Notes to Editors
- “Deposits” include intra-group borrowing that is not capital in nature.
- As of 31 March 2024, foreign currency deposits comprised 44.17% (£18.67bn) of total deposits (31 December 2023: 43.54% (£18.21bn)) as expressed in sterling equivalent. These deposits are primarily denominated in US dollars and Euro. Exchange rate movements on a total foreign currency basis (GBP weakened marginally against USD by 0.79% and strengthened against EUR by 1.74%) did not materially affect the figures on 31 March 2024, compared to those on 31 December 2023.
