As well as having to sell assets (in RBS’s case its insurance business and a stake in a commodities venture) the European Competition Commission is now placing caps on how much business the bank can write within its capital markets division.

This will exclude short-term money market instruments and self-led deals that are part of the bank’s own funding programme.
