reported within Barclaycard and the Barclays Financial Planning business,
previously managed and reported within Barclays Wealth are now managed and
reported within UK Retail Banking. The changes combine these products with
related products already offered by UK Retail Banking. In the UK certain UK
Premier customers are now managed and reported within Barclays Wealth.
Barclaycard. The unsecured lending portfolio, previously managed and reported
within Barclaycard, is now managed and reported within UK Retail Banking.
International Retail and Commercial Banking - excluding Absa. A number of high
net worth customers are now managed and reported within Barclays Wealth in order
to better match client profiles to wealth services.
Barclays Wealth. In the UK and Western Europe certain Premier and high net worth
customers are now managed and reported within Barclays Wealth having been
previously reported within UK Retail Banking and International Retail and
Commercial Banking - excluding Absa.
The Barclays Financial Planning business previously managed and reported within
Barclays Wealth, is now managed and reported within UK Retail Banking. Finally
with effect from 1st January 2007 Barclays Wealth - closed life assurance

purposes has been combined rather than being reported separately.
The structure and reporting remains unchanged for UK Business Banking,

Group net interest income 9,143 4,739 4,404 8,075
Business net interest income is derived from the interest rate earned on average
assets or paid on average liabilities relative to the average Bank of England
base rate, local equivalents for international businesses or the rate managed by
the bank using derivatives. The margin is expressed as annualised business
interest income over the relevant average balance. Asset and liability margins
cannot be added together as they are relative to the average Bank of England
base rate, local equivalent for international businesses or the rate managed by
the bank using derivatives.
Average balances are calculated on daily averages for most UK banking operations
and monthly averages elsewhere.
Within the reconciliation of Group net interest income, there is an amount
captured as Other. This relates to: benefit of capital, including the
restatement of Reserve Capital Instruments and other capital instruments; Head
office functions and other operations; and net funding on non customer assets
and liabilities.
