP18,069m driven by savings from Transform programmes,
including a 5% net reduction in headcount. Operating expenses excluding costs to achieve Transform reduced
GBP1,780m to GBP16,904m
- Credit impairment charges reduced 29% to GBP2,168m, with a GBP732m reduction in Non-Core to GBP168m and an 8%
reduction in the Core business to GBP2,000m
- Within the Core business, Personal & Corporate Banking (PCB) andBarclaycard continued to grow profits, with both increasing income and reducing operating expenses excluding costs to achieve Transform. Africa Banking reported improved constant currency results, with reported results impacted by adverse currency movements. The Investment Bank made further progress on its strategic repositioning whilst driving cost savings and RWA efficiencies, despite challenging market conditions impacting income. Core return on average equity excluding costs to achieve Transform of 10.9% (2013: 12.7%)
- Non-Core run-down made good progress, with RWAs reducing GBP35bn to GBP75bn. Period end allocated equity reduced GBP4bn to GBP11bn
- Fully loaded CRD IV Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio increased to 10.3% (2013: 9.1%) achieving further
progress towards the 2016 Transform target in excess of 11%. The improvement was mainly driven by a GBP40.6bn reduction in RWAs to GBP402bn, demonstrating good progress on the Non-Core run-down, and capital growth to GBP41.5bn (2013: GBP40.4bn). Including the sale of the Spanish business,completed on 2 January 2015, the fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio would haveincreased to 10.5% as at 31 December 2014
- The BCBS 270 leverage ratio increasedto 3.7% (September 2014: 3.5%), close to our 2016 Transform target in
excess of 4%. The increase was due to a significant reduction in leverage exposure in Q414 to GBP1,233bn (September
2014: GBP1,324bn) driven by a seasonal reduction in settlement balances and continued reductions in Non-Core leverage
exposure
- Net tangible asset value per share increased to 285p (2013: 283p)
Material adjusting items:
- A valuation revision of GBP935m was recognised in Q414 against the Education, Social Housing, and Local Authority (ESHLA) loan portfolio held at fair value in Barclays Non-Core. This is due to changes in discount rates applied in the valuation methodology. This revision does not impact either the CET1 or leverage ratio
- A provision of GBP1,250m was recognised in H214 for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange. This included an additional provision of GBP750m recognised in Q414
- An additional PPI redress provision of GBP200m was recognised in Q414 based on an updated best estimate of future redress and associated costs, resulting in a full year net charge of GBP1,110m in relation to PPI and interest rate hedging redress
- A GBP461m gain on US Lehman acquisition assets wasrecognised in Q314 (Q213: GBP259m)
- A loss was realised on the announced sale of the Spanish business of GBP446m in Q3 and Q414, which completed on 2 January 2015. In addition, accumulated currency translation reserve losses of approximately GBP100m will be recognised on completion in Q115

