Barclays Portfolio holdings
Barclays PLC, founded in 1690 by goldsmith bankers in London, is a British multinational financial institution headquartered in London, operating as one of the world’s oldest banks with a significant presence in investment banking, retail banking, and wealth management. Managing billions in assets, Barclays serves millions of customers globally through its retail arm (notably in the UK) and its investment banking division, which excels in trading, mergers and acquisitions, and capital markets, competing with Wall Street giants. The bank has navigated challenges like the 2008 financial crisis—opting for private funding over a government bailout—and has since focused on restructuring, digital innovation, and sustainable finance initiatives. With a rich history and a modern global footprint, Barclays remains a key player in both UK and international financial markets.
