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 business' 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 55-57 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. 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 or guidance regarding or relating to the Group's future financial position, income growth, assets, impairment charges, provisions, business strategy, structural reform, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, payment of dividends (including dividend payout ratios and expected payment strategies), projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs or savings, any commitments and targets and the impact of any regulatory deconsolidation resulting from the sell down of the Group's interest in Barclays Africa Group Limited, estimates of capital expenditures and plans and objectives for future operations, projected employee numbers, IFRS 9 impacts 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 International Financial Reporting Standards including the implementation of IFRS 9, 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 any entities within the Group or any securities issued by such entities; the potential for one or more countries exiting the Eurozone; the implications of the exercise by the United Kingdom of Article 50 of the Treaty of Lisbon and the disruption that may result in the UK and globally from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union 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, expectations and 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 our filings with the SEC (including, without limitation, our annual report on form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2017), which will be available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Subject to our obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of the United Kingdom and the United States 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
Transatlantic Consumer and Wholesale Bank with Global Reach
Significant strategic progress was made in 2017, as profit before tax improved and the CET1 ratio strengthened further, enabling a reset of the dividend in 2018 and enhanced focus
on driving improved returns
• Returns:
|
• Group profit before tax increased 10% to £3.5bn. The attributable loss of £1.9bn (2016: profit of £1.6bn) and Return on Tangible Equity ( RoTE ) of negative 3.6 % (2016: positive 3.6%) included: - litigation and conduct of £ 1.2bn, including charges for Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) of £0.7bn, - losses related to the sell down of Barclays Africa Group Limited (BAGL) of £ 2 . 5 bn , and - a one-off net tax charge of £ 0.9bn due to the re-measurement of US deferred tax assets (DTAs) in Q417 • Group RoTE , excluding the material items listed above, was 5.6 % • Group RoTE target, excluding litigation and conduct, of greater than 9% in 2019 and greater than 10% in 2020, based on a Group Common Equity Tier 1 ( CET1 ) ratio of c.13% |
• Cost efficiency: |
• Group operating expenses were £15. 5 bn (2016: £16.3bn), including litigation and conduct charges of £ 1 . 2 bn (2016: £1. 4 bn), resulting in a cost: income ratio of 7 3 % (2016: 76%) • Excluding litigation and conduct charges, Group operating expenses were £14.2bn, in line with 2017 guidance • Guidance for Group operating expenses of £13.6-13.9bn in 2019, excluding litigation and conduct |
• Capital and dividends: |
• CET1 ratio increased to 13.3% (December 2016: 12.4%), within the end-state target range of c.13% • Improvement driven by organic capital generation from continuing operations, and the benefit of the proportional consolidation of BAGL and the rundown of Non-Core, partially offset by adverse movements in reserves and the net impact of the re-measurement of US DTAs • Declared dividend of 3.0p per share for 2017 and the intention to pay 6.5p in 2018 |
• |
Group profit before tax increased 10% to £3,541m driven by positive operating jaws as operating expenses reduced 5%, primarily reflecting lower Non-Core related costs. Income decreased 2%, primarily driven by lower revenue in Barclays International and Head Office, whilst impairment was broadly stable |
|
|
- |
Barclays UK profit before tax increased to £1,747m (2016: £1,738m) reflecting 2% lower income, a 13% reduction in impairment and a cost: income ratio of 66% (2016: 65%), including charges for PPI of £700m (2016: £1,000m) |
|
- |
Barclays International profit before tax declined to £3,275m (2016: £4,211m) driven by a 4% decrease in income, largely as a result of weak market conditions impacting the Corporate and Investment Bank (CIB) in H217, while operating expenses increased 4% and credit impairment charges increased 11% |
• |
Group attributable loss of £1,922m (2016: profit of £1,623m) included losses of £2,525m related to the sell down of BAGL and the one-off net tax charge of £901m due to the re-measurement of US DTAs |
|
• |
Group basic loss per share was 10.3p (2016: earnings per share of 10.4p) . Excluding litigation and conduct, losses related to the sell down of BAGL and the net charge due to the re-measurement of US DTAs, earnings per share was 16.2p |
|
• |
Tangible net asset value per share decreased to 276p (December 2016: 290p) as profit before tax was more than offset by the net impact of the re-measurement of US DTAs in Q417 and adverse movements across reserves |