Group Chief Executive Officer's Review
"Barclays today is a stronger business, with better prospects, than at any time since the financial crisis.
While our work in transforming the bank is not complete, our performance in 2014 gives us confidence that we are on the right track.
Group adjusted profit before tax increased 12% year on year. Our Personal and Corporate Banking and Barclaycard businesses continue to thrive and grow, Africa Banking has done well despite currency headwinds, and we saw encouraging performance in several areas of our Investment Bank.
We made good progress against our Transform 2016 targets during the year, notably on cost, capital, and leverage, providing further evidence that our strategy is working.
On cost, we delivered significant reductions in 2014, with operating costs reducing nearly GBP1.8bn, equivalent to 10% of the Group adjusted cost base excluding costs to achieve Transform. This achievement over the past twelve months, with further reductions to come in 2015, will better position Barclays to grow returns and drive sustainable competitive advantages across all of our businesses. In our Core business, the future of Barclays, adjusted Return on Equity was nearly 11% excluding costs to achieve Transform, tracking well towards the 12% plus we are targeting for 2016. Barclays Non-Core run-down is ahead of target, with RWAs reducing by nearly GBP35bn to GBP75bn, and its RoE dilution reducing from 7.2% to 4.1%.
We made substantial progress in strengthening our capital position in 2014. Our fully loaded CET1 ratio improved to 10.5%, taking into account the effect of the disposal of our Spanish business completed on 2 January 2015 and a further provision in Q4 for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange, compared to 9.1% a year ago. Equally important, our leverage ratio increased to 3.7%. This means we are now well positioned to achieve the Transform 2016 targets of greater than 11% and 4% respectively.
In terms of dividends, we declared a cash dividend of 6.5p for 2014 despite the impact of provisions for conduct items. We have a growing confidence in the capital position of the Group and continue to target a 40-50% payout ratio.
Barclays is also making steady progress on the targets in our Balanced Scorecard, implemented across the organisation for the first time this year. Specific measures across Customers and Clients, Colleagues, Conduct, Citizenship, and Company - tied directly to executive and staff appraisals and remuneration - ensure that we are delivering performance in the right way, in line with our purpose and values.
We remain focussed on addressing outstanding conduct issues, including those relating to Foreign Exchange trading. I regard the behaviour at the centre of these investigations as wholly incompatible with our values, and I share the frustration of colleagues and shareholders that matters like these continue to cast a shadow over our business. But resolving these issues is an important part of our plan for Barclays and, although it may be difficult, I expect that we will make significant progress in this area in 2015.
So despite our real progress in 2014, we still have more work to do. We are determined to build on the momentum across the Group, to continue to improve returns across our businesses, and to accelerate execution of our plans.
2015 will be a year of continued delivery for Barclays."
Antony Jenkins, Group Chief Executive
Group Finance Director's Review
Income statement
Group performance
-- Adjusted profit before tax increased 12% to GBP5,502m driven by improvements in PCB, Barclaycard and Non-Core, partially offset by a reduction in the Investment Bank and adverse currency movements impacting Africa Banking reported results
-- Adjusted income decreased 8% to GBP25,728m whilst impairment reduced 29% to GBP2,168m, resulting in a 5% decrease in net operating income to GBP23,560m
-- Total adjusted operating expenses were down 9% to GBP18,069m, driven by savings from Transform programmes, including a 5% net reduction in headcount, and currency movements
- Total compensation costs decreased 8% to GBP8,891m, with the Investment Bank reducing 9% to GBP3,620m, reflecting
reduced headcount, and lower deferred and current year bonus charges
- Operating expenses excluding costs to achieve Transform were GBP16,904m (2013: GBP18,684m). Costs to achieve
Transform were GBP1,165m (2013: GBP1,209m)
-- Statutory profit before tax was GBP2,256m (2013: GBP2,868m) principally reflecting an additional GBP1,110m (2013: GBP2,000m) net
provision for PPI and interest rate hedging redress, a gain on US Lehman acquisition assets of GBP461m (2013: GBP259m), a
GBP1,250m provision for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange, a GBP446m loss on the announced
sale of the Spanish business, and a GBP935m ESHLA valuation revision
-- The effective tax rate on adjusted profit before tax decreased to 31.0% (2013: 40.0%) and on statutory profit before tax
increased to 62.5% (2013: 54.8%), principally due to non-deductible expenses, including the provision for ongoing
investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange. Additionally, the 2013 effective tax rate included a GBP440m write down
of deferred tax assets in Spain
-- Adjusted group attributable profit was GBP2,779m (2013: GBP2,188m), increasing the adjusted Group return on average
shareholders' equity to 5.1% (2013: 4.1%)
Core performance
-- Profit before tax increased 3% to GBP6,682m, as improvements in PCB and Barclaycard were partially offset by a reduction in the Investment Bank and currency movements impacting the reported results of Africa Banking
-- Income decreased 4% to GBP24,678m, reflecting a 12% reduction in the Investment Bank to GBP7,588m and a reduction in Africa
Banking due to adverse currency movements, partially offset by growth in Barclaycard and PCB. Investment Bank Q414 income was down 7% to GBP1,666m relative to Q413 due to reduced client activity and lower volatility in Credit and Macro, which were down 25% and 14% respectively
- Net interest income in PCB, Barclaycard and Africa Banking increased 4% to GBP11,435m driven by strong income growth in PCB and volume growth in Barclaycard, partially offset by a reduction in Africa Banking due to currency movements. This resulted in a net interest margin of 4.08% (2013: 4.02%)
-- Credit impairment charges improved 8% to GBP2,000m, reflecting lower impairments in PCB due to the improving UK economic environment, particularly impacting Corporate which benefitted from one-off releases and lower defaults from large UK Corporate clients, and reduced impairments in the Africa Banking South Africa mortgages portfolio. Q414 credit impairment charges increased to GBP573m (Q314: GBP509m) due to enhanced coverage for forbearance in Barclaycard
-- Total operating expenses decreased 6% to GBP16,058m, reflecting significant savings from Transform programmes across the
businesses, partially offset by higher costs to achieve Transform of GBP953m (2013: GBP671m). Costs to achieve Transform increased in Q414 to GBP298m (Q314: GBP202m) predominantly within PCB, due to restructuring of the branch network and technology improvements to increase automation
-- Attributable profit decreased to GBP3,864m (2013: GBP4,078m), reflecting a higher effective tax rate principally due to the non-
recurrence of a tax credit, which reduced the rate in 2013, and distributions to other equity holders in relation to Additional Tier 1 (AT1) instruments in 2014. Average allocated equity increased to GBP42bn (2013: GBP36bn), resulting in the Core return on equity decreasing to 9.2% (2013: 11.3%)
Non-Core performance
-- Loss before tax reduced 24% to GBP1,180m, reflecting:
- Lower income of GBP1,050m (2013: GBP2,293m) following assets and securities run-down, and business disposals, partially offset by a GBP119m gain on sale of the UAE retail banking portfolio
- An improvement in credit impairment charges of GBP732m to GBP168m driven by the non-recurrence of impairments on single name exposures, impairment releases on the wholesale portfolio and improved performance in Europe
- A 29% reduction in total operating expenses to GBP2,011m reflecting savings from Transform programmes, including lower headcount and the results of the previously announced European retail restructuring, and reduced costs to achieve Transform of GBP212m (2013: GBP538m)
-- The Non-Core dilution on the Group's return on equity improved to 4.1% (2013: 7.2%) reflecting a GBP35bn reduction in RWAs
Balance sheet and leverage
Balance sheet
- Total assets remained broadly in line at GBP1,358bn (2013: GBP1,344bn)
- Derivative assets increased GBP90bn to GBP440bn, consistent with the increase in derivative liabilities of GBP92bn to GBP439bn,
primarily due to an increase in interest rate derivatives as major forward interest rates reduced
- Reverse repurchase agreements and other similar secured lending decreased GBP55bn to GBP132bn from lower matched
book trading due to balance sheet deleveraging
- Total loans and advances decreased GBP4bn to GBP470bn as lending growth in Barclaycard and PCB was partially offset by the GBP13bn reclassification of loans to other assets, relating to the Spanish business which was held for sale
- Customer accounts decreased GBP4bn to GBP428bn as a result of the reclassification of GBP8bn in relation to the Spanish business to other liabilities, partially offset by GBP5bn of growth within PCB and Barclaycard
- Total shareholders' equity including non-controlling interests was GBP66bn (2013: GBP64bn). Excluding non-controlling interests,
shareholders' equity increased to GBP60bn (2013: GBP55bn), primarily reflecting a GBP2bn increase in other equity instruments, due
to issuance of equity accounted AT1 securities to investors in exchange for the cancellation of preference shares and
subordinated debt instruments, and a GBP2bn increase in the cash flow hedge reserve driven by gains as forward interest rates
decreased
- Net asset value per share increased to 335p (2013: 331p) and net tangible asset value per share increased to 285p (2013:
283p)
Leverage exposure
- The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) 270 leverage exposure decreased GBP91bn to GBP1,233bn during Q414
primarily due to:
- Loans and advances and other assets decreased by GBP52bn to GBP713bn primarily due to a seasonal reduction in settlement balances of GBP28bn and a GBP13bn reduction in cash balances
- Securities Financing Transactions (SFTs) decreased GBP35bn to GBP157bn due to reductions in reverse repurchase
agreements, and in SFT adjustments reflecting reduced activity in Non-Core and a seasonal reduction in trading volumes
- The Potential Future Exposure (PFE) on derivatives decreased GBP16bn to GBP179bn mainly due to reductions in business
activity and optimisations, including trade compressions and tear-ups
Capital management
- The fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio increased to 10.3% (2013: 9.1%) due to a GBP40.6bn reduction in risk weighted assets (RWAs) to GBP402bn and an increase in the fully loaded CRD IV CET1 capital of GBP1.1bn to GBP41.5bn
- The increase in CET1 capital, after absorbing GBP3.3bn of adjusting items, was driven by a GBP1.6bn increase in other
qualifying reserves and a GBP0.6bn increase due to lower regulatory adjustments and deductions. This was partially offset by
GBP1.2bn recognised for dividends. Including the sale of the Spanish business, completed on 2 January 2015, the fully
loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio would have increased to 10.5% as at 31 December 2014
- The RWA reduction was mainly driven by a GBP35bn reduction in Non-Core to GBP75bn reflecting the disposal of businesses,
run-down and exit of securities and loans, and derivative risk reductions
- The BCBS 270 leverage ratio increased to 3.7% (September 2014: 3.5%), reflecting a reduction in the BCBS 270 leverage
exposure to GBP1,233bn (September 2014: GBP1,324bn) driven by a seasonal reduction in settlement balances and continued
reductions in Non-Core exposure. Including the sale of the Spanish business, completed on 2 January 2015, the BCBS 270
leverage ratio would have increased to 3.8% as at 31 December 2014
Funding and liquidity
- During 2014, the Group strengthened its liquidity position, building a larger surplus to its Liquidity Risk Appetite. This
positions the Group well for potential rating changes as credit rating agencies assess sovereign support in Barclays Bank
PLC's credit ratings. This resulted in an increase in the Group liquidity pool to GBP149bn (2013: GBP127bn). The estimated CRD IV
Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) increased to 124% (2013: 96%), equivalent to a surplus of GBP30bn (2013: shortfall of GBP6bn)
- The Group funding profile remains stable and well diversified. Wholesale funding outstanding (excluding repurchase
agreements) was GBP171bn (2013: GBP186bn). The Group was active in wholesale unsecured, secured and debt capital markets,
issuing GBP15bn (2013: GBP1bn) net of early redemptions
Legal, competition and regulatory matters
- The Group faces legal, competition and regulatory challenges, details of which are set out in note 29 of the Annual Report on pages 306-314. The extent of the impact on the Group of these matters cannot always be predicted but may materially impact our operations, financial results, conditions and prospects
- Provisions of GBP1,690m (2013: GBP485m) are held for legal, competition and regulatory matters. Changes to these provisions and to asset values impacted by such matters during 2014 include the following:
- A provision of GBP1,250m was recognised for certain aspects of ongoing investigations involving certain authorities and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange. This included an additional provision of GBP750m recognised in Q414.
- A gain of GBP461m was recognised in Q314 reflecting greater certainty around the recoverability of assets not yet received from the 2008 US Lehman acquisition. This change in asset value followed a favourable ruling during Q314 from the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
Other matters
- A valuation revision of GBP935m has been recognised in Q414 against the ESHLA portfolio held at a GBP17.4bn fair value in
Barclays Non-Core. This portfolio primarily consists of long dated fixed rate loans with strong credit quality. Valuation uncertainty is derived from their long-dated nature, and lack of secondary market and observable loan spreads
The revision was due to a Q414 change in the valuation methodology, incorporating information on external parties and the factors they may take into account when valuing these assets. This is also consistent with recent industry trends changing asset valuations away from Libor-based discounting. This revision does not impact the CET1 ratio, as there was a corresponding reduction in the Prudential Valuation Adjustment (PVA) for this portfolio at year end
- The provision for PPI redress was GBP1,059m (2013: GBP971m) following utilisation of GBP1,182m and the recognition of additional amounts of GBP1,270m. This included the recognition of an additional amount of GBP200m in Q414 based on an updated estimate of future redress and associated costs. The remaining provision reflects Barclays' best current estimate of future costs(1)
- The provision for interest rate hedging product redress was GBP211m (2013: GBP1,169m) after utilisation of GBP798m and a provision release of GBP160m in Q314. The review is now substantially complete with redress outcomes communicated to nearly all customers covered by the redress exercise during 2014(1)
The loss on the announced sale of the Spanish business of GBP446m represents a GBP761m impairment of assets in the Spanish businesses agreed for sale at the end of the year, partially offset by a GBP315m gain on related hedging instruments. Accumulated currency translation reserve losses of approximately GBP100m will be recognised on completion of the sale on 2 January 2015. Post completion, assets will reduce by GBP13.4bn, liabilities will reduce by GBP12.8bn and RWAs will reduce by GBP5.0bn. The foregone annual income from the Spanish business sold of approximately GBP280m will be largely offset by a GBP240m reduction in operating expenses
1 For further detail on customer redress provisions refer to note 27 of the Annual Report on pages 303-305.
Dividends
- A final dividend for 2014 of 3.5p per share will be paid on 2 April 2015 resulting in a total 6.5p dividend per share for the year. Total dividends paid to ordinary shareholders increased 23% to GBP1,057m
Outlook
- Although there remains uncertainty in the global macroeconomic environment, which is expected to persist through the year, we believe there will be greater clarity on regulatory requirements and several conduct issues during 2015. Our priority is to continue strengthening the capital position of the Group, targeting a fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio above 11% in 2016, after taking account of any conduct items resolved
- We expect to make further progress in 2015 on the run-down of the Non-Core unit, towards our target of GBP45bn risk weighted assets in 2016 (revised for completion of the sale of the Spanish business in January). Income in Non-Core is expected to reduce significantly from 2014 levels, as seen in the fourth quarter, as businesses and portfolios are sold or run-off. We continue to expect the Non-Core dilution on the Group's return on equity in 2015 to remain within the 3% to 6% guidelines communicated previously
- Credit quality across the Group is expected to remain consistent with recent underlying trends, reflecting broader economic
factors in the markets in which the Group operates. In terms of operating expenses, we expect to drive further reductions
beyond those achieved in 2014, targeting GBP16.3bn for the Group, excluding costs to achieve Transform (CTA), for 2015. CTA
is projected to be approximately GBP700m for 2015 and GBP200m in 2016. We also expect net interest margin to be broadly stable
in 2015. Based on current trends and a strong Banking pipeline, we expect Q1 2015 income for the Investment Bank to be
well ahead of Q4 reported income and approaching that of Q1 2014
- For the Group overall, we intend to build on the positive underlying momentum seen within our businesses, towards
achievement of the 2016 Transform targets. We will also accelerate delivery of these targets wherever possible

