Its main subsidiary companies are The Royal Bank of Scotland, NatWest, Ulster Bank and Coutts. Prior to a name-change in July 2020, it was known as Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) Group. After a massive bailout in 2008, a majority of RBS' shares were purchased by the UK Government.

As part of this process it divested its ownership of Citizens Financial Group, the 13th largest bank in the United States, in 2015. As of 2020 it remains 61.93% UK Government owned, via UK Financial Investments (UKFI).

These statements constitute “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution that these statements may and often do vary materially from actual results. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that actual results will not differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. You should read the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” in our Q1 Results announcement published on 29th April 2016. Page 2 Operator: This is conference #89104610. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Today's conference will be hosted by Ross McEwan, CEO of RBS. Please go ahead, Ross. Ross McEwan: Thanks, Will, and good morning everyone, thanks for joining Ewen and I for our Q1 results call. It's only been a month or so since we presented our full- year results; with that in mind we'll keep our remarks brief and focus on the progress we've made so far this year. I'll then hand over to Ewen, and then be back for questions. At the end of the year we set out five clear goals for 2016 and I think we've made good progress against them in Q1. The improvements to our core business are delivering much better customer service scores and reflecting into greater volume growth across the majority of our brands. In the quarter we made an operating profit of GBP421 million and the six franchises that form our core business has generated a return on equity of 10.9 percent, a good return in a competitive environment.

  • Friday, 19 July 2019 E & OE
    800 Bourke Street Docklands VIC 3008 AUSTRALIA news.nab.com.au Friday, 19 July 2019 E & O E – PROOF ONLY Phil Chronican: Thanks Mark, and welcome everybody today. When we set out the criteria for our CEO search earlier in the year, we said we were looking for three things from a candidate. First of all someone, who understood the context that NAB and the industry in Australia was facing and somebody who understood what it was our customers would expect of the bank in today’s era. Secondly, we were looking for somebody with genuine operating experience, who knows what it takes to drive change in a large, complex organisation. And thirdly, we were looking for somebody who can paint a vision of the future for our 34,000 people, and inspire and motivate them to deliver for our customers. So, we were very fortunate to find someone who filled all three of these criteria and we are delighted today to be announcing that Ross McEwan will be National Australia Bank’s next Chief Executive Officer. Ross is an experienced banker and an experienced CEO and he has done an amazing job at turning around RBS, restoring its profitability and moving to repair its reputation. Ross will continue to observe his obligations to RBS until they appoint their replacement CEO, which is why there is some uncertainty as to when Ross’ exact start date will be with us. While that may take up until April next year, we are hopeful Ross will be able to join us prior to then.
