Barclays will offer a referral based on several factors, including whether all of the shareholders of the company are UK residents, and based on the SIC codes (business activities) the company has chosen.

If Barclays are interested in your business’ business activity, then the referral will appear. If Barclays are not interested in that particular business activity, the referral will not appear.

Any bank referrals which appear are specifically relevant for your particular business activity.
