Industry leaders don’t meet expectations — they redefine them. Introducing: Barclays — Insights From the Top.

An unparalleled group of 4,039 C-level executives and senior managers from Fortune Global 500 and Forbes Global 2000 companies participated in a multi-year, one-of-a-kind study. They rated Barclays’ wholesale banking performance on six key success factors: client-centricity, external engagement, competitiveness, leadership and employee quality, innovativeness, and business model efficiency and effectiveness (e.g., Barclays’ reliability as a business partner, its agility, client responsiveness, and resilience). Barclays — Insights From the Top reveals what it takes to succeed in wholesale banking (i.e., commercial, corporate, and investment banking).

This research report presents the ‘Data Only Edition’ for Barclays — Barclays’ research results. For those seeking an even deeper understanding of the drivers behind excellence in wholesale banking, seen through the lens of clients, I strongly recommend reviewing the ‘Extended Edition’ or ‘Extended + Edition’ of the Goldman Sachs report, Goldman Sachs — The Blueprint for Leadership.

Ranked first in this extensive, multi-year study, Goldman Sachs received the most nominations, offering valuable insights for every leading bank — financial behemoth or boutique bank. While each bank faces unique challenges, the in-depth analysis of Goldman Sachs’ performance provides invaluable lessons applicable across the industry.
