蘇格蘭皇家銀行將裁員2千人
中央社 更新日期:"2011/08/05 21:50"

(中央社台北5日電)英國最大官股銀行蘇格蘭皇家銀行(Royal Bank of Scotland Group)將裁員2000人,因為希臘債券減值,以及賠償保險客戶的成本導致上半年虧損。

蘇格蘭皇家銀行是英國本週第3家宣布裁員的銀行。執行長赫斯特(Stephen Hester)今天透過電話會議表示,在完成與荷蘭銀行集團(ABN Amro Holding)的整併之際,接下來12至18個月證券部門要進行裁員。

蘇格蘭皇家銀行上半年凈損14億英鎊(23億美元),大於預期。

蘇格蘭皇家銀行今天提撥8.5億英鎊賠償遭不當兜售個人貸款保險的客戶,並減記希臘債券價值達7.33億英鎊。受到主權債務危機使得交易收入大減的影響,蘇格蘭皇家銀行跟進匯豐控股(HSBC Holdings)與巴克萊銀行(Barclays)的腳步,裁撤旗下員工。(譯者:中央社徐崇哲)1000805
