RBS deal to exclude Indian ops
CIMB Group, which recently bought some of The Royal Bank of Scotland's (RBS) operations in Asia, says that the Indian operations will now be excluded from the deal.

The Indian operations comprise cash equities, equity capital markets and merger and acquisition corporate finance businesses. Despite the setback, CIMB said it remained committed to having an Indian component to its Asia-Pacific investment banking platform. CIMB in April agreed to buy most of RBS' cash equities and associated investment banking businesses in the Asia Pacific, including India at a cost of STG173.9mil (RM849.4mil).
