APPENDIX
Q421 baseline UK and US MEVS have improved from
Q321, including unemployment forecasts in both the
UK and US
Total Group impairment allowance reduced by £0.5bn to £6.3bn,
reflecting write-offs of £352m, an impairment release of £31m and
other movements including FX
Given reduced unsecured lending balances and an improved macroeconomic outlook,
the impairment charge is expected to remain below pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels in coming quarters
Management judgements have been maintained in respect of
economic uncertainty, including customers and clients considered
to be potentially more vulnerable as government and other
support schemes have started to reduce