Group Chief Executive Officer's Review
"2017 was a year of considerable strategic progress for Barclays. The sell down of our shareholding in Barclays Africa, closure of our Non-Core unit, the establishment of our Service Company, and the creation of our UK ring-fenced bank, mean that, in terms of size and structure, we are now the diversified Transatlantic Consumer and Wholesale bank we set out in our strategy in March 2016.
We have a portfolio of profitable businesses, producing significant earnings, and have plans and investments in place to grow those earnings over time.
We have already started to see some of the benefits of our work in 2017. Group profit before tax increased 10% year-on-year as a result of our team's focus on execution. Barclays UK navigated the year well, reaching a digital banking milestone with our ten millionth customer. Within Barclays International, we increased Banking fee share in our Corporate and Investment Bank in 2017, and our Consumer, Cards and Payments business continued to produce very strong income while managing risk effectively.
Although we are only seven weeks into the first quarter, and it is too early to offer formal guidance, we are pleased with the start to the year, and in particular in the markets businesses in CIB, where income is tracking above the level for the corresponding period in 2017 in dollars, and also in sterling, despite the weaker dollar we are currently experiencing.
Critically, as we have carried out the work to reshape the business, we have continued to generate capital organically. Our CET1 ratio today stands at 13.3%, comfortably within our end-state target range.
While we still have a number of legacy conduct issues to address, I am confident in the capacity of this business to generate excess capital going forward, and it remains our intention over time to return a greater proportion of that excess capital to shareholders through dividends, and other means of capital distribution, including share buybacks.
As a first demonstration of that intent, we are pleased to be able to announce today the restoration of the dividend to six and a half pence for 2018."
James E Staley, Group Chief Executive Officer
Group Finance Director's Review
Financial performance in 2017 was encouraging, with increased profit before tax, a reduced cost: income ratio and strong capital ratio progression. Significant progress was also made on strategic objectives in the year, with the closure of Barclays Non-Core and the sale of a stake in, and consequent accounting deconsolidation of, BAGL. New Group returns targets were set: to achieve RoTE of greater than 9% in 2019 and greater than 10% in 2020, excluding litigation and conduct, based on a CET1 ratio of c.13%. The 2017 financial results provide a firm platform on which to build towards these.
Following the closure of Barclays Non-Core on 1 July 2017, Group results for 2017 included a Barclays Non-Core loss before tax for the six months ended 30 June 2017 of £647m, compared to a loss before tax of £2,786m for the full year in 2016. From 1 July 2017, residual Barclays Non-Core assets and liabilities were reintegrated into, and associated financial performance subsequently reported in, Barclays UK, Barclays International and Head Office.
Group performance
• |
Profit before tax increased 10% to £3,541m driven by a 5% reduction in operating expenses, partially offset by a 2% reduction in income and lower other net income. Results were impacted by the appreciation of average USD and EUR against GBP of 5% and 7% respectively, compared to 2016, which positively impacted income and adversely affected impairment and operating expenses |
• |
Total income decreased to £21,076m (2016: £21,451m) reflecting a £613m decrease in Barclays International and a £262m reduction in Head Office, partially offset by a reduction in losses related to Non-Core |
• |
Credit impairment charges were broadly stable at £2,336m (2016: £2,373m) and reflected a charge of £168m in 2017 relating to deferred consideration from an asset sale in US Cards and the non-recurrence of a £320m charge in 2016 following the management review of the UK and US cards portfolio impairment modelling. Impairment increased in Barclays International driven by an increase in underlying delinquency trends and business growth in US Cards. The Group loan loss rate increased 4bps to 57bps |
• |
Operating expenses reduced 5% to £15,456m driven primarily by lower Non-Core related operating expenses. The cost: income ratio reduced to 73% (2016: 76%) |
• |
Other net income of £257m (2016: £490m) primarily reflected a gain of £109m on the sale of Barclays' share in VocaLink to MasterCard and a gain of £76m on the sale of a joint venture in Japan |
• |
Profit after tax in respect of continuing operations was £1,301m (2016: £2,237m). The tax charge of £2,240m included a one-off tax charge of £1,177m due to the re-measurement of US DTAs as a result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, partially offset by an unrelated £276m increase in US DTAs due to a re-measurement of Barclays Bank PLC's (BBPLC) US branch DTAs |
• |
Loss after tax in respect of the Africa Banking discontinued operation of £2,195m included a £1,090m impairment of Barclays' holding in BAGL and a £1,435m loss on the sale of 33.7% of BAGL's issued share capital, primarily due to recycling of currency translation reserve losses to the income statement on accounting deconsolidation |
• |
RoTE was negative 3.6% (2016: positive 3.6%) and basic loss per share was 10.3p (2016: earnings per share of 10.4p). Excluding litigation and conduct, losses related to the sell down of BAGL and the one-off net charge due to the re-measurement of US DTAs, RoTE was 5.6% and earnings per share was 16.2p |
• |
Refer to pages 8-14 for further detail on Results by Business |
Group capital and leverage
• |
The fully loaded CET1 ratio increased to 13.3% (December 2016: 12.4%) principally due to a reduction in risk weighted assets (RWAs) of £52.6bn to £313.0bn. CET1 capital decreased £3.6bn to £41.6bn |
|
|
- |
The sell down of Barclays' holding in BAGL to 14.9%, resulting in regulatory proportional consolidation, increased the CET1 ratio by c.60bps with a £31.1bn reduction in RWAs, offset by a £1.8bn reduction due to BAGL minority interests no longer being included in CET1 capital |
|
- |
Losses in respect of the discontinued operation due to the impairment of Barclays' holding in BAGL allocated to goodwill, and the recycling of the BAGL currency translation reserve losses to the income statement, had no impact on CET1 |
|
- |
The CET1 ratio increased by a further c.50bps as a result of other RWA reductions, excluding the impact of foreign currency movements, including reductions in Non-Core |
|
- |
Excluding the impacts of BAGL and foreign currency movements, CET1 capital decreased further, as profits relating to continuing operations, after absorbing the net impact of the re-measurement of US DTAs, were offset by the redemption of USD preference shares and the payment of pension deficit reduction contributions in the year |
• |
The average UK leverage ratio increased to 4.9% (December 2016: 4.5%) primarily driven by the issuance of additional tier 1 (AT1) securities, the reduction in Non-Core related exposures and due to regulatory proportional consolidation of BAGL |
|
• |
Tangible net asset value per share decreased to 276p (December 2016: 290p) as profit before tax was more than offset by the net impact of the re-measurement of US DTAs in Q417 and adverse movements across reserves |
Group funding and liquidity
• |
The Group continued to maintain surpluses to its internal and regulatory requirements. The liquidity pool increased to £220bn (December 2016: £165bn) reflecting the approach of holding a conservative liquidity position and through net deposit growth, the unwind of legacy Non-Core portfolios, money market borrowing and drawdown from the Bank of England Term Funding Scheme. The liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) increased to 154% (December 2016: 131%), equivalent to a surplus of £75bn (December 2016: £39bn) to 100% |
• |
Wholesale funding outstanding excluding repurchase agreements was £157bn (December 2016: £158bn). The Group issued £11.5bn equivalent of capital and term senior unsecured debt from Barclays PLC (the Parent company) of which £6.1bn was in public senior unsecured debt and £5.4bn in capital instruments. In the same period, £6.1bn of BBPLC capital and senior public term instruments either matured or were redeemed, including the $1.375bn 7.1% Series 3 USD preference shares |
Other matters
• |
On 1 June 2017, Barclays sold 286 million ordinary shares of BAGL, representing 33.7% of BAGL's issued share capital. The sale resulted in the accounting deconsolidation of BAGL from the Barclays Group. Following the sale, BAGL was no longer reported as a discontinued operation, with the retained investment accounted for as an Available for Sale (AFS) asset in Barclays' financial statements. The contribution of a further 1.5% of BAGL's ordinary shares to a Black Economic Empowerment scheme in Q317 resulted in Barclays accounting for 126 million ordinary shares in BAGL, representing 14.9% of BAGL's issued share capital. For regulatory reporting purposes, BAGL is treated on a proportional consolidated basis |
• |
Barclays' measurement of its US DTAs reduced £0.9bn in Q417, as a £1.2bn decrease as result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted on 22 December 2017, was partially offset by an unrelated £0.3bn increase due to a re-measurement of BBPLC's US branch DTAs, as a result of BBPLC making a tax election in the period to exclude the future profits and losses of its overseas branches from UK taxation. The net reduction in the measurement of US DTAs resulted in a one-off net charge of £0.9bn to Group profit after tax, a c.20bps reduction to the Group CET1 ratio and a decrease in tangible net asset value of 5p per share |
• |
Additional charges of £700m (2016: £1,000m) relating to PPI were recognised in Q217. The remaining PPI provision as at 31 December 2017 was £1.6bn (December 2016: £2.0bn). Management views its current PPI provision as appropriate, however, will continue to closely monitor complaint trends and the associated provision adequacy |
• |
A provision of £240m in respect of Foreign Exchange matters was recognised in Q417 |
• |
In June 2017, the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) brought certain charges against Barclays PLC in relation to matters that arose in the context of Barclays' capital raisings in 2008. Further to that development, in February 2018, the SFO has also charged BBPLC in respect of this matter |
• |
Certain legal proceedings and investigations relating to legacy issues remain outstanding. Resolving outstanding legacy issues in an appropriate timeframe and manner will continue to be a priority |
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments1
• |
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments is effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Barclays' estimated IFRS 9 impact is a decrease in shareholders' equity of approximately £2.2bn post-tax. The estimated reduction in shareholders' equity equates to a decrease in tangible net asset value of approximately 13p per share |
• |
The Group's CET1 ratio will be impacted by IFRS 9 primarily from an increase in credit impairment provisions net of tax, offset by a reduction in the regulatory deduction where expected loss is greater than impairment |
• |
As at 1 January 2018, the expected fully loaded CET1 ratio impact without transitional arrangements would be an estimated reduction of approximately 34bps. The Group intends to use transitional arrangements, under which the impact is negligible as at 1 January 2018 and is expected to remain immaterial during 2018 |
1 |
Note: |
|
|
- |
The estimated decrease in shareholders' equity includes the impact of both balance sheet classification and measurement changes, and the increase to credit impairment provisions compared to those at 31 December 2017 under IAS 39. |
|
- |
This impact assessment has been estimated under an interim control environment with models that continue to undergo validation. The implementation of the comprehensive end state control environment will continue as Barclays introduces business-as-usual controls throughout 2018. |
Structural reform
• |
Barclays' plans for UK ring-fencing remain on track. The relevant court processes began in November 2017 with the Sanction Hearing to be held on 26 and 27 February 2018 at which the Court will be requested to sanction Barclays' ring-fencing transfer scheme. We intend to complete the reorganisation and establish the UK ring-fenced bank in April 2018, ahead of the 1 January 2019 legislative deadline for implementation |
• |
Barclays Services Limited (the "Group Service Company") was established in September 2017 as a direct subsidiary of Barclays PLC to deliver operational continuity and to drive operational efficiencies across the Group |
• |
Illustrative, unaudited pro-forma financials for Barclays Bank UK PLC (BBUKPLC) and BBPLC will be available at home.barclays/annualreport |
Dividends
• |
A final dividend for 2017 of 2.0p per share will be paid on 5 April 2018, resulting in a total 3.0p dividend per share for the year |
• |
Barclays understands the importance of the ordinary dividend for our shareholders. Barclays is therefore committed to maintaining an appropriate balance between total cash returns to shareholders, investment in the business and maintaining a strong capital position. Going forward, Barclays intends to pay an annual ordinary dividend that takes into account these objectives and the medium-term earnings outlook of the Group. It is also the Board's intention to supplement the ordinary dividends with additional returns to shareholders as and when appropriate |
• |
For 2018, Barclays anticipates resuming a total cash dividend of 6.5p per share, subject to regulatory approvals |
Outlook and financial targets
• |
The Group is targeting RoTE, excluding litigation and conduct, of greater than 9% in 2019 and greater than 10% in 2020, based on a Group CET1 ratio of c.13% |
• |
Guidance for Group operating expenses, excluding litigation and conduct, is £13.6-13.9bn in 2019 |

