Historic stap of £37bn


To calm the financial panic, the British government has decided to fund Royal Bank of Scotland, Lloyds TSB and HBOS at a cost of £37bn. The government has also set up a plan in which they want that these 3 banks scrap their dividend payments until they have repaid £9bn in preference shares. This mesure will result in the UK banks being some of the best capitalised in Europe. Other countries will follow according Gordon Brown's government.
