Royal Bank of Scotland's investment banking business, slimmed down and renamed as NatWest Markets, has been focusing on debt capital markets (DCM), and with good effect. Its financial institutions group (FIG) DCM business has become one of the fastest growing in the industry.
"We are very strong in financial institutions and we have grown the FIG franchise," says Harsh Shah, NatWest Markets' head of financial institutions origination and solutions.
