A row over a confidential regulatory report into the activities of Royal Bank of Scotland’s restructuring division has descended into farce after Noel Edmonds claimed to have a copy.
The television presenter said on his website that he had “obtained” the secret Financial Conduct Authority review of the treatment of small and medium-sized companies by RBS’s Global Restructuring Group (GRG).
The 361-page document is the subject of a leak inquiry at the FCA, after the BBC published part of it last month.