As part of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the US federal corporate income tax rate has been reduced from 35% to 21% with effect from 1 January 2018. Given the Group's substantial US operations, this is expected to result in a reduction of the Group's effective tax rate in 2018 and future periods to mid-20 percent. Some of the provisions introduced into US tax law by the Act are complex and present uncertainties, in particular the new US Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT). Our current expectation is that in the event that BEAT liabilities are incurred by the Group these should not be sufficiently material to cause the Group's effective tax rate to exceed mid-20 percent |

2017 compared to 2016
Income statement
•
|
Profit before tax increased 1% to £1,747m as lower PPI charges of £700m (2016: £1,000m) and a reduction in credit impairment charges were partially offset by the non-recurrence of the gain on disposal of Barclays' share of Visa Europe Limited in 2016, higher costs of setting up the ring-fenced bank and increased investment, primarily in cyber resilience, digital and technology |
||
• |
Total income decreased 2% to £7,383m, of which £151m reflected the non-recurrence of the gain on disposal of Barclays' share of Visa Europe Limited in 2016 |
||
|
- |
Personal Banking income decreased 2% to £3,823m driven by the non-recurrence of the Visa gain and the impact of the UK base rate reduction in 2016, partially offset by deposit pricing initiatives, growth in balances and an update to effective interest rate (EIR) modelling |
|
|
- |
Barclaycard Consumer UK income decreased 2% to £1,977m reflecting a provision for remediation in H217 |
|
|
- |
Wealth, Entrepreneurs & Business Banking (WEBB) income decreased 1% to £1,583m driven by the non-recurrence of the Visa gain, partially offset by growth in balances |
|
|

|
|
|
- |
Net interest margin decreased 13bps to 3.49% reflecting the integration of the Education, Social Housing and Local Authority (ESHLA) portfolio from Non-Core on 1 July 2017 |
|
- |
Net fee, commission and other income decreased 12% to £1,297m driven by the non-recurrence of the Visa gain |
|
• |
Credit impairment charges decreased 13% to £783m principally reflecting the non-recurrence of a £200m charge in 2016 following the management review of the cards portfolio impairment modelling, partially offset by higher charges in Barclaycard Consumer UK and Personal Banking |
||
• |
Operating expenses decreased 1% to £4,848m due to lower charges for PPI of £700m (2016: £1,000m), partially offset by the costs of setting up the ring-fenced bank and increased investment, primarily in cyber resilience, digital and technology. The cost: income ratio was 66% (2016: 65%) |
Balance sheet
• |
Loans and advances to customers increased 10% to £183.8bn and total assets increased 13% to £237.4bn, reflecting the integration of the ESHLA portfolio from Non-Core into WEBB on 1 July 2017 and mortgage growth in Personal Banking in H217 |
• |
Customer deposits increased 2% to £193.4bn due to deposit growth, partially offset by the realignment of certain clients between Barclays UK and Barclays International in preparation for structural reform |
• |

2017 compared to 2016
Income statement
• |
Loss before tax was £834m (2016: profit of £67m) |
• |
Total income reduced to an expense of £159m (2016: income of £103m) primarily due to lower net income from treasury operations |
• |
Operating expenses increased to £469m (2016: £164m) due to costs associated with Non-Core assets and businesses, which were integrated on 1 July 2017, and increased litigation and conduct costs, including a settlement to resolve the civil action brought by the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's Office of Enforcement and provisions for other legacy redress |
• |
Other net expenses were £189m (2016: income of £128m) driven by an expense of £180m on the recycling of the currency translation reserve to the income statement on the sale of Barclays Bank Egypt. 2016 included a gain due to recycling of the currency translation reserve on disposal of the Southern European cards business |
Balance sheet
• |
Total assets decreased to £39.7bn (December 2016: £75.2bn) primarily due to the accounting deconsolidation of BAGL, which accounted for £65bn of total assets on deconsolidation from the Barclays Group. This was partially offset by the integration of Non-Core assets on 1 July 2017, of which c.£9bn related to Italian mortgages |
• |
RWAs decreased to £31.8bn (December 2016: £53.3bn) reflecting a £31.1bn reduction as a result of the proportional consolidation of BAGL, partially offset by the integration of Non-Core assets |

Discontinued Operation Results
On 1 March 2016, Barclays announced its intention to reduce the Group's 62.3% interest in BAGL to a level which would permit Barclays to deconsolidate BAGL from a regulatory perspective and, prior to that, from an accounting perspective. From this date, BAGL was treated as a discontinued operation. On 5 May 2016, Barclays sold 12.2% of the Group's interest in BAGL and on 1 June 2017 Barclays sold a further 33.7% of BAGL's issued share capital, resulting in the accounting deconsolidation of BAGL from the Barclays Group. At this time, Barclays' holding in BAGL technically met the requirements to be treated as an Associate. However, following a revision of its governance rights in July 2017 and the difference being immaterial, the holding was treated as an AFS asset from the transaction date.
In Q317 Barclays contributed 1.5% of BAGL's ordinary shares to a Black Economic Empowerment scheme, resulting in Barclays accounting for 126 million ordinary shares in BAGL, representing 14.9% of BAGL's issued share capital. The retained investment is reported as an AFS asset in the Head Office segment, with Barclays' share of BAGL's dividend recognised in the Head Office income statement.
For regulatory reporting purposes, BAGL is treated on a proportional consolidated basis based on a holding of 14.9% as at Q417. Subject to regulatory approval, Barclays expects to fully deconsolidate BAGL from a regulatory perspective by the end of 2018.

