Findings of the Regulatory Decisions Committee

The Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") has today published a Decision Notice issued by the Regulatory Decisions Committee ("RDC") relating to Barclays' former CEO, Jes Staley.

The Decision Notice finds that Mr Staley acted recklessly in approving a letter dated 8 October 2019 from Barclays to the FCA regarding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein (which the RDC concluded was misleading) and, by doing so, that he breached Individual Conduct Rule 1 (acting with integrity), Individual Conduct Rule 3 (being open and cooperative with regulators) and Senior Management Conduct Rule 4 (disclosing appropriately information of which the FCA or PRA would reasonably expect notice).

Mr Staley has decided to refer the Decision Notice to the Upper Tribunal for reconsideration.

Remuneration decisions in respect of Jes Staley

As previously disclosed, the Remuneration Committee of the Board of Barclays PLC (the "Remuneration Committee") exercised its discretion to suspend all of Mr Staley's deferred bonus and LTIP awards pending further developments in respect of the regulatory and legal proceedings related to the FCA and PRA investigation regarding Mr Staley.

Following consideration of the detailed findings in the Decision Notice and the information referred to in it, the Remuneration Committee has concluded that Mr Staley should be ineligible for or forfeit a number of awards, as follows:

●

his bonus award in respect of the 2021 performance year.

●

his unvested LTIP awards that were still subject to performance conditions, with a face value of £14.3m, and other unvested LTIP awards for which the performance conditions had already been assessed, with a face value of £1.4m.

●

his other unvested deferred bonus awards from earlier years. These awards had a face value of £2.1m, which was reduced to zero through the application of 'malus'.

The total value of the lapsed LTIP awards and forfeited deferred compensation awards was £17.8m.

Notes:

Barclays was not the subject of the FCA's investigation or the proceedings before the RDC and there are no findings made against it or any of its directors or employees in the Decision Notice. Barclays cooperated fully with the regulatory investigation.

All values are based on the mid-market closing share price on 10 October 2023.
