The investigation into the Royal Bank of Scotland’s (RBS) treatment of small and medium-sized enterprise customers transferred to its Global Restructuring Group is a matter for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), which is operationally independent of Government.

It would not be appropriate for the Government to comment further while the FCA’s investigation is ongoing.
