Update on Payment Protection Insurance
Barclays PLC ("Barclays") is today providing an update on its provision
in relation to payment protection insurance ("PPI") redress.
As indicated in the Barclays Interim Results Announcement for the
six months ended 30 June 2019, Barclays had recognised cumulative
provisions of £9.6bn in relation to PPI redress. Utilisation
of the cumulative provisions to 30 June 2019 was £9.2bn,
leaving a residual provision of £360m.
In line with wider industry experience, Barclays has received a
significantly higher than expected volume of PPI-related claims,
enquiries and information requests during August, with a further
spike in the final days leading up to the complaints
deadline.
The processing of PPI-related claims, enquiries and information
requests is ongoing. However, Barclays expects to increase its
provision for PPI redress in its Q3 2019 Results by between
£1.2bn and £1.6bn, which takes into account
investigations and queries by the Official Receiver. This
provisional cost impact is preliminary and unaudited. The final
outcome could be above or below the estimated range and will depend
on a number of factors including the quality of recently submitted
claims.
At this level of provisioning Barclays expects to be at the Group's
target CET1 ratio of c.13% at year-end.