Total Barclays UK and Barclays International net interest income in creased 1 % to £ 10.4bn due to an increase in average customer assets to £278.5bn (2016: £274.6bn) with growth in Barclays UK partially offset by a reduction in Barclays International.
Net interest margin decreased 2bps to 3.74% primarily reflecting the integration of ESHLA loans from Non-Core on 1 July 2017 into Barclays UK, partially offset by broadly stable net interest income in Barclays International, despite reducing average customer assets. Group net interest income decreased to £9.8bn (2016: £10.5bn) including net structural hedge contributions of £1.3bn (2016: £1.5bn).
Net interest margin by business reflects movements in the Group's internal funding rates which are based on the cost to the Group of alternative funding in wholesale markets. The internal funding rate prices intra-group funding and liquidity to appropriately give credit to businesses with net surplus liquidity and to charge those businesses in need of alternative funding at a rate that is driven by prevailing market rates and includes a term premium.

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 are recognised in the income statement which are reconciled in the table below to show the charge for performance costs. In 2016, there was a change in the proportion of bonuses which were deferred, to harmonise deferral structures across the Group, and amendments to the deferred bonuses, which accelerated the rate at which these are charged in the income statement, as illustrated on page 24. The combined effect of these changes was to increase the charge for 2016 by £395m, with lesser effects in 2017 and 2018. The changes were designed to more closely align the incentive awards granted with the income statement charge. Refer to the Remuneration Report on pages 93-116 of the Annual Report 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 firm are defined in the Enterprise Risk Management Framework. The purpose of the framework is to identify the principal risks of the firm, the process by which the firm sets its appetite for these risks in its business activities, and the consequent limits which it places on related risk taking. The framework identifies eight principal risks: Credit Risk; Market Risk; Treasury and Capital Risk; Operational Risk; Conduct Risk; Reputation Risk; Model Risk; and Legal Risk. Further detail on these risks and how they are managed is available in the 2017 Annual Report or online at: home.barclays/annualreport.
The following section gives an overview of Credit Risk and Treasury and Capital Risk for the period.

Barclays Non-Core represents charges for the six months ended 30 June 2017, primarily relating to Italian mortgages transferred into Head Office on 1 July 2017. |
Total loans and advances decreased £34.1bn to £415.4bn, including a £12.7bn decrease in net settlements and cash collateral and a £21.4bn decrease in other lending, primarily in Barclays International.
Credit risk loans (CRL) decreased to £6.0bn (December 2016: £6.5bn) and the ratio of CRLs to gross loans and advances remained stable at 1.5% (December 2016: 1.5%). Loan impairment charges decreased £19m to £2,333m. Overall, this resulted in a 4bps increase in the loan loss rate to 57bps.
Analysis of specific portfolios and asset types
This section provides an analysis of principal portfolios and businesses in the retail and wholesale segments. In particular, home loans, credit cards, overdrafts and unsecured loans are covered for retail segments.

Portfolio performance remained steady reflecting the continuing low base rate environment and stable economic conditions. The non-performing proportion of outstanding balances decreased due to improved performance and a reduction in repossession stock. The recovery book impairment coverage ratio increased driven by a reduction in the number of customers entering recoveries, reflecting lower entries into collections and better customer payment rates from those in collections.
Within the UK home loans portfolio:
• |
owner-occupied interest-only home loans comprised 28% (December 2016: 31%) of total balances. The decrease was driven by a greater attrition rate compared to new business flow. The average balance weighted LTV on these loans reduced to 39.7% (December 2016: 41.7%), primarily driven by increases in the house price index across core regions, while the 90 day arrears rate excluding the recovery book remained steady at 0.3% (December 2016: 0.2%) |
• |
buy-to-let home loans comprised 11% (December 2016: 9%) of total balances. The average balance weighted LTV increased to 53.7% (December 2016: 52.6%), and the 90 day arrears rate excluding recovery book remained steady at 0.1% (December 2016: 0.1%) |
Italian home loans of £9.2bn (December 2016: £10.0bn) are secured on residential property with an average balance weighted marked to market LTV of 61.0% (December 2016: 61.8%) and CRL coverage of 41% (December 2016: 36%). 90 day arrears and gross charge-off rates remained stable at 1.4% (December 2016: 1.2%) and 0.8% (December 2016: 0.8%) respectively, while the CRL book coverage ratio increased due to an update in the collateral valuation for accounts in the recovery book.
Credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending
The principal portfolios list ed below accounted f or 87 % (December 2016: 88%) of t he Group's total credit cards, unsecured loans and other retail lending.

For UK and US cards, outstanding recovery book balances for acquired portfolios recognised at fair value (which have no related impairment allowance) have been excluded from the recovery book impairment coverage ratio. Losses have been recognised where related to additional spend from acquired accounts in the period post-acquisition. |
UK cards : The annualised gross charge-off rate, which was higher in 2016 due to accelerated asset sales, normalised in 2017 to 5.0% (2016: 5.5%) and was in line with expectations. The recovery book proportion of outstanding balances increased reflecting accelerated charge-off of non-compliant forbearance plans. However, the recovery book impairment coverage ratio decreased, reflecting the one-time debt sale impact of accounts with lower recovery expectations.
UK personal loans : The 30 day arrears rate increased to 2.5% (December 2016: 2.1%) and the 90 day arrears rate increased to 1.2% (December 2016: 0.9%) reflecting increased flow into delinquency from 2016 bookings due to higher incidences of fraud and poorer performance in customers with multiple loans, coupled with a weaker performance in collections operations. Both the recovery book proportion of outstanding balances ratio of 4.7% (December 2016: 4.7%) and the recovery book impairment coverage ratio of 77.2% (December 2016: 77.2%) remained stable.
US cards : The annualised gross charge-off rate increased to 5.0% (December 2016: 4.5%) broadly in line with trends across the industry and also reflecting a one-off asset sale contributing to a reduction in outstanding balances. As a result, recovery as a proportion of total outstanding balances increased to 2.8% (December 2016: 2.4%).
Barclays Partner Finance : Portfolio arrears and the annualised gross charge-off rates remained broadly stable during 2017.
Germany cards : 90 day arrears and the annualised gross charge-off rates remained stable, while the recovery book coverage ratio improved reflecting better recoveries. In addition, Germany consumer loan balances increased to £1.4bn (December 2016: £1.2bn).
Treasury and Capital Risk
The Group has a comprehensive Key Risk Control Framework for managing the Group's liquidity risk. The Liquidity Framework meets the Prudential Regulation Authority's (PRA) standards and is designed to maintain that the Group has liquidity resources that are sufficient in amount and quality, and a funding profile that is appropriate to meet the liquidity risk appetite (LRA). The Liquidity Framework is delivered via a combination of policy formation, review and governance, analysis, stress testing, limit setting and monitoring.
Liquidity risk stress testing
As at 31 December 2017, the Group held eligible liquid assets well in excess of 100% of net stress outflows for both the 30 day combined market-wide and Barclays specific LRA scenario, and the LCR. During the year, the combined LRA scenario has been enhanced and improved to capture a Barclays specific stress coinciding with a market stress over the full stress horizon.

31 December 2016 reflected the Barclays specific scenario ratio of 120%, being the lowest ratio of the three scenarios. LCR and LRA included BAGL in 2016. |
The Group plans to maintain its surplus to the internal and regulatory stress requirements at an efficient level, while 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.

