The Bank of England's assessment of Barclays' resolvability capabilities, alongside its assessment of other major UK financial institutions, is available at:  

https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/financial-stability/Resolution/resolvability-assessment-framework/resolvability-assessment-of-major-uk-banks-2024

Over the past 15 years, Barclays has worked with regulators globally to enhance our resilience to financial stress, including making changes to our structure and committing significant financial resources to building, testing and enhancing our resolvability capabilities.  We are therefore pleased to note the Bank of England's assessment that there are no shortcomings, deficiencies or substantive impediments identified in the Barclays' resolution capabilities that could impede our ability to execute the preferred resolution strategy as identified by the Bank of England for Barclays Group. 

Barclays also notes the Bank of England's identification of three areas for further enhancement with respect to Valuations in Resolution, Operational Continuity in Resolution and Restructuring. These areas will form part of our continued work in delivering on our broader commitment to further embed, test and refine Barclays' resolution capabilities and operational preparedness for resolution.

We look forward to continuing to work with the Bank of England, along with the Barclays Group's other regulators and resolution authorities globally, to maintain and further enhance our resolvability capabilities and operational preparedness for resolution.
