Update on Ring-fencing & Part VII Transfer Scheme

6 Feb 2018 11:41

RNS Number : 0628E
Santander UK Group Holdings PLC

SANTANDER UK GROUP HOLDINGS PLC

 

UPDATE ON RING-FENCING AND PART VII TRANSFER SCHEME

 

Santander UK Group Holdings plc is today providing further details of Santander UK plc's and Abbey National Treasury Services plc's proposed ring-fencing transfer scheme (the "Scheme") under Part VII of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

 

Introduction

 

Under UK legislation that will establish ring-fencing requirements for certain UK banks, the largest UK banking groups, including the Santander UK group, have to comply with new requirements to ring-fence their retail activities (such as current accounts, savings accounts and payments) by 1 January 2019.

 

As previously announced, Santander UK plc ("Santander UK") will become the Santander UK group's main ring-fenced bank ("RFB") in the UK. It will serve all Santander personal customers in the UK and the vast majority of its business customers.

 

Santander UK will also broadly, to the extent allowed by the legislation, continue to hold and serve Santander's corporate banking business in the UK. Any products Santander UK cannot offer, or customers it cannot serve, from within the RFB (which will include some Santander Global Corporate Banking business and Santander Corporate & Commercial customers) will, in most cases, be provided or served by the wider Santander group, notably Banco Santander, S.A. ("Banco Santander") through its London branch ("SLB").

 

Abbey National Treasury Services plc ("ANTS") will transfer all of its business to either Santander UK or SLB, save for a small portfolio of specific assets that will remain in ANTS and be held until their maturity.

 

 

The Scheme

 

As part of the Santander UK group's ring-fencing implementation, Santander UK and ANTS are undertaking the Scheme to help ensure that the Santander UK group will, ahead of 1 January 2019, be compliant with the ring-fencing provisions that will come into force on that date.

 

The Scheme is a legal process, overseen by the High Court of England and Wales (the "Court"), that gives effect to transfers of business so as to facilitate the creation of the ring-fence.

 

On 5 February 2018, the Court approved Santander UK's and ANTS' communications plan in respect of the Scheme. A subsequent hearing for the approval of the Scheme is expected to be held on 11 (and, if required, 12) June 2018. If the Scheme is approved at that hearing, the transfers of business under the Scheme will be effected in July and August 2018 as set out in the Scheme.

A copy of the Scheme document and a report on the effects of the Scheme prepared by an independent expert, John Cole of Ernst & Young LLP (the "Skilled Person Report"), together with summaries thereof, are available to download from santanderringfencing.co.uk
