Is that a loss overall or just a loss in profits?

Loss overall, deeper into the red as the tax payer still owns quite a bit ...ouch

I am not surprised. So glad I quit working for them. They are actually a really bad bank to be with and don't give a shit about customers. I couldn't handle working for them; all I did was apologise all day long and take people's crap.

However , they will return to profit in a few years time and will also start paying dividends again.

How pre-Brexit?

Brexit caused a lot of uncertainty well before the actual vote.

At least we've no longer got an immigration policy problem, the NHS is now overfunded and everything in the garden is in full bloom and employment prospects are broadening due to decreased trading restrictions. Things are looking up!

Oh sorry got carried away reading the exit propaganda.

The problem with that is some one organisation has a different theory than the other LoL.

Every time some country changes something it always effects world markets and to be honest I don't trust the banks to play fair or big businesses as they are all in it for profit not good.

Every ripple in th economy can be interpreted many ways

"Is this the first time a bank has lost money? "

No, it's been hemorrhaging cash since 2008 when it was caught skinny-dipping as the tide went out.

It was the cost of bailing out the banking sector that whacked the national debt, rather than 'pigate Labour spending' as some would have us believe.

Too big to fail, apparently.

It should be pointed out that RBS will repay all tbe bail out money and the main losers will be shareholders , many of whom are pensioners and dependent on dividend income .

£2bn loss for the first 6 months of this year.

£1.3bn litigation and conduct costs

£630M staff re-structuring costs.

But as we know, from now on, anything bad.untoward/unusual etc is because of Brexit, whilst anything remotely beneficial is because we haven't left yet.

You should know by now, many posters on here prefer not to let the facts get in the way of their personal biases.

It should NEVER have been bailed out, the government should have taken control and paid out the guaranteed 32k on savings or whatever it was, everybody else should have lost everything, it's an important lesson to learn that when you give your money to somebody to invest.... There's a chance you won't get it back and nobody's really learnt that as we're all still doing it

Yes and once the bank returns to profit the tax payer will be repaid in full.

The losses will be borne by share holders who invested before the crash. i.e. pensioners and pension funds .
