Reporting Changes in 2006

Barclays PLC 16 June 2006 16th June 2006 BARCLAYS PLC GROUP REPORTING CHANGES IN 2006 Barclays PLC today announces the impact of certain changes in Group structure and reporting on 2005 and 2004 results, as advised in the conference call for the Trading Update on 25th May 2006. Barclays has realigned a number of reportable business segments based on the reorganisation of certain portfolios to better reflect the type of client served, the nature of the products offered and the associated risks and rewards. The Group's policy for the internal cost of funding and the segmental disclosure of risk weighted assets was also revised with effect from 1st January 2006. The restatements have no impact on the Group Income Statement or Balance Sheet. The 2005 and 2004 results for all the businesses are restated on pages 4 to 37 to show the effects of all of these changes. Group structure changes - effective 1st January 2006 UK Retail Banking comprises Personal Customers, Local Business (formerly Small Business), UK Premier and Home Finance (formerly Mortgages). A number of smaller business clients previously within UK Business Banking are now managed and reported within UK Retail Banking. UK Business Banking comprises Larger Business and Medium Business including Asset and Sales Finance. A number of financial institution, large corporate and property clients previously within UK Business Banking are now managed by and reported in Barclays Capital. A number of smaller business clients previously within UK Business Banking are now managed and reported within UK Retail Banking. Certain portfolios have been reclassified as businesses in transition and are now managed and reported in Head office functions and other operations. Barclays Capital has added a number of financial institutions, large corporates and property companies previously managed within UK Business Banking and International Retail and Commercial Banking - Absa. International Retail and Commercial Banking - Absa. The majority of Absa Corporate and Merchant Banking has been relaunched as Absa Capital and is being managed and reported in Barclays Capital. Head office functions and other operations. Certain lending portfolios previously managed within UK Business Banking have been reclassified as businesses in transition. These businesses are now centrally managed with the objective of maximising the recovery from these assets. The structure remains unchanged for: Barclays Global Investors; Wealth Management; Wealth Management - closed life assurance activities; Barclaycard and; International Retail and Commercial Banking excluding Absa. Changes to internal cost of funding - effective 1st January 2006 All transactions between the businesses are conducted on an arm's length basis. Internal charges and transfer pricing adjustments are reflected in the performance of each business. Head office functions and other operations contains a centralised Treasury function which manages the Group's capital base, generating a net interest income. Previously the net interest income was allocated to the businesses based on the level of economic capital held by each business as a proportion of that held by the Group, which ensured a nil net interest income result in Treasury. The allocation is now determined by applying Treasury's effective rate of return on capital to the average economic capital held by each business. In 2005 this had the effect of retaining a greater proportion of Treasury income within Head office functions and other operations, reflecting the capital and goodwill balances held centrally. This approach has been applied to all businesses. There is no change to the Group's net interest income as previously reported. Changes to risk weighted assets by business - effective 1st January 2006 Under the Group's securitisation programme, certain portfolios of loans and advances to customers and other assets subject to securitisation or similar risk transfer are adjusted in calculating the Group's risk weighted assets. With effect from 1st January 2006 the costs associated with each securitisation, which were previously held centrally, will be allocated to the relevant businesses. The regulatory capital adjustments arising from the securitisation programme will be attributed to the business which bears the costs. This approach has been applied to all businesses. There is no change to the Group's total risk weighted assets as previously reported.
