Bringing you ABN AMRO’s sector expertise

In late 2007, RBS successfully led the consortium bid for ABN AMRO. Building on our already extensive relationships with corporates, financial institutions and governments in Europe, North America and Asia Pacific, the ABN AMRO transaction will extend our presence to more than 50 countries, improving our ability to meet your needs around the globe.
