The sale of NatWest Scotland branches and accounts

As you may be aware, the European commission requires us to sell part of our UK banking business, as a result of the state aid we received in 2009. We're currently reviewing our plans for the sale.

What's included in the sale

The sale will include:

• NatWest branches in Scotland
• RBS branches in England and Wales
• Personal and Private Banking customer accounts attached to these branches
• Certain accounts held by Business and Commercial customers attached to these branches
• NatWest and RBS Direct banking division
• Certain mid-corporate customers across the UK.

We'll continue to help with your banking

We'd like to thank you for continuing to choose us for your banking.

There's no need to do anything and it's very much business as usual. You can continue to use our branches, and our products and services just as you do at the moment.

We'll continue to keep you informed and give you plenty of notice if there are any changes that affect you.
