The Group has resumed payments on all discretionary non-equity capital instruments following the end of the European
Commission ban in 2012 for RBS and 2013 for RBS N.V. Future coupons and dividends on hybrid capital instruments will only
be paid subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the relevant instruments. 
 
In the context of macro-prudential policy discussions, the Board decided to partially neutralise any impact on CET1 capital
of coupon and dividend payments for 2013 and 2014. £300 million of new equity was issued during the course of 2014 and the
Board has decided a further £300 million of new equity will be issued during the course of 2015 to again partially
neutralise the CET1 impact of coupon and dividend payments.

10. Earnings per ordinary and equivalent B share 
 
Following agreement between RBS and HM Treasury for the retirement of the Dividend Access Share (DAS), earnings per share
for periods ended after 25 June 2014 only reflect DAS dividends recognised before the end of a reporting period: £320
million was recognised in the quarter ended 30 June 2014. For periods ending on or before 31 March 2014 earnings are
allocated solely to the DAS and earnings per ordinary and equivalent B share for such periods are therefore nil.  The DAS
does not share in losses.  For periods prior to 25 June 2014, adjusted earnings per ordinary and equivalent B share
excludes the rights of the DAS.

11. Segmental analysis 
 
In 2014, the previously reported operating divisions were reorganised into three franchises: 
 
 ●  Personal & Business Banking (PBB), comprising two reportable segments, UK Personal & Business Banking, including Williams & Glyn, (UK PBB) and Ulster Bank.  
                                                                                                                                                                 
 ●  Commercial & Private Banking (CPB), comprising two reportable segments, Commercial Banking and Private Banking.                                              
                                                                                                                                                                 
 ●  Corporate & Institutional Banking (CIB), a single reportable segment.                                                                                        
 
 
RBS Capital Resolution (RCR) was established with effect from 1 January 2014 by the transfer of capital intensive and
higher risk assets from existing divisions. Non-Core was dissolved on 31 December 2013. No business lines moved to RCR and
so comparative data have not been restated. 
 
RBS will continue to manage and report RBS Capital Resolution (RCR) separately until disposal or wind-down. Although CFG
has been reclassified as a discontinued operation, it continues to be a reportable operating segment. 
 
Reporting Changes 
 
A number of previously reported reconciling items (PPI costs, Interest Rate Hedging Products redress and related costs,
regulatory and legal actions, restructuring costs, amortisation of purchased intangible assets and bank levy) have now been
allocated to the reportable segments. 
 
As part of its internal reorganisation, RBS has also centralised all services and functions. The costs relating to Services
and Functions previously reported as direct expenses in the divisions are now reallocated to businesses using appropriate
drivers and reported as indirect expenses in the segmental income statements. In addition, the basis of allocation of
Treasury costs has been amended to align the recovery of funding and hedging costs across RBS and for the transfer of
certain assets and their associated costs out of Treasury. 
 
Comparatives have been restated accordingly.
