Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc, Britain’s largest taxpayer-owned bank, will eliminate about 100 jobs as part of an overhaul of its investment bank, according to two people with knowledge of the matter...RBS Chief Executive Officer Ross McEwan, 58, is shrinking the investment bank, exiting 25 countries around the world, cutting jobs and assets as he attempts to overturn seven straight annual losses. He’s said there will be “significant” job losses as part of the changes, without specifying how many positions will be lost at the Edinburgh-based bank.
