It just gets better and better
for two years whilst he was its top banana the bank was still fixing the Libor Rate
yup, another fine example of how all in it together we are !
so £780,000 shares with an option to sell after one year, banks fine was £300k...theres only one thing to really do here, isnt there Steve, c'mon Steve dont be shy you know what i'm getting at dont you !
All that fraud, no police intervention, nothing , he gets a bonus bigger than the banks fine...am I missing something here ?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.It doesn't look good- but do you really understand what the impact was of the LIBOR rigging, baz, and what his bonus might have been (for achieving other targets) if the fine hadn't been levied on the RBS bonus pot.
I am concerned though that the reduction in the bonus pots to cover the fine will hit ordinary RBS workers rather than those who were or should have been aware of it.

"It doesn't look good- but do you really understand what the impact was of the LIBOR rigging, baz, and what his bonus might have been (for achieving other targets) if the fine hadn't been levied on the RBS bonus pot. "
I do actually, for some strange reason most of my friends are in banking (a few quite senior and two in RBS ! so thanks to them i have a very good knowledge of LIBOR etc , they also cant understand why no criminal proceedings and why hes getting any bonus taking into account the current circumstances and situation.
when they say they cant understand they have their own ideas as to why no criminal proceedings and his bonus is being paid

This is a pretty good article about the issue
http:// www.cha nnel4.c om/news /libor- rate-fi xing-sc andal-t he-key- questio ns
The manipulation, whilst minimal, involved around 20 banks, including RBS, UBS and Barclays. UBS received the largest fine. Investigators found that 21 RBS employees had been involved in wrongdoing, and those responsible have now either left the bank or been sacked or disciplined.
The article is slightly misleading though in that the LIBOR rate is not set at the average- I recall the rate is based on some sort of median (after excluding any outliers), so it may be that the submission of higher or lower data did not actually affect the LIBOR rate.
I'm not sure whether this is an issue for criminal proceedings. I'm not even sure there were any losses to anyone