The Group liquidity pool was £220bn as at 31 December 2017 (December 2016: £165bn). During 2017, the month end liquidity pool ranged from £165bn to £232bn (December 2016: £132bn to £175bn), and the month end average balance was £202bn (December 2016: £153bn). 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 2017, 93% (December 2016: 91%) of the liquidity pool was located in BBPLC and was available to meet liquidity needs across the Barclays Group. The residual liquidity pool is held predominantly within Barclays Capital Inc., a subsidiary of BBPLC. The portion of the liquidity pool outside of BBPLC is held against entity-specific stressed outflows and regulatory requirements. To the extent that the use of this portion of the liquidity pool is restricted due to regulatory requirements, it is assumed to be unavailable to the rest of the Group.

Retail and corporate loans and advances are largely funded by customer deposits. As at 31 December 2017, the loan: deposit ratio for these businesses was 80% (December 2016: 89%). The customer deposits in excess of loans and advances are primarily used to fund liquidity buffer requirements for these businesses. The loan: deposit ratio for the Group was 85% (December 2016: 93%).
As at 31 December 2017, £153bn (December 2016: £139bn) 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 £4bn (December 2016: £4bn) of other liabilities insured or guaranteed by governments.
Wholesale funding
Composition of w holesale f unding 1
The Group's total wholesale funding outstanding (excluding repurchase agreements) was £157.4bn (December 2016: £157.8bn). Wholesale funding of £57.2bn (December 2016: £70.3bn) matures in less than one year, of which £13.8bn (December 2016: £21.5bn) relates to term funding.
As at 31 December 2017, outstanding wholesale funding comprised of £20.4bn (December 2016: £25.8bn) secured funding and £137.0bn (December 2016: £132.0bn) unsecured funding .
In 2017, the Group issued £11.5bn equivalent of capital and senior unsecured term debt from Barclays PLC (the Parent company) of which £6.1bn was in public senior unsecured debt and £5.4bn in capital instruments. In the same period, £ 6.1 bn of BBPLC capital and senior public term instruments either matured or were redeemed, including the $1.375bn 7.1% Series 3 USD preference share s.
The Group expects to continue to issue public wholesale debt in 2018 from Barclays PLC (the Parent company), in order to maintain compliance with indicative MREL requirements and maintain a stable and diverse funding base by type, currency and market.

Minimum r equirement for o wn f unds and e ligible l iabilities (MREL)
Under the Bank of England's statement of policy on MREL, the Bank of England will set MREL for UK Global Systemically Important Banks (G-SIBs) as necessary to implement the total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) standard. Institution or group-specific MREL requirements will depend on the preferred resolution strategy for that institution or group.
The MREL requirements will be phased in from 1 January 2019 and will be fully implemented by 1 January 2022, at which time G-SIBs with resolution entities incorporated in the UK, including Barclays, will be required to meet an MREL equivalent to the higher of either: (i) two times the sum of its Pillar 1 and Pillar 2A requirements; or (ii) the higher of two times its leverage ratio, or 6.75% of leverage exposures. However, the PRA will review the MREL calibration by the end of 2020, including assessing the proposal for Pillar 2A recapitalisation which may drive a different 1 January 2022 MREL requirement than currently proposed. In addition, it is proposed that CET1 capital cannot be counted towards both MREL and the combined buffer requirement (CBR), meaning that the CBR will effectively be applied above both the Pillar 1 and Pillar 2A requirements relating to own funds and MREL.
Barclays' indicative MREL requirement is currently expected to be 29.1% of RWAs from 1 January 2022 consisting of the following components:
• |
Loss absorption and recapitalisation amounts consisting of 8% Pillar 1 and 4.3% Pillar 2A buffers, respectively; |
• |
Regulatory buffers including a 1.5% Global Systemically Important Institution (G-SII) buffer, 2.5% Capital Conservation Buffer (CCB) and 0.5% from the planned introduction of a 1% Countercyclical Capital Buffer (CCyB) for the UK1 |

Credit ratings
In addition to monitoring and managing key metrics related to the financial strength of the Group, Barclays also solicits independent credit ratings from Standard & Poor's Global (S&P), Moody's, Fitch, and Rating and Investment Information (R&I). These ratings assess the creditworthiness of the Group, its subsidiaries and its branches, and are based on reviews of a broad range of business and financial attributes including capital strength, profitability, funding, liquidity, asset quality, strategy and governance.

All credit rating agencies took rating actions during the year to assign initial ratings to BBUKPLC in anticipation of the establishment of this entity as the UK ring-fenced bank in April 2018. There were also rating actions on the existing entities of BBPLC and Barclays PLC by some of the credit rating agencies as detailed below.
In September 2017, Fitch assigned an expected rating to BBUKPLC of A+, reflecting a one notch uplift from the expected stand-alone rating of A. This is due to the sufficient amount of junior debt they expect to be outstanding in BBUKPLC, referred to as qualifying junior debt (QJD). In the same rating action, Fitch revised the outlook of BBPLC from stable to rating watch positive in anticipation of assigning QJD uplift of one notch during 2018.
In October 2017, S&P upgraded long and short-term ratings of BBPLC by one notch to A/A-1 from A-/A-2 as S&P finalised their view of the status of BBPLC. They determined that BBPLC would remain core to the Group revising their previous expectation of a highly strategic status. Simultaneously, BBUKPLC was assigned a preliminary rating of A in anticipation that it too would be core to the Group. In November 2017, S&P also revised their view of UK economic risk for the UK banking sector, which led to outlooks for Barclays PLC, BBPLC and BBUKPLC being revised from negative to stable.
Moody's assigned a provisional rating to BBUKPLC in October 2017 of (P)A1. The negative outlooks for Barclays PLC and BBPLC have remained in place since the outcome of the EU referendum in June 2016. Since October 2017, the implementation of ring-fencing has been included in the rationale for the maintenance of BBPLC's negative outlook.
Barclays also solicits issuer ratings from R&I and the ratings of A- for Barclays PLC and A for BBPLC were affirmed in July 2017 with stable outlooks.
CRD IV c apital
Barclays' end point CET1 regulatory requirement is expected to be 11.4% comprising of a 4.5% Pillar 1 minimum, a 2.5% CCB, a 1.5% G-SII buffer, a 2.4% Pillar 2A requirement and an expected 0.5% CCyB.
The CCB and the G-SII buffer, determined by the PRA in line with guidance from the Financial Stability Board (FSB), are subject to phased implementation at 25% per annum from 2016 with full effect from 2019. The CCB has been set at 2.5% with 1.25% applicable for 2017. The G-SII buffer was set at 2% with 1% applicable for 2017. On 21 November 2016 the FSB confirmed that the G-SII buffer has been set at 1.5% with 1.1% applicable for 2018. On 21 November 2017 the FSB confirmed that the G-SII buffer will remain at 1.5% applicable for 2019.
On 25 September 2017 the Financial Policy Committee (FPC) reaffirmed that it expects to increase the UK CCyB rate from 0% to 0.5% applicable from 27 June 2018 and to 1% applicable from 28 November 2018. Based on current UK exposures, Barclays' CCyB is expected to be approximately 0.5% from November 2018. Other national authorities also determine the appropriate CCyBs that should be applied to exposures in their jurisdiction, however based on current exposures these are not material.
Barclays' Pillar 2A requirement as per the PRA's Individual Capital Guidance (ICG) for Q417 and 2018 is 4.3% of which at least 56.25% needs to be met in CET1 form, equating to approximately 2.4% of RWAs. Certain elements of the Pillar 2A requirement are a fixed quantum whilst others are a proportion of RWAs and are based on a point in time assessment. The Pillar 2A requirement is subject to at least annual review.
For regulatory reporting purposes, BAGL is treated on a proportional consolidation basis based on Barclays' holding in BAGL of 14.9%.
As at 31 December 2017, Barclays' CET1 ratio was 13.3% which exceeded the 2017 transitional minimum requirement of 9.2%, which comprised of a 4.5% Pillar 1 minimum, a 2.4% Pillar 2A requirement, a 1.25% CCB, a 1% G-SII buffer and a 0% CCyB.