2014 compared to 2013
- Profit before tax increased 29% to GBP2,885m driven by 3% growth in Personal income, lower impairment due to the improving economic environment in the UK, and the continued reduction in operating expenses due to progress on the Transform strategy. This resulted in a 2.2% increase in return on average equity to 11.9%. In Personal, income increased GBP119m alongside significant cost reductions, with the net closure of 72 branches as part of ongoing branch network optimisation, as well as investment in the customer experience across multiple channels. Corporate increased both loans and deposits, and Wealth undertook a substantial reorganisation to reduce the number of target markets while simplifying operations
- Total income increased 1% to GBP8,828m
- Personal income increased 3% to GBP4,159m due to balance growth and improved savings margins, partially offset by lower fee income
- Corporate income was broadly in line at GBP3,592m (2013: GBP3,620m), with balance growth in both lending and deposits,
offset by margin compression
- Wealth income was broadly in line at GBP1,077m (2013: GBP1,063m) driven by growth in the UK business, offset by client and market exits as part of the reorganisations in the US and EU businesses, and lower fee income
- Net interest income increased 7% to GBP6,298m driven by lending and deposit growth and margin improvement. Net interest margin improved 9bps to 3.00% primarily due to the launch of a revised overdraft proposition, which recognises the majority of overdraft income as net interest income as opposed to fee income, and higher savings margins within Personal and Wealth. These factors were partially offset by lower Corporate deposit margins
- Net fee and commission income reduced 10% to GBP2,443m due to the launch of the revised overdraft proposition and lower transactional income in Wealth
- Credit impairment charges improved 22% to GBP482m and the loan loss rate reduced 7bps to 21bps due to the improving
economic environment in the UK, particularly impacting Corporate which benefited from one-off releases and lower defaults
from large UK Corporate clients
- Total operating expenses reduced 7% to GBP5,475m reflecting savings realised from Transform programmes relating to
restructuring of the branch network and technology improvements to increase automation
- Loans and advances to customers increased 2% to GBP217.0bn due to mortgage growth and Corporate loan growth
- Total assets increased 2% to GBP285.0bn driven by the growth in loans and advances to customers
- Customer deposits increased to GBP299.2bn (2013: GBP295.9bn)
- RWAs increased 2% to GBP120.2bn primarily driven by growth in mortgage and Corporate lending
Q414 compared to Q314
- Profit before tax reduced 20% to GBP628m driven by higher costs to achieve Transform of GBP195m (Q314: GBP90m), due to
restructuring of the branch network and increased spend on technology improvements, and UK bank levy of GBP70m (Q314: GBPnil)

