services background. This appointment is timely, allowing Sir Philip to participate fully
in the selection of other Non-executive Directors as well as to work closely with our
Executive Team on the new strategic plan for RBS."

present from a UKFI perspective, I am pleased to be taking on this central role at one of
the world's most important financial institutions. I look forward to working closely with
RBS' new Chief Executive, Stephen Hester, and believe we will form a strong and effective
partnership.
Current times are indeed challenging but RBS has many strong, valuable and enduring
business franchises in the UK and internationally. I am optimistic that we can
restructure the Group to allow these strengths to once again be what we are known and
valued for."
