Country Snapshot
Welcome to the 2023 Barclays Country Snapshot.
Tax transparency remains high on our agenda. We know that it is important for our investors, customers and clients, regulators, tax authorities and other stakeholders to understand our approach to tax and our tax contribution in the countries in which we operate.
Consistent with our commitment to tax transparency, we have published our Country Snapshot annually since 2013. This report contains an overview of our global tax contribution as well as our approach to tax, including our Tax Principles, together with our country by country data.
We continue to make substantial tax payments across the countries in which we operate and in 2023, our global tax contribution was £5,899m. This includes taxes paid of £2,505m, which represent a cost to us, and taxes collected on behalf of governments of £3,394m.
We were ranked as the sixth largest UK taxpayer, in terms of taxes paid, in the most recent PwC Total Tax Contribution survey of the One Hundred Group (100 Group). The 100 Group represents members of the FTSE 100 along with several large UK private companies. Over the last decade, we have paid over £14bn of taxes in the UK.