The transitional regulatory adjustments to CET1 capital are no longer applicable resulting in CET1 capital on a fully loaded basis being equal to that on a transitional basis. |
2 |
The CRD IV CET1 ratio (FSA October 2012 transitional statement) as applicable to Barclays' tier 2 Contingent Capital Notes was 13.9% based on £43.5bn of transitional CRD IV CET1 capital and £313bn of RWAs. |

The PRA transitional capital is based on the PRA Rulebook and accompanying supervisory statements. |
4 |
As at 31 December 2017, Barclays' fully loaded tier 1 capital was £50,376m, and the fully loaded tier 1 ratio was 16.1%. Fully loaded total regulatory capital was £64,646m and the fully loaded total capital ratio was 20.7%. 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. |
5 |
Of the £12.3bn transitional AT1 capital, fully loaded AT1 capital comprised the £8.9bn of contingent convertible instruments issued by Barclays PLC (the Parent company) and related share premium accounts, and £0.1bn capital deductions. It excludes £3.5bn legacy tier 1 capital instruments issued by subsidiaries that are subject to grandfathering. For the leverage ratio, only the AT1 capital on a fully loaded basis is applicable. |

Closing CET1 capital |
41,565 |
41,565 |
CET1 capital decreased to £41.6bn (December 2016: £45.2bn) due to the following:
• |
A £1.3bn loss for the period attributable to equity holders reflecting profit after tax of £1.1bn, including the net tax charge of £0.9bn due to the re-measurement of US DTAs in Q417, offset by £2.3bn of losses in respect of the discontinued operation. The discontinued operation losses, resulting from the impairment of Barclays' holding in BAGL allocated to goodwill and the recycling of BAGL currency translation reserve losses to the income statement, had no impact on CET1 capital with offsetting movements in the goodwill and intangible assets deduction and other qualifying reserves |
• |
A £1.0bn decrease for dividends paid and foreseen |
• |
A £0.4bn increase in the available for sale reserve primarily due to gains from changes in fair value on BAGL's remaining shares held as available for sale |
• |
The currency translation reserve remained in line largely due to the £1.4bn recycling of BAGL losses to the income statement which were offset by a £1.3bn decrease driven by the depreciation of period end USD against GBP |
• |
A £0.9bn decrease in other reserves which included a £0.5bn decrease as a result of USD preference share redemptions and £0.4bn of separation payments in relation to the sale of Barclays' holding in BAGL |
• |
A £0.6bn decrease net of tax as a result of movements relating to pensions. The pension asset capital deduction increase relates to the UK Retirement Fund (UKRF) which is the Group's main pension scheme, moving from a small deficit in December 2016 to a £1.0bn surplus, largely due to payment of deficit contributions |
• |
A £1.8bn decrease due to BAGL minority interests which are no longer eligible as a result of proportional consolidation of BAGL |
• |
A £1.1bn increase due to a reduced goodwill and intangible assets deduction largely as a result of the impairment of Barclays' holding in BAGL allocated to goodwill |

Foreign exchange movements do not include foreign exchange for counterparty credit risk or market risk. |
RWAs decreased £52.6bn to £313.0bn:
• |
Book size decreased RWAs £6.8bn primarily due to portfolio rundowns related to Barclays Non-Core, the re-measurement of US DTAs as a result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and securitisation transactions, partially offset by increased trading activity in the investment banking business |
• |
Acquisitions and disposals decreased RWAs £34.8bn primarily as a result of the proportional consolidation of BAGL |
• |
Book quality decreased RWAs £2.9bn primarily due to changes in risk profile in CIB |
• |
Model updates decreased RWAs £1.4bn primarily due to model changes in Africa Banking prior to the sell down of Barclays' holding in BAGL |
• |
Methodology and policy decreased RWAs £2.2bn primarily due to a revised calculation basis for modelled derivative exposures |
• |
Foreign exchange movements decreased RWAs £4.5bn primarily due to the depreciation of period end USD against GBP |
Leverage ratio s and exposures
In October 2017, following the FPC recommendation, the PRA increased the minimum requirement for the UK leverage ratio from 3% to 3.25%. Barclays is subject to a leverage ratio requirement that is implemented on a phased basis, with a transitional requirement of 3.6% as at 31 December 2017; this comprises the 3.25% minimum requirement, a transitional G-SII additional leverage ratio buffer (G-SII ALRB) of 0.35% and a countercyclical leverage ratio buffer (CCLB) which is currently nil. Although the leverage ratio is expressed in terms of tier 1 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 0.35% transitional G-SII ALRB was £3.4bn. The fully loaded expected end point UK leverage requirement is 4.0%.
Barclays is required to disclose an average UK leverage ratio which is based on capital and exposure measures on the last day of each month in the quarter; as well as a UK leverage ratio which is based on the last day of the quarter. Both approaches exclude qualifying claims on central banks from the leverage exposures. Barclays is also required to disclose a Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR) leverage ratio, which is based on the end point CRR definition of tier 1 capital and the CRR definition of leverage exposure.

Included within financial assets designated at fair value are reverse repurchase agreements designated at fair value of £100bn (December 2016: £63bn). |
The average UK leverage ratio increased to 4.9% (December 2016: 4.5%) primarily driven by the issuance of AT1 securities, the reduction in Non-Core related exposures and due to regulatory proportional consolidation of BAGL.
The CRR leverage ratio decreased to 4.5% (December 2016: 4.6%). The difference between the average UK leverage ratio and the CRR leverage ratio movement is primarily driven by an increase in cash at central banks, which are excluded from the UK leverage ratio calculation. Additionally, the year end fully loaded tier 1 capital is lower than the average due to the re-measurement of US DTAs as a result of the US Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
• |
Loans and advances and other assets increased £7bn to £714bn. This was primarily due to a £69bn increase in cash and balances at central banks largely driven by an increase in the cash contribution to the Group liquidity pool mainly exempt under UK leverage rules and a £70bn decrease in assets held for sale driven by the sell down of Barclays' holding in BAGL |
• |
Reverse repurchase agreements increased £36bn to £112bn primarily due to an increase in matched book trading |
• |
Net derivative leverage exposures decreased £33bn to £166bn due to a reduction in interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives, the rundown of Non-Core related assets, a decrease in cash collateral and the depreciation of period end USD and JPY against GBP |
• |
Regulatory consolidation adjustments increased £14bn to £8bn primarily due to the proportional consolidation of BAGL following the sell down of Barclays' holding |
• |
Weighted off balance sheet commitments decreased £16bn to £103bn primarily due to the proportional consolidation of BAGL following the sell down of Barclays' holding |
Additional Barclays regulatory disclosures are prepared in accordance with the European Banking Authority (EBA) Guidelines on disclosure requirements under Part Eight of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (refer to the Barclays Pillar 3 Report) and will be disclosed on 22 February 2018, available at home.barclays/results.
Net interest income sensitivity (AEaR) by business unit
The table below shows a sensitivity analysis on pre-tax net interest income for non-trading financial assets and financial liabilities, including the effect of any hedging. The sensitivity has been measured using the Annual Earnings at Risk (AEaR) methodology as described on page 168 of the Barclays Pillar 3 Report. Note that this metric assumes an instantaneous parallel change to interest rate forward curves. The model floors shocked market rates at zero; changes in net interest income sensitivity are only observed where forward rates are greater than zero. The main model assumptions are: (i) one year time horizon; (ii) balance sheet is held constant; (iii) balances are adjusted for assumed behavioural profiles (e.g. considers that customers may remortgage before the contractual maturity); and (iv) behavioural assumptions are kept unchanged in all rate scenarios.

