Barclays Capital said Tuesday it fully integrated Lehman Brothers' U.S. foreign exchange and commodities businesses under the Barclays Capital name.

Foreign exchange sales and trading resumed in spot, forward and options products, under Barclays Capital's currency trading, the company said in a press release.

Commodities trading previously conducted by Lehman Brothers in North America was similarly incorporated into the comprehensive suite of commodity products and services offered by Barclays Capital.
