Bank mergers have become a common in a financial service industry and spurred a vast body of literature studying causes, consequences and implications for the future caused by this phenomenon. Overall, the evidence shows that the 1990s have had a tendency of greater economic benefits to the combined banks in comparison with the 1980s. This study attempts to investigate economic effects of the merger of the two largest UK banks occurred in 2000. As a result the new group has become the second largest financial structure globally. The study starts with a comprehensive literature review which covers all major studies of bank mergers beginning since 1980. This creates a base for the methodology part and comparison of obtained results. Authors use an event studies econometric analysis to investigate shareholders wealth effects caused by a merger. Short-run and long-run periods are analyzed. The results show that the merger was a right action undertaken by the management team of RBS. The work is heavily illustrated with tables and graphs. The computation files are also available upon request. This paper would be indispensable to those who study bank mergers and want to use modern techniques to uncover economic benefits resulting from takeovers.

C/HR/18. Analysis of Strategic HRM in NatWest

The aim of the following report is to critically assess and evaluate the stances of strategic human resource issues taking place at NatWest. The researcher intends to allocate the appropriate theory and frameworks in order to achieve the relevant degree of comprehensivity and depth during the course of the report. Furthermore, the researcher would like to assume that NatWest is considerably large organisation employing a significant number of people coming from different cultural and therefore national background (or visa versa). Hence, the assumption rests upon the possibility that the HR strategies recently developed by NatWest may require even further degree of flexibility in order to take into account the cultural diversity of its staff as well as of customers. The later group is of a particular importance for the company and HR strategies may need to be shaped around this issue. Therefore, the researcher may undertake rather unusual angles for the purposes of the analysis in one's intention to highlight the most important issues and fields.

In the last 15-20 years, the Banking sector in the UK has faced the need to reorganise. This has led to mergers and acquisitions. This dissertation investigates into the roots and causes of this ever-increasing consolidation activity and tries to critically evaluate mergers and acquisitions. The stakeholders are all an essential part of any company and the decision to merge should be acceptable to all stakeholders. Moreover, another aim of this dissertation is to study the expectations of the stakeholders of the banks in UK and the effect a merger or an acquisition has on them. Three stakeholders, namely, shareholders, employees and customers are studied in detail with the help of two case studies, one for a merger (merger of Lloyds TSB Group) and one for an acquisition (takeover of Natwest by Royal Bank of Scotland).