2014 compared to 2013
- Profit before tax increased 13% to GBP1,339m. Strong growth in 2014 was delivered through a diversified consumer and
merchant business model, with customer numbers increasing to 30m (2013: 26m) and asset growth across all geographies
generating a 6% increase in income. Growth has been managed on a well-controlled cost base, with the business focusing
on scale through insourcing of services, consolidation of sites and digitalisation, resulting in an improvement in the cost to
income ratio to 43% (2013: 45%). The business focus on risk management is reflected in stable 30-day delinquency rates
and falling loan loss rates. The diversified and scaled business model has allowed the business to deliver a strong return on
average equity of 16.0% (2013: 15.5%)
- Total income increased 6% to GBP4,356m reflecting growth in the UK consumer and merchant, Germany and US businesses,
partially offset by depreciation of average USD against GBP
- Net interest income increased 8% to GBP3,044m driven by volume growth. Net interest margin decreased to 8.75% (2013:
8.99%) due to a change in product mix and the impact of promotional offers, particularly in the US, partially offset by lower
funding costs
- Net fee and commission income increased 2% to GBP1,286m due to growth in payment volumes
- Credit impairment charges increased 8% to GBP1,183m due to asset growth and enhanced coverage for forbearance.
Delinquency rates remained broadly stable and the loan loss rate reduced 24bps to 308bps
- Total operating expenses increased 1% to GBP1,874m driven by higher costs to achieve Transform of GBP118m (2013: GBP49m),
partially offset by depreciation of average USD against GBP, VAT refunds and savings from Transform programmes, including
insourcing of services, consolidation of sites and digitalisation
- Loans and advances to customers increased 16% to GBP36.6bn reflecting growth across all geographies, including the impact of promotional offers and the acquisition of portfolios in the US
- Total assets increased 20% to GBP41.3bn due to the increase in loans and advances to customers
- Customer deposits increased 43% to GBP7.3bn driven by the deposits funding strategy in the US
- RWAs increased 12% to GBP39.9bn primarily driven by the growth in loans and advances to customers
Q414 compared to Q314
- Profit before tax reduced 41% to GBP213m due to an update to effective interest rate assumptions reducing Q4 income,
increased impairment driven by enhanced coverage for forbearance, UK bank levy of GBP29m (Q314: GBPnil) and higher costs to
achieve Transform of GBP50m (Q314: GBP32m)

2014 compared to 2013
- On a reported basis(2) , total income net of insurance claims decreased 9% to GBP3,664m and profit before tax decreased 6% to GBP984m. Based on average rates, the ZAR depreciated against GBP by 18% in 2014. The deterioration was a significant contributor to the movement in the reported results of Africa Banking. The discussion of business performance below is based on results on a constant currency basis(1) unless otherwise stated
- Profit before tax increased 13% to GBP984m, reflecting good growth in Corporate and Investment Banking (CIB) and Retail and Business Banking (RBB). CIB experienced strong income growth, driven by the corporate banking business outside South Africa, and improved investment banking trading performance across Africa. Continued progress was made on the RBB South Africa turnaround strategy, with increased net fee and commission income growth in the second half of the year, and Wealth, Investment Management and Insurance (WIMI) delivered strong growth outside South Africa due to expansion initiatives
- Total income net of insurance claims increased 7% to GBP3,664m
- Net interest income increased 9% to GBP2,093m, primarily driven by higher average loans and advances to customers in CIB and growth in customer deposits in RBB in South Africa. Net interest margin on a reported basis(2) increased 14bps to 5.95% following the rise in the South African benchmark interest rate and the favourable impact of higher deposit margins, partially offset by lower rates outside South Africa
- Net fee and commission income increased 2% to GBP1,086m mainly reflecting increased RBB transactions in South Africa
- Credit impairment charges decreased 14% to GBP349m and on a reported basis(2) the loan loss rate improved 35bps to 93bps, driven by reduced impairments in the South Africa mortgages portfolio and business banking, partially offset by increased impairments in the card portfolio
- Total operating expenses increased 8% to GBP2,342m largely reflecting inflationary increases, resulting in higher staff costs, and increased investment spend on key initiatives, including higher costs to achieve Transform of GBP51m (2013: GBP23m), partially offset by savings from Transform programmes
- Loans and advances to customers increased 5% to GBP35.2bn primarily driven by strong corporate banking growth across Africa in CIB and limited growth in RBB, mainly due to a modest reduction in the South Africa mortgages portfolio
- Total assets increased 5% to GBP55.5bn due to the increase in loans and advances to customers
- Customer deposits increased 5% to GBP35.0bn reflecting strong growth in the South African RBB business
- RWAs increased 1% to GBP38.5bn on a reported basis(2) , primarily driven by growth in loans and advances to customers, partially offset by the depreciation of ZAR against GBP
Q414 compared to Q314
- Profit before tax decreased 16% to GBP228m on a reported basis(2) , due to the UK bank levy of GBP45m (Q314: GBPnil) and increased costs to achieve Transform of GBP23m (Q314: GBP11m), partially offset by increased income driven by a seasonal increase in RBB in South Africa and the appreciation of ZAR against GBP in the quarter

1 2013 adjusted income and profit before tax have been restated to exclude the Q213 GBP259m gain relating to assets not yet received from the US Lehman acquisition to aid comparability given its material nature in the current year. In addition, December 2013 US Lehman acquisition assets and RWAs of GBP1.6bn have been restated for the reclassification of these assets from the Investment Bank to Head Office to more accurately reflect responsibility for the resolution of this matter.
2 As at 31 December 2014 loans and advances included GBP86.4bn (2013: GBP84.1bn) of loans and advances to customers (including settlement balances of GBP25.8bn (2013: GBP33.2bn) and cash collateral of GBP32.2bn (2013: GBP25.6bn)) and loans and advances to banks of GBP19.9bn (2013: GBP20.4bn) (including settlement balances of GBP2.7bn (2013: GBP4.4bn) and cash collateral of GBP6.9bn (2013: GBP6.4bn)).
2014 compared to 2013
-- Profit before tax decreased 32% to GBP1,377m. The Investment Bank continues to make progress on its origination-led strategy, building on leading positions in its home markets of the UK and US, while driving cost savings and RWA efficiencies. The business is focused on a simpler product set in Markets, which will enable it to build on existing strengths and adapt to regulatory developments. The business continued to execute this strategy despite difficult market-making conditions and continued low levels of activity. This has particularly impacted credit and interest rate products, resulting in an income decline across the Markets businesses. This decline was partially offset by improved Banking performance and significant cost reductions as a result of savings from Transform programmes
-- Total income decreased 12% to GBP7,588m, including the impact of depreciation of average USD against GBP
- Banking income increased 2% to GBP2,528m. Investment Banking fee income decreased 2% to GBP2,111m driven by lower debt underwriting fees, partially offset by higher financial advisory and equity underwriting fees. Lending income increased to GBP417m (2013: GBP325m) due to lower fair value losses on hedges and higher net interest and fee income
- Markets income decreased 18% to GBP5,040m
- Credit decreased 17% to GBP1,044m driven by reduced volatility and client activity, with lower income in distressed credit, US high yield and US high grade products
- Equities decreased 11% to GBP2,046m due to declines in cash equities and equity derivatives, reflecting lower client volumes, partially offset by higher income in equity financing
- Macro decreased 24% to GBP1,950m reflecting subdued client activity in rates and lower volatility in currency markets in the first half of the year
-- Net credit impairment release of GBP14m (2013: GBP22m) arose from a number of single name exposures
-- Total operating expenses decreased 6% to GBP6,225m reflecting a 9% reduction in compensation costs to GBP3,620m, savings from Transform programmes, including business restructuring, continued rationalisation of the technology platform and real estate infrastructure, and depreciation of average USD against GBP. This was partially offset by increased costs to achieve Transform of GBP374m (2013: GBP190m) and litigation and conduct charges
-- Loans and advances to customers and banks increased 2% to GBP106.3bn driven by an increase in cash collateral and lending, partially offset by a reduction in settlement balances due to reduced activity
-- Derivative financial instrument assets and liabilities increased 40% to GBP152.6bn and 38% to GBP160.6bn respectively, driven by decreases in predominantly GBP, USD and EUR forward interest rates, and strengthening of USD against major currencies
-- Reverse repurchase agreements and other similar secured lending decreased 18% to GBP64.3bn due to decreased match
book trading and funding requirements
-- Total assets increased 4% to GBP455.7bn due to an increase in derivative financial instrument assets, partially offset by a
decrease in reverse repurchase agreements and other similar secured lending, and financial assets at fair value
-- RWAs decreased 2% to GBP122.4bn primarily driven by risk reductions in the trading book, partially offset by the implementation of a revised credit risk model for assessing counterparty probability of default
Q414 compared to Q413
- Total income decreased 7% to GBP1,666m, including the impact of appreciation of average USD against GBP
- Banking income was in line with prior year at GBP638m. Investment Banking fee income decreased 8% to GBP527m driven by decreased underwriting and financial advisory income.

