More heads may roll at RBS over Libor

MORE senior Royal Bank of Scotland executives may be forced out as the institution, which is partly owned by the taxpayer, prepares to be hit with a multi million-pound fine over the Libor rate-fixing scandal.

The board of the Edinburgh-based institution is thought to be considering the futures of one or more key staff, with a decision from UK and US authorities imminent. John Hourican, head of its investment bank, and head of markets Peter Nielsen are reportedly the most vulnerable.
