Segmental Reporting Restatement Document

April 2019

The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc

Overview of business re-segmentation

This announcement sets out changes to RBS's operating segments and consequent changes in results presentation. The announcement contains re-presented financial results for the year ended 31 December 2018 and, is presented to aid comparison of RBS's quarter ended 31 March 2019 results with prior periods. Re-presented financial information for the quarters ended 31 December 2018 and 31 March 2018 are included.

Segmental reorganisation

RBS continues to deliver on its plan to build a strong, simple and fair bank for both customers and shareholders. To support this, the following previously reported operating segments are now realigned, with comparatives re-presented:

• Effective from 1 January 2019, Business Banking has been transferred from UK Personal and Business Banking (UK PBB) to Commercial Banking as the nature of the business, including distribution channels, products and customers, are more closely aligned to the Commercial Banking (CB) business. Concurrent with the transfer, UK PBB has been renamed to UK Personal Banking (UK PB) and the previous franchise combining UK PBB (now UK PB) and Ulster Bank RoI has been renamed Personal & Ulster. The Commercial & Private Banking franchise has also been renamed to Commercial & Private.

Quarter ended 31 March 2019 results

RBS's results for the quarter ended 31 March 2019 will be announced on Friday 26 April 2019. These results will be reported on the new structure and reporting basis as described above.

In conjunction with this Segmental Reporting Restatement Document, a financial supplement showing re-presented financial information for the last nine quarters is available at www.rbs.com/results.

Notes:

(1) Reportable operating segment UK Personal and Business Banking renamed to UK Personal Banking to reflect re-segmentation.

(2) Central items include unallocated transactions which principally comprise volatile items under IFRS and RMBS related charges.

(3) RBS's CET 1 target is approximately 14% but for the purposes of computing segmental return on equity (ROE), to better reflect the differential drivers of capital usage, segmental operating profit after tax and adjusted for preference share dividends is divided by average notional equity allocated at different rates of 14% (Ulster Bank RoI), 12% (Commercial Banking), 13.5% (Private Banking), 16% (RBS International) and 15% for all other segments, of the monthly average of segmental risk-weighted assets equivalents (RWAes) incorporating the effect of capital deductions. RBS return on equity is calculated using profit for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders over tangible net asset value.

(4) Operating lease depreciation included in income for the year ended 31 December 2018 - £121 million; Q4 2018 - £32 million; Q1 2018 - £31 million.

(5) Funded assets exclude derivative assets.

(6) On 1 January 2018, 7,600 employees on a FTE basis were transferred from Central items to UK Personal Banking, 200 to Ulster Bank RoI, 3,700 to Commercial Banking and 400 to Private Banking.

Notes:

(1) Reportable operating segment UK Personal and Business Banking renamed to UK Personal Banking to reflect re-segmentation.

(2) Return on equity is based on segmental operating profit after tax adjusted for preference dividends divided by average notional equity based on 15% of the monthly average of segmental Risk-weighted assets equivalents (RWAes), incorporating the effect of capital deductions, assuming 28% tax rate. Return on equity is calculated using profit for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders.
