DOHA, 23rd Feb (Reuters) - Qatar is open to buying stakes in part state-owned UK lenders RBS and Lloyds Banking Group and has discussed investing in Britain, Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabr al-Thani said on Wednesday.

The prime minister made the remarks during a press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron.

Asked whether the Gulf Arab state would invest in RBS or Lloyds specifically, he replied: "We are very open to any investment in the UK and we have discussed some."

Note from Investec today:
"In light of the recent announcement of a voluntary settlement with the FSA with regard to certain legacy Halifax retail mortgages, costing 500m in provisions for goodwill payments to affected customers, the expected PBT for 2010e will be lighter than consensus and our pre-existing PBT forecast of 983m before fair value unwind of 2.4bn and other statutory adjustments. We retain our Hold recommendation ahead of Friday's prelims...
The level of provision taken in respect of the Halifax mortgage was 500m, but the underlying number of cases to which this relates has not been specified. Given Lloyds current 28% market share in UK retail mortgages, we expect this number to be significant when visibility develops and, given the current voluntary agreement with the FSA, the probability of the case not ending in LBGs favour looks increased. As there is no current visibility on the issue, we highlight this as a potential downside risk to future profit projections.
