Barclays passes the 2019 Bank of England stress test
 
Barclays PLC ("Barclays") notes the publication today of stress test outcomes for UK banks by the Bank of England ("BoE"). Under the BoE's assessment, Barclays passed the stress test with a 8.9% minimum stressed transitional Common Equity Tier 1 ("CET1") ratio after taking account of strategic management actions including CRD IV distribution restrictions. Barclays therefore comfortably exceeded the stress test hurdle rate of 8.1%.  
 
The minimum stressed transitional UK Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3.8%, after taking account of strategic management actions including CRD IV distribution restrictions, also exceeded the 2019 transitional stress test hurdle rate of 3.6%.
 
As a result, Barclays' CET1 ratio target of c.13.5% is not currently expected to change and its capital distribution expectations are not impacted. The CET1 ratio continues to be the binding capital constraint for Barclays.
 
The BoE assesses banks' performance on a transitional basis for IFRS9 but, for transparency purposes, has also published the stress test results on a hypothetical non-transitional basis. Under this assessment, Barclays' minimum stressed non-transitional CET1 ratio was 6.5% and UK Tier 1 leverage ratio was 3.0%, after taking account of strategic management actions including CRD IV distribution restrictions.  The 2019 non-transitional hurdle rates of 7.0% and 3.25%, respectively, are hypothetical and subject to change in future years.
 
With regard to the non-transitional basis, Barclays welcomes the comments made by the BoE in the Financial Stability Report published today (link), which discusses options for an enduring approach to the treatment of IFRS9 in future stress tests and is consistent with the principle stated previously that the interaction of IFRS9 and the stress test should not result in an unwarranted de facto increase in capital requirements. Barclays welcomes the opportunity to share its views on these options with the BoE in 2020.
 
The BoE stress test results for UK banks can be found on the BoE website at https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/stress-testing/2019/bank-of-england-stress-testing-results
