Barclays PPI charge up £1.45bn
Shares in Barclays were temporarily suspended this morning following a sudden rush of share sales.
This followed their latest set of figures announced to the city, which showed a plunge in profits and yet more bad news regarding PPI.
An additional £1.45bn was added to the Barclays PPI charge, taking their total to £7.5bn.
Latest sector figures
Despite most UK banks professing that the end is nigh for the PPI scandal we continue to see quarterly additions to the ever expanding PPI fund, which now stands at £36.65bn when taking into account smaller lenders as well as the so called big four.
Barclays have joined RBS/Natwest, Santander and the Lloyds Banking Group in announcing additional PPI compensation provisions in 2016, with £5.1bn added year to date.
With HSBC yet to announce their latest results it is looking increasingly likely that 2016 will see the total bill pass the £40bn mark.
Deadlines and new hope
Had the banking industry had a tough regulator it is likely the whole PPI scandal would never have occurred.
That weak regulation continues with the Financial Conduct Authority likely to bow to demands to introduce a potentially illegal deadline for PPI claims, likely to be set sometime in 2018.
Whilst that unwanted ruling may be challenged there is some good news for customers who have had their claims rejected by lenders.
A Supreme Court ruling has offered some hope and Your Money Claim are already administering successful claims, using arguments from the court case, for customers who have previously had their claims rejected.
