Barclays PLC is ranked as the 25th largest company in the world according to Forbes Global
2000 (2008 list) and the fourth largest financial services provider in the world according
to Tier 1 capital ($32.5 billion). It is the second largest bank in the United Kingdom based
on asset size, although its share price of about 50p in January 2009 is considerably lower
as a result of a fall in investor confidence.