Excludes treasury operations, which are driven by the firm's investments in the liquidity pool, which are risk managed using value-based risk measures described on pages 168-169 of the Barclays Pillar 3 Report. Treasury's net interest income (AEaR) sensitivity to a +25/-25bps move is £13m/£(2)m respectively. |
3 |
Expected fixed rate mortgage pipeline completions in Barclays UK assumed to be consistent with level and timing of pipeline hedging. |
Net interest income asymmetry arises due to the current low level of interest rates. Modelled net interest income sensitivity to a -25bp shock to rates has however reduced year-on-year as a result of the change in UK base rate increasing from 0.25% to 0.5% in November 2017.
Both Barclays UK and Barclays International exposures to falling rates have reduced as a result of the higher base rate environment and the movement of customer savings rates away from the implicit customer savings market 0% floor.

As a result of the early adoption of the own credit provisions of IFRS 9 on 1 January 2017, own credit, which was previously recorded in the income statement, is now recognised within other comprehensive income. The cumulative unrealised own credit net loss of £175m has therefore been reclassified from retained earnings to a separate own credit reserve, within other reserves. During the year ended 31 December 2017, a £4m loss (net of tax) on own credit has been booked in the reserve. |

Financial Statement Notes
1. Tax
The effective tax rate of 63.3% is higher than the UK corporation tax rate of 19.25% and higher than the effective tax rate for 2016 of 30.7%, primarily due to the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("US Tax Reform"), enacted on 22 December 2017, which reduced the US federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. This has resulted in a one-off tax charge as a result of the re-measurement of the Group's US deferred tax assets in 2017. This downward re-measurement of the Group's US DTAs as a result of the rate reduction is partially offset by the increase in the value of BBPLC's US branch DTAs as a result of BBPLC making a tax election in the period to exclude the future profits and losses of its overseas branches from UK taxation.

The profit after tax attributable to other equity instrument holders of £639m (2016: £457m) is offset by a tax credit recorded in reserves of £174m (2016: £128m). The net amount of £465m (2016: £329m), along with non-controlling interests, is deducted from profit after tax in order to calculate earnings per share and return on average tangible shareholders' equity. |

Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) redress
As at 31 December 2017, Barclays had recognised cumulative provisions totalling £9.2bn (December 2016: £8.4bn) against the cost of PPI redress and associated processing costs, with utilisation of £7.6bn (December 2016: £6.4bn), leaving a residual provision of £1.6bn (December 2016: £2.0bn).
Through to 31 December 2017, 2.1m (December 2016: 1.8m) customer initiated claims1 had been received and processed. The volume of claims received during 2017 increased 16% from 2016. This increase was impacted by a Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) advertising campaign launched in H217.
The current provision reflects the estimate of costs of PPI redress primarily relating to customer initiated complaints and on-going remediation programmes, based on information at year end. This also includes liabilities managed by third parties arising from portfolios previously sold where Barclays remains liable, based on information at year end.
As at 31 December 2017, the provision of £1.6bn represents Barclays' best estimate of expected PPI redress reflecting the complaints deadline implemented by the FCA of 29 August 2019. However, it is possible the eventual outcome may differ from the current estimate. We will continue to review the adequacy of provision level in respect of the future impacts.
The PPI provision is calculated using a number of key assumptions which continue to involve significant modelling and management judgement:
• |
Customer initiated claim volumes - claims received but not yet processed plus an estimate of future claims initiated by customers, where the volume is anticipated to cease after the PPI deadline |
• |
Average claim redress - the expected average payment to customers for upheld claims based on the type and age of the policy/policies |
• |
Processing cost per claim - the cost to Barclays of assessing and processing each valid claim |
These assumptions remain subjective, mainly due to the uncertainty associated with future claims levels, which include complaints driven by claims management company (CMC) activity and the FCA advertising campaigns.
The following table details actual data through to 31 December 2017, key forecast assumptions used in the provision calculation and a sensitivity analysis illustrating the impact on the provision if the future expected assumptions prove too high or too low.

8. Retirement benefits
As at 31 December 2017, the Group's IAS 19 pension surplus across all schemes was £0.7bn (2016: £0.4bn deficit). The UK Retirement Fund (UKRF), which is the Group's main scheme, had a surplus of £1.0bn (2016: £27m deficit). The movement for the UKRF was driven by payment of deficit contributions, higher than assumed asset returns, updated mortality assumptions and lower expected future price inflation, offset by a decrease in the discount rate, transfers out of the scheme and the introduction of an assumption for future transfers out.
UKRF funding valuations
The scheme actuary prepares an annual update of the UKRF funding position in addition to the full triennial actuarial valuation. The latest annual update was carried out as at 30 September 2017 and showed a deficit of £4.8bn and a funding level of 86.8%.
The last triennial actuarial valuation of the UKRF had an effective date of 30 September 2016 and was completed in July 2017. This valuation showed a funding deficit of £7.9bn and a funding level of 81.5%.
The improvement in funding position between 30 September 2016 and 30 September 2017 was largely due to payment of deficit contributions, higher than assumed asset returns, higher government bond yields and transfers out of the scheme.
The recovery plan agreed as part of the 2016 triennial actuarial valuation requires BBPLC to pay deficit contributions of £0.5bn per annum between 2018 and 2020, followed by £1.0bn per annum between 2021 and 2026. The deficit reduction contributions are in addition to the regular contributions to meet the Group's share of the cost of benefits accruing over each year. The agreement with the UKRF Trustee also takes into account the changes to the Group structure that will be implemented as a result of ring-fencing1. BBPLC will remain as the principal employer of the UKRF. Additional support measures agreed include a collateral arrangement, joint participation of BBUKPLC until 2025, and support from Barclays PLC should BBPLC not pay the deficit contributions to the UKRF.
The next triennial actuarial valuation of the UKRF is due to be completed in 2020 with an effective date of 30 September 2019.

9. Called up share capital
Called up share capital comprised of 17,060m (2016: 16,963m) ordinary shares of 25p each. The increase was due to the issuance of 46m (2016: 116m) shares under employee share schemes and a further 51m (2016: 42m) issued as part of the Barclays PLC Scrip Dividend Programme.
10. Other equity instruments
Other equity instruments of £8,941m (2016: £6,449m) included AT1 securities issued by Barclays PLC. The increase was primarily due to two issuances of GBP AT1 securities (December 2016: one issuance of USD AT1 securities), with a principal amount of £2.5bn (December 2016: £1.1bn).
The AT1 securities are perpetual securities with no fixed maturity and are structured to qualify as AT1 instruments under CRD IV.
All AT1 securities will be converted into ordinary shares of Barclays PLC, at a pre-determined price, should the fully loaded CET1 ratio of Barclays PLC fall below 7.0%.

