Corporate Banking Heads Appointed In Four Countries As Part Of Growth Plan
Royal Bank of Scotland, the UK's second largest bank, is expanding its continental European operations by appointing four leading bankers to head its corporate banking businesses in France, Germany, Italy and Spain.
The move is part of the bank's growth plan that identified expansion of its corporate banking and financial markets division in continental Europe as a key priority.
RBS is already one of the region's largest providers of debt finance since the acquisition of NatWest in 1999.
The four country heads will create organisations in each market offering its full range of debt finance products, including securitisation, private placements, corporate bonds and leveraged finance.
