FY20 highlights
FY20 & 4Q20 results
FY20 costs of $31.5bn down $1.1bn (3%) vs. FY19 primarily from cost
programme saves and reductions in performance-related pay (PRP), partially
offset by increases in technology spend and inflation
4020 costs (ex. levy) of $8.3bn up $0.8bn (10%) vs. 3Q20 primarily from
increased performance-related pay, technology spend, marketing and other
BAU cost increases
4Q20 costs (ex. levy) of $8.3bn up $0.1bn (1%) vs. 4019; cost programme
saves were offset by increased technology spend, performance-related pay and
other BAU cost increases
ā FY20 cost saves* of $1.4bn, includes $1.0bn from the 2020-22 cost
programme with associated CTA of $1.8bn
ā Expect broadly stable costs (excluding the bank levy) in 2021