- Macro decreased 14% to GBP424m reflecting subdued client activity and a challenging trading environment in rates
- Total operating expenses decreased 15% to GBP1,624m reflecting lower compensation costs, savings from Transform
programmes, including business restructuring, continued rationalisation of the technology platform and real estate
infrastructure, and lower costs to achieve Transform of GBP22m (Q413: GBP71m). This was partially offset by appreciation of
average USD against GBP
- Profit before tax increased to GBP35m (Q413: loss of GBP137m)
Q414 compared to Q314

appreciation of average USD against GBP, and higher litigation and conduct charges, partially offset by lower costs to achieve
Transform of GBP22m (Q314: GBP70m)
- Profit before tax decreased to GBP35m (Q314: GBP284m)

2014 compared to 2013
-- Profit before tax of GBP97m improved from a loss of GBP15m in 2013
-- Net operating income increased to GBP242m (2013: GBP145m) predominantly due to net gains of GBP88m from foreign exchange
recycling arising from the restructure of group subsidiaries
-- Total operating expenses decreased GBP22m to GBP142m mainly due to a reduction in UK bank levy to GBP9m (2013: GBP29m), the non-recurrence of costs associated with the Salz Review and the establishment of the Transform programme in the prior year, partially offset by increased litigation and conduct charges
-- Total assets increased GBP22.5bn to GBP49.1bn reflecting an increase in the Group liquidity pool assets
-- RWAs decreased GBP10.6bn to GBP5.6bn, including the partial settlement of the US Lehman acquisition assets and a GBP6.9bn revision to 2013 RWAs following full implementation of CRD IV reporting, as disclosed in the 30 June 2014 Results Announcement
-- Negative average allocated equity reduced to GBP0.4bn (2013: GBP7.0bn) as the Group moved towards the allocation rate of 10.5% fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio during the year, resulting in a reduction in excess equity allocated to businesses
Q414 compared to Q314
- Loss before tax of GBP9m moved from a GBP40m profit in Q314 primarily driven by higher operating expenses due to litigation and conduct charges, costs to achieve Transform of GBP8m (Q314: GBPnil) and UK bank levy of GBP9m (Q314: GBPnil)

2014 compared to 2013
- Loss before tax reduced 24% to GBP1,180m as Barclays Non-Core (BNC) made good progress in exiting and running-down certain businesses and securities during 2014. This drove a GBP34.6bn reduction in RWAs, making substantial progress towards the BNC target reductions as outlined in the Group Strategy Update on 8 May 2014
- Total income net of insurance claims reduced 54% to GBP1,050m
- Businesses income reduced 27% to GBP1,101m due to the sale and run-down of legacy portfolio assets and the rationalisation of product offerings within the European retail business
- Securities and Loans income reduced 82% to GBP117m primarily driven by the active run-down of securities, fair value losses on wholesale loan portfolios and the non-recurrence of prior year favourable market movements on certain securitised products, partially offset by a GBP119m gain on the sale of the UAE retail banking portfolio
- Derivatives income reduced GBP321m to an expense of GBP168m reflecting the funding costs of the traded legacy derivatives portfolio and the non-recurrence of fair value gains in the prior year
- Credit impairment charges improved 81% to GBP168m due to the non-recurrence of impairments on single name exposures, impairment releases on the wholesale portfolio as a result of confirmation on Spanish government subsidies in the renewable energy sector, and improved performance in Europe, primarily due to improved recoveries and delinquencies in the mortgages portfolio
- Total operating expenses improved 29% to GBP2,011m reflecting savings from Transform programmes, including lower
headcount and the results of the previously announced European retail restructuring. In addition, costs to achieve Transform
reduced 61% to GBP212m
- Loans and advances to banks and customers reduced 22% to GBP63.9bn due to a GBP12.9bn reclassification of loans relating to the Spanish business, which was held for sale, and a reduction in Europe retail driven by a run-off of assets
- Trading portfolio assets reduced 48% to GBP15.9bn due to the sale and run-down of legacy portfolio assets
- Derivative financial instrument assets and liabilities increased 19% to GBP285.4bn and 21% to GBP277.1bn respectively, driven by decreases in major forward interest rates
- Total assets decreased 8% to GBP471.5bn with reduced reverse repurchase agreements and other similar secured lending, and trading portfolio assets, due to the run-down of legacy portfolio assets, offset by an increase in derivative financial instrument assets. BCBS 270 leverage exposure reduced to GBP277bn
- RWAs decreased GBP34.6bn to GBP75.3bn and period end allocated equity decreased GBP5.1bn to GBP11.0bn, reflecting the disposal of businesses, run-down and exit of securities and loans, and derivative risk reductions
Q414 compared to Q314
- Total income net of insurance claims reduced 94% to GBP22m
- Businesses income reduced 30% to GBP228m primarily driven by lower fair value gains and sale proceeds in Q314 as part of the exit strategy
- Securities and Loans income reduced GBP248m to an expense of GBP142m driven by the non-recurrence of a GBP119m gain on the sale of the UAE retail banking portfolio and fair value losses on wholesale loan portfolios
- Derivative income reduced 2% to an expense of GBP64m reflecting increased fair value losses, partially offset by a gain on disposal of commodities assets
- Credit impairment charges improved GBP15m to GBP2m driven by impairment releases as a result of confirmation on Spanish
government subsidies in the renewable energy sector and improved performance in Europe
- Total operating expenses increased GBP11m to GBP544m due to UK bank levy of GBP91m (Q314: GBPnil), partially offset by a reduction in costs to achieve Transform to GBP40m (Q314: GBP130m)
- Loss before tax increased GBP375m to GBP532m

