BARCLAYS plc agreed to pay US$50 million to settle a US lawsuit claiming that it rigged its foreign exchange trading system to reject client orders that would be unprofitable for the British bank.

The preliminary, all-cash settlement with investors led by Axiom Investment Advisors LLC was disclosed in papers filed on Wednesday night in the US District Court in Manhattan, and requires a judge's approval.
