Good luck -

HC,

Are you sure about that.

Pardon me, I thought the problem (er why HMG lent Eire "our" money this Month), because if Eire doesn't get out of this hole they created "That Celtic Tiger" - ((the one that newspapers praised, and everyone said "how wonderful" ))- If Eire goes bankrupt (tecnically even one wheel off the track on a tight bend) then RBS might have to increase its provisions for loss, as they (or the Dutch) had lent them more than anything like colateral was worth.

Funny that, when I want a loan from "my bank" the Manager (the youth) wants to know my blood type, and have the keys to my wife's bedroom (alternate thursdays) and the new property, to make sure I keep up the repayments.

Yet, they seems to be able to lend more money than one Branch can muster on some infrastructure project that can't be "reprosessed" and we wonder why RBS execs are paid so much? Let's face it a non-banking dummy could do no worse.

what's the reason behind the jump to 47p shame it didnt last!!

probably on the tail of Barc, lloy up slightly but barc storming. All those bonuses paying off.,.

47p on the bid.

hopefully a return to 50p + this week with results due end of week

if not already announced, there will no doubt be news/confirmation about the sale of various of their assets to Santander

Interim Management Statement - Part 1 of 10!!

According to the FT -The chief executive of Royal Bank of Scotland has told senior colleagues that he will stay in the job for up to eight more years, scotching rumours that he could quit within 18 months.

isn't that a bit like a footy club chairman issuing a statement of fullest support for the manager?

cynic with his pay wouldn't you "stay in the job" for as long as HMG doesn't give him the sack.

so would the footy club manager!

yes but does Hester have an eight year contract from HMG?

I bought some RBS at the end of last week. I'm hoping to see the price move up soon.

What would make rbs go up at present, its at a disc to nav, ok, but where is the catalyst to realize that discount, so far i dont see much downside nor upside?
