treasury shares financial

"NWG will hold 178,806,719 Ordinary Shares in treasury and have 7,967,336,574"

Treasury shares are a company’s own stock that it has repurchased and keeps on its books instead of canceling or leaving in the hands of outside investors. Think of them like coupons a business puts back in a drawer: they don’t vote or receive dividends while held, but they can be reissued later for employee pay or fundraising. For investors this matters because buybacks change the number of shares that count toward earnings and ownership, can boost per‑share metrics, and use corporate cash that might otherwise go to growth or dividends.

volume weighted average price financial

"Volume weighted average price paid per share (GBp)"

The volume weighted average price (VWAP) is a way to measure the average price of a security, such as a stock, over a specific period, taking into account how many units were traded at each price. It’s similar to calculating the average cost of items bought when some are more frequently purchased than others. Investors use VWAP to assess whether a security is being bought or sold at a fair price during trading.

Market Abuse Regulation regulatory

"In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No.596/2014 as it applies in the UK (Market Abuse Regulation)"

Market abuse regulation consists of laws and rules designed to prevent dishonest or manipulative practices in financial markets. It aims to ensure fair and transparent trading, so investors can trust that markets operate honestly, much like rules that keep a game fair. By reducing unfair advantages, it helps protect investor confidence and promotes healthy, efficient markets.

Legal Entity Identifier regulatory

"Legal Entity Identifier: 2138005O9XJIJN4JPN90"

A legal entity identifier (LEI) is a unique, standardized code that functions like a global ID card for businesses and organizations involved in financial markets. It helps investors and regulators reliably identify who is on the other side of a deal, trace ownership and links between firms, and reduce confusion or fraud — improving transparency for reporting, risk assessment, and cross-border trades.
