Barclays Sets Aside £500m For For-Ex Fines

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 30 Oktober 2014 | 14.47

Barclays has confirmed a £500m provision for fines relating to allegations foreign exchange markets were manipulated by banks.

The London-listed lender announced the figure in its third-quarter results statement which also contained further costs associated with the historic payment protection insurance (PPI) mis-selling scandal.

It set aside an additional £170m for PPI and said it was also taking a charge of £160m related to the sale of interest rate hedging products.

The group made a statutory profit before tax of £3.7bn over its first nine-months - a rise of 28% on the same period last year.

The performance was driven by stronger performances from its Personal and Corporate and separate Barclaycard arms though investment bank profits tumbled 38% to £1.3bn as its group contribution continued to shrink under chief executive Antony Jenkins.

He said the results reflected further progress towards key goals under its Transform programme - aimed at making Barclays the 'go-to' bank - and demonstrated greater resilience through its rebalancing from the 'casino banking' days.
