RBS reports 27 billion Euros loss, largest fall of an UK bank ever
Most of the loss came from the depreciation of the assets bought from the uninspired takeover of ABN Amro, in 2007.
RBS, now mostly owned by the UK government, confirmed its intention to sell most of its assets and focus on the operations on its home-market.
The British state, currently holding 70% of the bank's, will supplement the capital issuing 13 billion Euros worth of special shares, which will not increase the state's participation.
