British multinational universal bank Barclays PLC (NYSE:BCS) shares are trading lower on Friday. The Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) has directed Barclays to conduct a detailed review of its leveraged finance exposure, in the wake of a broader examination of how U.K. banks are managing risks associated with private equity investments.

Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) is reportedly in discussions to shift its General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) credit-card program to Barclays PLC (NYSE:BCS), marking a huge move in Goldman’s withdrawal from consumer lending.
