The aggregate liquidity coverage ratio (LCR), calculated as NCO divided by HQLA, for Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds, RBS and Standard Chartered, was 144.7% for Q3, down from 146.6% in Q2 and 149.2% in the year-ago quarter.

Projected NCO climbed £11.5 billion ($14.8 billion) to £729.3 billion over the three months to end