Currency t ranslation r eserve
As at 31 December 2017 there was a credit balance of £3,054m (2016: £3,051m credit) in the currency translation reserve. The movement in the credit balance of £3m (2016: £3,674m credit) principally reflected the depreciation of period end USD against GBP, offset by a £1,566m net loss (2016: £101m net gain) from recycling of the currency translation reserve to the income statement. This included a £1,377m loss on the recycling of the currency translation reserve associated with the disposal of BAGL.
Available for s ale r eserve
As at 31 December 2017 there was a credit balance of £364m (2016: £74m debit) in the available for sale reserve. The increase of £438m (2016: £391m decrease) was primarily due to £340m of gains from changes in fair value on BAGL's remaining shares held as AFS. The remaining movements mostly relate to changes in fair value of government bonds predominantly held in the liquidity pool and related hedging. There was also £291m of net gains transferred to the income statement. A tax charge of £27m was recognised in the period relating to these items.
Cash f low h edg ing r eserve
As at 31 December 2017, there was a credit balance of £1,161m (2016: £2,105m credit) in the cash flow hedging reserve. The decrease of £944m (2016: £844m increase) principally reflected a £621m decrease in the fair value of interest rate swaps held for hedging purposes as interest rate forward curves increased, £632m of gains recycled to the income statement in line with when the hedged item affects profit or loss and a tax credit of £321m.
Own credit r eserve
Changes in own credit in respect of debt instruments recognised at fair value through the income statement under the fair value option are recognised in the Group's other comprehensive income from 1 January 2017 upon the early adoption of the own credit provisions of IFRS 9.
As at 31 December 2017, the amount of own credit recognised in the Group's other comprehensive income was a debit balance of £179m. Upon adoption of IFRS 9, an opening debit balance of £175m was recognised, with a further £4m loss (net of tax) recorded during 2017.
Other reserves and treasury shares
As at 31 December 2017 there was a credit balance of £983m (2016: £969m credit) in other reserves and treasury shares. The increase principally reflected £329m (2016: £166m) transferred from treasury shares reflecting the vesting of deferred share based payments, partially offset by £315m (2016: £140m) net purchases of treasury shares held for the purposes of employee share schemes.

During the year, a number of disposal groups classified as held for sale were disposed of. The £70.3bn decrease in assets was driven by the disposals of BAGL (£65.1bn), the French retail business (£4.0bn), the Egypt business (£1.0bn), Barclays Vida Pensiones (£0.7bn) and the Zimbabwe business (£0.4bn). The associated liabilities of the above disposal groups were also sold in the year.
Discontinued Operation
On 1 March 2016, Barclays announced its intention to reduce the Group's 62.3% interest in BAGL to a level which would permit Barclays to deconsolidate BAGL from a regulatory perspective and, prior to that, from an accounting perspective. From this date, BAGL was treated as a discontinued operation. On 5 May 2016, Barclays sold 12.2% of the Group's interest in BAGL and on 1 June 2017 Barclays sold a further 33.7% of BAGL ' s issued share capital, resulting in the accounting deconsolidation of BAGL from the Barclays Group. At this time, Barclays' holding in BAGL technically met the requirements to be treated as an Associate. However, following a revision of its governance rights in July 2017 and the difference being immaterial, the holding was treated as an AFS asset from the transaction date.
In Q317 Barclays contributed 1.5% of BAGL's ordinary shares to a Black Economic Empowerment scheme, resulting in Barclays accounting for 126 million ordinary shares in BAGL, representing 14.9% of BAGL's issued share capital. The retained investment is reported as an AFS asset, in the Head Office segment, with Barclays ' share of BAGL's dividend recognised in the Head Office income statement.
Prior to the disposal of shares on 1 June 2017, BAGL met the requirements for presentation as a discontinued operation. As such, the results, which have been presented as the profit after tax and non-controlling interest in respect of the discontinued operation on the face of the Group income statement, are analysed in the income statement below. The income statement, statement of other comprehensive income and cash flow statement below represent five months of results as a discontinued operation to 31 May 2017, compared to the full year ended 31 December 2016.

Appendix: 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 business' 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 Barclays PLC and its subsidiaries (the Group). They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by Barclays' management.
Any non-IFRS performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well.
Non-IFRS performance measures glossary
Measure |
Definition |
Loan: deposit ratio |
Loans and advances divided by customer accounts calculated for Barclays UK and Barclays International, excluding investment banking balances other than interest earning lending. This excludes particular liabilities issued by the retail businesses that have characteristics comparable to retail deposits (for example structured Certificates of Deposit and retail bonds), which are included within debt securities in issue. The components of the calculation have been included on page 30. |
Period end allocated tangible equity |
Allocated tangible equity is calculated as 12.0% (2016: 11.5%) of CRD IV fully loaded risk weighted assets for each business, adjusted for CRD IV fully loaded capital deductions, excluding goodwill and intangible assets, reflecting the assumptions the Group uses for capital planning purposes. Head Office allocated tangible equity represents the difference between the Group's tangible shareholders' equity and the amounts allocated to businesses. |
Average tangible shareholders' equity |
Calculated as the average of the previous month's period end tangible equity and the current month's period end tangible equity. The average tangible shareholders' equity for the period is the average of the monthly averages within that period. |
Average allocated tangible equity |
Calculated as the average of the previous month's period end allocated tangible equity and the current month's period end allocated tangible equity. The average allocated tangible equity for the period is the average of the monthly averages within that period. |
Return on average tangible shareholders' equity |
Statutory profit after tax attributable to ordinary shareholders, including an adjustment for the tax credit in reserves in respect of other equity instruments, as a proportion of average shareholders' equity excluding non-controlling interests and other equity instruments adjusted for the deduction of intangible assets and goodwill. The components of the calculation have been included on pages 56-57. |
Return on average allocated tangible equity |
Statutory profit after tax attributable to ordinary shareholders, including an adjustment for the tax credit in reserves in respect of other equity instruments, as a proportion of average allocated tangible equity. The components of the calculation have been included on pages 56-57. |
Cost: income ratio |
Operating expenses divided by total income. |
Operating expenses excluding litigation and conduct |
Operating expenses excluding charges for litigation and conduct. The components of the calculation have been included on page 57. |
Loan loss rate |
Quoted in basis points and represents total loan impairment divided by gross loans and advances to banks and customers held at amortised cost at the balance sheet date. The components of the calculation have been included on page 26. |
Net interest margin |
Net interest income divided by the sum of average customer assets. The components of the calculation have been included on page 22. |
Tangible net asset value |
Calculated by dividing shareholders' equity, excluding non-controlling interests and other equity instruments, less goodwill and intangible assets, by the number of issued ordinary shares. The components of the calculation have been included on page 57. |
Returns
Return on average tangible equity is calculated as profit for the period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent (adjusted for the tax credit recorded in reserves in respect of interest payments on other equity instruments) divided by average tangible equity for the period, excluding non-controlling and other equity interests for businesses. Allocated tangible equity has been calculated as 12.0% (2016: 11.5%) of CRD IV fully loaded RWAs for each business, adjusted for CRD IV fully loaded capital deductions, excluding goodwill and intangible assets, reflecting the assumptions the Group uses for capital planning purposes. Head Office average allocated tangible equity represents the difference between the Group's average tangible shareholders' equity and the amounts allocated to businesses.
