Executive Changes

Mr Fred Watt, Group Finance Director, The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc ("RBS") announces his intention to leave 
the Group later in the year.

Commenting on his decision, Mr Watt said:

"When you are working for a great organisation, with great people, it's never easy to make the decision to leave and 
I know that I will miss them. However, I have a very young family and consider myself very fortunate to be able to 
make a choice to spend more time with them. I can't put their growing up on hold - my family is my number one 
priority."

"Not many people have had the opportunity to work in an organisation that has gone through such a major transformation
in such a short period of time. I feel privileged to have been part of RBS during this exciting time and have very much
enjoyed working so closely with Fred and the rest of the team."

Commenting on Mr Watt s decision, Sir Fred Goodwin, Group Chief Executive, said:

"Fred has made an outstanding contribution as Group Finance Director since joining in 2000. I will miss him as a 
colleague, but will retain him as a friend. I fully respect his decision and the reasons for it: I'll be sad to see him 
go, as will the rest of the Board."