Returns and equity by business
Returns on average equity and average tangible equity are calculated as profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent (adjusted for the tax credit recorded in reserves in respect of coupons on other equity instruments) divided by average allocated equity or average allocated tangible equity for the period as appropriate, excluding non-controlling and other equity interests for businesses, apart from Africa Banking (see below). Allocated equity has been calculated as 10.5% of CRD IV fully loaded risk weighted assets for each business, adjusted for CRD IV fully loaded capital deductions, including goodwill and intangible assets, reflecting the assumptions the Group uses for capital planning purposes. The excess of allocated Group equity, caused by the fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio being below 10.5% on average in the period, is allocated as negative equity to Head Office. Allocated tangible equity is calculated using the same method, but excludes goodwill and intangible assets.
For Africa Banking, the equity used for return on average equity is Barclays' share of the statutory equity of the BAGL entity (together with that of the Barclays Egypt and Zimbabwe businesses which remain outside the BAGL corporate entity), as well as the Barclays' goodwill on acquisition of these businesses. The tangible equity for return on tangible equity uses the same basis, but excludes both the Barclays' goodwill on acquisition and the goodwill and intangibles held within the BAGL statutory equity.

-- Total PCB, Barclaycard and Africa Banking net interest income increased 4% to GBP11.4bn due to:
- An increase in average customer assets to GBP280.0bn (2013: GBP272.6bn) with growth in PCB mortgages and Barclaycard, partially offset by reductions in Africa Banking as the ZAR depreciated against GBP
- Net interest margin increased 6bps to 4.08% primarily due to higher savings margins in PCB and in Africa following the rise in the South African benchmark interest rate and the favourable impact of higher deposit margins. This was partially offset by a decrease in Barclaycard due to the impact of promotional offers and a change in product mix
-- Group net interest income increased to GBP12.1bn (2013: GBP11.6bn) including structural hedge contributions of GBP1.6bn (2013: GBP1.6bn). Equity structural hedge income increased as the weighted average life of the hedge was extended. This was offset by lower product structural hedges driven by the maintenance of the hedge in a continuing low rate environment

Remuneration
Deferred bonuses are payable only once an employee meets certain conditions, including a specified period of service. This creates a timing difference between the communication of the bonus pool and the charges that appear in the income statement which are reconciled in the table below to show the charge for performance costs.

Funding Risk - Liquidity
Whilst Barclays has a comprehensive framework for managing the Group's liquidity risks, liquidity risk is managed separately at Barclays Africa Group Limited (BAGL) due to local currency and funding requirements. Unless stated otherwise, all disclosures in this section exclude BAGL and they are reported on a stand-alone basis. Adjusting for local requirements, BAGL liquidity risk is managed on a consistent basis to Barclays Group.
Liquidity stress testing
Barclays manages the Group's liquidity position against the Group's internally defined Liquidity Risk Appetite (LRA) and regulatory metrics, such as the Individual Liquidity Guidance (ILG) provided by the PRA, and the CRD IV Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR). As at 31 December 2014, the Group held eligible liquid assets in excess of 100% of net stress outflows for both the 30 day Barclays-specific LRA and the LCR.

1 Of the three stress scenarios monitored as part of the LRA, the 30 day Barclays specific scenario results in the lowest ratio at 124% (2013: 104%). This compares to 135% (2013: 127%) under the 90 day market-wide scenario and 127% (2013: 112%) under the 30 day combined scenario.
During the period, the Group strengthened its liquidity position, building a larger surplus to its internal and regulatory stress requirements which position it well for potential rating changes as credit rating agencies assess sovereign support in Barclays Bank PLC's credit ratings.
Barclays plans to maintain its surplus to the internal and regulatory stress requirements at an efficient level, whilst considering risks to market funding conditions and its liquidity position. The continuous reassessment of these risks may lead to appropriate actions being taken with respect to sizing of the liquidity pool.
Barclays estimated its Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) at 102% (2013: 94%) based on the final NSFR guidelines published by the BCBS in October 2014.

The Group liquidity pool was GBP149bn at year end (2013: GBP127bn). During 2014, the month-end liquidity pool ranged from GBP134bn to GBP156bn (2013: GBP127bn to GBP157bn), and the month-end average balance was GBP145bn (2013: GBP144bn). The liquidity pool is held unencumbered and is not used to support payment or clearing requirements.
Barclays manages the liquidity pool on a centralised basis. As at 31 December 2014, 92% (2013: 90%) of the liquidity pool was located in Barclays Bank PLC and was available to meet liquidity needs across the Barclays Group. The residual liquidity pool is held predominantly within Barclays Capital Inc (BCI). The portion of the liquidity pool outside of Barclays Bank PLC is held against entity-specific stressed outflows and regulatory requirements.

1 GBP122bn (2013: GBP104bn) of the liquidity pool is PRA eligible as per BIPRU 12.7. In addition, there are GBP12bn (2013: GBP9bn) of Level 2 assets available, as per PRA's announcement in August 2013 that certain assets specified by PRA as Level 2 assets can be used on a transitional basis.
2 The LCR-eligible assets presented in this table represent only those assets which are also eligible for the Group liquidity pool and do not include any Level 2B assets as defined by CRD IV.

4 Of which over 95% (2013: over 85%) are comprised of UK, US, Japanese, French, German, Danish, Swiss and Dutch securities.
PCB, Barclaycard, Africa Banking and Non-Core (retail) are largely funded by customer deposits. The loan to deposit ratio for these businesses was 89% (2013: 91%). The customer deposits in excess of loans and advances are primarily used to fund liquidity buffer requirements for these businesses. The Investment Bank is funded with wholesale liabilities and does not rely on customer deposit funding from these businesses. The loan to deposit ratio for the Group was broadly unchanged at 100% (2013: 101%).
As at 31 December 2014, GBP128bn (2013: GBP122bn) of total customer deposits were insured through the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme and other similar schemes. In addition to these customer deposits, there were GBP4bn (2013: GBP3bn) of other liabilities insured or guaranteed by governments.
Wholesale funding
Composition of wholesale funding
Total wholesale funding outstanding (excluding repurchase agreements) was GBP171bn (2013: GBP186bn). GBP75bn (2013: GBP82bn) of wholesale funding matures in less than one year of which GBP22bn(2) (2013: GBP23bn) relates to term funding.
Outstanding wholesale funding comprised of GBP33bn (2013: GBP35bn) secured funding and GBP138bn (2013: GBP151bn) unsecured funding.
In preparation for a Single Point of Entry resolution model, Barclays has started to issue debt capital and term senior unsecured funding out of Barclays PLC, the holding company. The Group expects to refinance most debt capital and term senior unsecured debt out of Barclays PLC over time.

