Statement re: Sir Michael Rake

Barclays PLC and Barclays Bank PLC (Barclays) note recent press speculation concerning Sir Michael Rake's position on the Barclays Boards. Barclays wishes to make clear that Sir Michael Rake will continue to serve on the Barclays Boards as Deputy Chairman and Senior Independent Director until such time as a new Group Chief Executive is in post, John McFarlane has reverted to the role of Non-Executive Chairman and a replacement Senior Independent Director is in place. This is to ensure that the highest standards of corporate governance are maintained. Any conflict of interest which may arise in respect of his Chairmanship of Worldpay will be managed in the normal manner.
