Introduction

In February 2009, the Group announced its Strategic Plan refocusing on those businesses with clear competitive advantages and attractive customer franchises, primarily in stable low-to-medium risk sectors. The Non- Core division has been established and is reported separately from the divisions which form the core Group. In addition Group Manufacturing and the majority of Central Items are now allocated to customer facing divisions. Group Manufacturing costs are entirely allocated and separate reporting of its results has been discontinued. For Central i tems, volatile corporate items that do not naturally reside within a division have not been allocated. These changes do not affect the Group's results.

The Group's results have been restated for the amendment to IFRS 2 'Share-Based Payment'. This has resulted in an increase in staff costs amounting to £35 million for the first half of 2008 and £169 million for the full year 2008. The first half of 2008 has also been restated to reflect the finalisation of the ABN AMRO acquisition accounting.

Allocation methodology for indirect costs

Manufacturing directly attributable costs have been allocated to the operating divisions, based on their service usage. Where services span more than one division an appropriate measure is used to allocate the costs on a basis which management considers reasonable. Manufacturing costs are fully allocated and there are no residual unallocated costs.

Group C entre directly attributable costs have been allocated to the operating divisions, based on their service usage. Where services span more than one division, the costs are allocated on a basis management considers reasonable. The residual unallocated costs remaining in the Group Centre, relate to volatile corporate items that do not naturally reside within a division.

Treasury costs are allocated to operating divisions as follows; term funding costs are allocated or rewarded based on long term funding gap or surplus; liquidity buffer funding costs are allocated based on share of overall liquidity buffer derived from divisional stresses; and capital cost or benefit is allocated based on share of divisional risk-adjusted RWAs.