Outstanding wholesale funding includes GBP45bn (2013: GBP50bn) of privately placed senior unsecured notes in issue. These notes are issued through a variety of distribution channels including intermediaries and private banks. Although not a requirement, the liquidity pool exceeded wholesale funding maturing in less than one year by GBP74bn (2013: GBP45bn).
The average maturity of wholesale funding net of the liquidity pool was at least 105 months (2013: 69 months).
Term financing
The Group issued GBP15bn (2013: GBP1bn) of term funding net of early redemptions during 2014. In addition, the Group raised GBP6bn through participation in the Bank of England's Funding for Lending Scheme. Barclays has GBP23bn of term funding maturing in 2015 and GBP13bn in 2016(5) .
The Group expects to continue issuing public wholesale debt in 2015, in order to maintain a stable and diverse funding base by type, currency and distribution channel.
1
The composition of wholesale funds comprises the balance sheet reported Deposits from Banks, Financial liabilities at Fair Value, Debt Securities in Issue and Subordinated Liabilities, excluding cash collateral and settlement balances. It does not include collateral swaps, including participation in the Bank of England's Funding for Lending Scheme. Included within deposits from banks are GBP1bn of liabilities drawn in the European Central Bank's 3 year LTRO.
2
Term funding maturities comprise public benchmark and privately placed senior unsecured notes, covered bonds/asset-backed securities (ABS) and subordinated debt where the original maturity of the instrument was more than 1 year.
3
Includes structured notes of GBP35bn, GBP9bn of which matures within one year.
4
Primarily comprised of fair value deposits GBP5bn and secured financing of physical gold GBP5bn.
5
Includes GBP1bn of bilateral secured funding in 2015 and GBP1bn in 2016.
Credit ratings
The credit ratings of most financial institutions, including Barclays, currently benefit from sovereign support notches to reflect the historic propensity for governments to support systemically important banks. As regulation has evolved, credit rating agencies have communicated their intention to remove part or all of this support over time.
In line with this intent, on 3 February 2015, S&P took action to remove government support notches from certain U.K. and Swiss bank non-operating holding companies, including Barclays PLC, the holding company of Barclays. This resulted in a downgrade of Barclays PLC by two notches to BBB/A-2 with stable outlook as they believe that the prospect of extraordinary government support to its senior creditors is now unlikely. S&P also placed the long- and short-term ratings of most UK, German and Austrian bank operating companies, including Barclays Bank PLC (A/A-1) and its subsidiaries and branches, the counterparties for customer and client relationships, on 'CreditWatch with negative implications' as they assess how the legislative bail-in powers may operate for bank operating companies in practice.
Funding Risk - Capital
CRD IV capital
The Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) and Capital Requirements Directive implemented Basel 3 within the EU (collectively known as CRD IV) on 1 January 2014. The rules are supplemented by Regulatory Technical Standards and the PRA's rulebook, including the implementation of transitional rules. However, rules and guidance are still subject to change as certain aspects of CRD IV are dependent on final technical standards and clarifications to be issued by the EBA and adopted by the European Commission and the PRA. All capital, RWA and leverage calculations reflect Barclays' interpretation of the current rules.

1 The CRD IV CET1 ratio (FSA October 2012 transitional statement) as applicable to Barclays' Tier 2 Contingent Capital Notes was 12.3% based on GBP49.6bn of transitional CRD IV CET1 capital and GBP402bn RWAs.
2 The PRA transitional capital is based on guidance provided in policy statement PS 7/13 on strengthening capital standards published in December 2013.
3 As at 31 December 2014, Barclays' fully loaded Tier 1 capital was GBP46,020m, and the fully loaded Tier 1 ratio was 11.5%. Fully loaded total regulatory capital was GBP61,763m and the fully loaded total capital ratio was 15.4%. The fully-loaded Tier 1 capital and total capital measures are calculated without applying the transitional provisions set out in CRD IV and assessing compliance of AT1 and T2 instruments against the relevant criteria in CRD IV.

- The fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio increased significantly during the period to 10.3% (2013: 9.1%) reflecting an increase in CET1 capital of GBP1.1bn to GBP41.5bn, after absorbing GBP3.3bn of adjusting items, and a GBP40.6bn decrease in RWAs to GBP401.9bn. The improvement reflects progress made in execution of the Group strategy and good progress towards the 2016 Transform target in excess of 11%. Including the sale of the Spanish business, completed on 2 January 2015, the fully loaded CRD IV CET1 ratio would have increased to 10.5% as at 31 December 2014
- Material movements in CET1 capital included:
- a GBP1.2bn decrease recognised for dividends paid and foreseen;
- a GBP0.6bn increase due to movements in the currency translation reserve primarily driven by the strengthening of USD against GBP;
- a GBP0.4bn increase due to gains in the available for sale reserve; and
- A GBP0.6bn increase due to lower regulatory adjustments and deductions, with decreased deductions of GBP0.5bn for holdings of own CET1 instruments, GBP0.3bn for expected loss over impairment and GBP0.3bn for PVA, partially offset by a GBP0.5bn increase in the deduction for goodwill and intangibles. The reduction in PVA results principally from the GBP0.9bn adjustment to the balance sheet valuation of the ESHLA portfolio
- Transitional total capital decreased by GBP0.1bn to GBP66.3bn largely due to capital redemptions in the period of EUR1bn non-
cumulative callable preference shares and EUR1bn callable fixed/floating rate subordinated notes (T2 capital). These decreases were offset by the increase in fully loaded CET1 capital and a T2 capital issuance of $1.25bn of fixed rate subordinated notes

3 Foreign exchange movements do not include movements for counterparty credit risk or market risk.
- RWAs decreased GBP40.6bn to GBP401.9bn reflecting the following:
- Book size decreased GBP17.4bn driven by trading book risk reductions within the Investment Bank and Non-Core, partially offset by growth in loans and advances to customers in PCB and Barclaycard
- Acquisitions and disposals decreased GBP14.5bn primarily driven by Non-Core disposals. The sale of the Spanish business, completed on 2 January 2015, would have decreased RWAs by a further GBP5.0bn
- Book quality decreased GBP5.3bn due to improvements in underlying Investment Bank and PCB exposure risk profiles
- Model updates increased GBP11.9bn, primarily driven by the implementation of a revised credit risk model for assessing the probability of counterparty default
- Methodology and policy decreased GBP12.9bn due to regulatory changes in the treatment of high quality liquidity pool assets
- Foreign exchange movements decreased GBP1.5bn due to the depreciation of ZAR and EUR against GBP, partially offset by the appreciation of USD against GBP
Leverage ratio requirements
The leverage exposure below has been prepared in line with the PRA's revised Supervisory Statement SS3/13 which requires the exposure measure to be calculated on a BCBS 270 basis and Barclays to meet a 3% end point Tier 1 leverage ratio.
In January 2014, the Basel Committee finalised its revised standards (BCBS 270) for calculating the Basel 3 leverage ratio. The European Commission is implementing the amendments into the CRR via a delegated act which came into force from January 2015. Barclays does not believe that there is a material difference between the BCBS 270 leverage ratio and a leverage ratio calculated in accordance with the delegated act.
At 31 December 2014 Barclays BCBS 270 leverage ratio was 3.7%, which is in line with the expected minimum fully loaded requirement outlined by the Financial Policy Committee (FPC).

