There will always be problems when interest rates are governed by political rather than economic reasons. Carney is a joke and the sooner he departs these shores the better.
Shows how much I know!!!! Just in and I actually looked at the share price first and noticed it had gone down so presumed there had been no change in interest rates. Surely the market wasn't expecting a bigger increase?
D'oh!
I would have also voted against an increase at this time. The budget is just around the corner and inflation seems to have peaked at 3%, surely not that excessive with every other indicator starting to slack, house prices, average earnings, retail sales, construction. Not sure if it is to do will reputation damage as if they get it wrong here there will be personnel changes anyway.
Stick for me. The data that underpin economic activity is not good enough to justify a rate rise. The inflation data are clearly the result of the drop in sterling rather than an overheating economy, and so I'd expect the BOE to overlook the headline inflation figure. If rates are raised, it is simply because the BOE is trying to counter the current perception that its policy of �forward guidance� has been largely unhelpful and the damage to its reputation that has occurred as a result of flagging the possibility of a rate rise for the last year or so, but then failing to do so.
What does everyone think about the decision tomorrow? Personally I think it would be better to wait until after Xmas and seeing how retail sales were before committing to an increase. An increase now could send all the wrong signals to consumers / businesses who may already be struggling to keep their heads about water. The big retailers seem to be struggling a little going off this weeks updates and my gut feel is that consumers are tightening their belts and will be a bit more cautious with their spending over the festive period. Could of course be completely wide of the mark but my vote (not that it matters!) would be to keep them on hold for now.
Wish I could but there has been no funds distributed to date and there is legal dispute ongoing between action group and the solicitors who represented during court case. If this goes on much longer there will be no money left to distribute. I was also member of staff at the time as were a lot of members. Think you made right decision as I am out of pocket £1600 on top of initial loss.
Reading that ShareSoc Uk post got me thinking about the Action group and whether they have actually received anything. I wasn't a member (stupid blind loyalty as a member of staff). Any members willing to disclose what the net settlement was after fees?

Agree with your opinion Checkricky. Future for RBS is looking brighter after o/s legacy issues are settled.
Well hits 290+ ish just about and backs off ... but when we opened in the morning the share Gaped upwards so have we pulled back to more or less close this small Gap or has the market had it with this bank for today ......Tricky call to make ... As we have the BOE meeting next week for a possible rate hike I think some more upside still to come but always time will tell..........
hope to see the 290 level taken out today for change.....
Hmm diluted Nav at 291, is that a new way of recording it ? I'm sure nav used to be well NORTH of that figure
3 quarters in a row this bank is booking fat profits,,,, first time since 2008...... beating forecasts so looks good in my books......But still waiting for BOJ to settle up.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-41773706