- Leverage exposures during Q414 decreased by GBP91bn to GBP1,233bn:
- Loans and advances and other assets decreased by GBP52bn to GBP713bn primarily due to a seasonal reduction in settlement balances of GBP28bn and a GBP13bn reduction in cash balances
- SFTs decreased GBP35bn to GBP157bn driven by a GBP26bn reduction in IFRS reverse repurchase agreements and GBP9bn in SFT adjustments, reflecting deleveraging in Non-Core and a seasonal reduction in trading volumes
- Total derivative exposures(1) decreased GBP8bn due to a GBP16bn reduction in the potential future exposure (PFE), partially offset by an increase in IFRS derivatives and cash collateral
- PFE on derivatives decreased GBP16bn to GBP179bn mainly due to reductions in business activity and optimisations,
including trade compressions and tear-ups. This was partially offset by an increase relating to sold options driven by a change to the basis of calculation
- Other derivatives exposures increased GBP8bn to GBP92bn driven by an increase in IFRS derivatives of GBP57bn to GBP440bn and cash collateral GBP13bn to GBP73bn. This was broadly offset by increases in allowable derivatives netting

Financial Statement Notes
1 Tax
The 2014 tax charge of GBP1,411m (2013: GBP1,571m), represented an effective tax rate of 62.5% (2013: 54.8%). The effective tax rate was higher than the UK statutory tax rate of 21.5% (2013: 23.25%) mainly due to profits outside of the UK taxed at higher local statutory tax rates, non-creditable taxes and non-deductible expenses, including the provision for ongoing investigations and litigation relating to Foreign Exchange. This was partially offset by the effect of non-taxable gains and income, and deferred tax asset measurement adjustments. Additionally, the 2013 effective tax rate included the write down of the Spanish deferred tax asset.
The deferred tax asset of GBP4,130m (2013: GBP4,807m) mainly relates to amounts in the US and UK.

Equity attributable to non-controlling interests decreased by GBP2,173m to GBP6,391m primarily due to movements in preference shares. GBP1,527m of Barclays Bank PLC preference shares were bought back and cancelled as part of the AT1 exchange exercise. A further GBP687m of preference shares were redeemed on their first call date.

1 The profit after tax attributable to other equity holders of GBP250m (2013: GBPnil) is offset by a tax credit recorded in reserves of GBP54m (2013: GBPnil). The net amount of GBP196m, along with NCI, is deducted from profit after tax in order to calculate earnings per share.
4 Dividends on ordinary shares
A final dividend in respect of 2014 of 3.5p per ordinary share will be paid on 2 April 2015 to shareholders on the Share Register on 11 March 2015 and accounted for as a distribution of retained earnings in the year ending 31 December 2015. The financial statements for 2014 include the following dividends paid during the year.

6 Retirement benefits
As at 31 December 2014, the Group's IAS 19 (Revised) pension deficit across all schemes was GBP1.5bn (2013: GBP1.8bn). The UK Retirement Fund (UKRF), which is the Group's main scheme, had a deficit of GBP1.1bn (2013: GBP1.4bn).
The movement for the UKRF is largely due to an increase in asset values, which was partially offset by an increase in defined benefit obligation. The increase in defined benefit obligation can be linked to a decrease in discount rate to 3.67% (2013: 4.46%), partially offset by a decrease in long term expected inflation to 3.05% (2013: 3.42%).
The triennial funding valuation of the UKRF was completed in 2014 with an effective date of 30 September 2013. The funding deficit at that date was calculated to be GBP3.6bn. Under the agreed recovery plan, deficit contributions of GBP300m will be paid to the fund in 2015 and 2016. Further deficit contributions of GBP740m each year are payable between 2017 and 2021 with up to GBP500m of the 2021 deficit contributions payable in 2017 depending on the deficit level at that time. These deficit contributions are in addition to the regular contributions to meet the Group's share of the cost of benefits accruing over each year.
In non-valuation years the Scheme Actuary prepares an annual update of the funding position. The latest annual update was carried out as at 30 September 2014 and showed a deficit of GBP4.6bn.
The increase in funding deficit over the year to 30 September 2014 can be mainly attributed to the fall in real gilt yields over the year.
7 Called up share capital
Called up share capital comprises 16,498m (2013: 16,113m) ordinary shares of 25p each. The increase was due to the issuance of shares under employee share schemes and the Barclays PLC Scrip Dividend Programme.
8 Other equity instruments
Other Equity Instruments of GBP4,322m (2013: GBP2,063m) include AT1 securities issued by Barclays PLC during 2013 and 2014. During 2013, there were two separate issuances of Fixed Rate Resetting Perpetual Subordinated Contingent Convertible Securities, with principal amounts of $2bn and EUR1bn. In 2014, there were three issuances of Fixed Rate Resetting Perpetual Subordinated Contingent Convertible Securities, with principal amounts of $1.2bn, EUR1.1bn and GBP0.7bn. The 2014 AT1 securities were issued as part of an exchange of GBP1,527m of Barclays Bank PLC preference shares (held as non controlling interests for Barclays PLC) and GBP607m of subordinated debt instruments (Tier 1 Notes and Reserve Capital Instruments).
The exchange exercise involved Barclays PLC issuing AT1 securities to investors in exchange for Barclays Bank PLC preference shares and Barclays Bank PLC subordinated debt instruments held by the same investors. As part of the exercise, Barclays Bank PLC issued three corresponding AT1 instruments to Barclays PLC. Upon completion of the exercise, the preference shares and subordinated debt instruments were cancelled by Barclays Bank PLC.
The AT1 securities are perpetual securities with no fixed maturity and are structured to qualify as AT1 instruments under CRD IV.
9 Other reserves
Other reserves of GBP2,724bn (2013: GBP249bn) mainly consist of the following:
Currency translation reserve
As at 31 December 2014 there was a debit balance of GBP582m (2013: GBP1,142m debit) in the currency translation reserve. The decrease in the debit balance of GBP560m (2013: GBP1,201m debit) principally reflected the strengthening of USD against GBP. The currency translation reserve movement associated with non-controlling interests was a GBP74m debit (2013: GBP566m debit) reflecting the further depreciation of ZAR against GBP.
During the period a GBP91m net gain (2013: GBP5m) from recycling of the currency translation reserve was recognised in the income statement.
Available for sale reserve
As at 31 December 2014 the available for sale reserve was GBP562m (2013: GBP148m). The increase of GBP414m (2013: GBP379m decrease) principally reflected a GBP5,336m gain from changes in fair value on Government Bonds, predominantly held in the liquidity pool, offset by GBP4,074m of losses from related interest rate hedges, GBP620m of net gains transferred to net profit as bonds were disposed and GBP103m of tax.
Cash Flow Hedging Reserve
As at 31 December 2014 there was a credit balance of GBP1,817m (2013: GBP273m credit) in the cash flow hedging reserve. The increase of GBP1,544m (2013: GBP1,826m decrease) principally reflected a GBP2,662m increase in the fair value of interest rate swaps held for hedging purposes as interest rate forward curves decreased, partly offset by GBP737m gains recycled to the income statement in line with when the hedged item affects profit or loss, and GBP381m of tax.
Treasury shares
During the period GBP909m (2013: GBP1,049m) net purchases of treasury shares were made, principally reflecting the increase in shares held for the purposes of employee share schemes, and GBP866m (2013: GBP1,034m) was transferred to retained earnings reflecting the vesting of deferred share based payments.
