RBS Holdings N.V. - 2010 Interim Results

UNAUDITED

Highlights

RBS Holdings N.V. reports a loss from continuing operations for the first half of 2010 of EUR 541 million, compared with a loss of EUR 2,823 million in the first half of 2009

Key points

The first half of 2010 was marked by the legal separation of the Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank from the residual RBS acquired businesses on 1 April 2010.

Net Interest Income decreased in the first half of 2010 principally reflecting the significant changes in the structure of the balance sheet following transfers of businesses to The Royal Bank of Scotland plc in the course of 2009.

Non–interest income increased significantly from the loss reported in the first half of 2009 predominantly due to improvements in net trading income, where the business did not experience the large losses on trading counterparties as seen in first half of 2009. In addition, the Core businesses’ operating profit improved, which was largely due to progress in Global Banking & Markets mainly attributable to movements in credit spreads on a portfolio of credit default swaps, in comparison to high losses in the prior period.

Non-Core’s run-off programme remains on track, with sales of businesses in Latin America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East agreed in 2010.

Loan impairments were lower for the half year ended June 2010 due to lower specific commercial and retail provisions in comparison to large specific provisions that were made in the first half of 2009.

Total equity at 30 June 2010 was EUR 4.3 billion, a decrease of EUR 14.6 billion compared to 31 December 2009. Share premium and retained earnings decreased as a result of dividend distributions by RBS Holdings N.V. to RFS Holdings for the benefit of Santander and the Dutch State.

Discontinued operations recorded a EUR 950 million profit after tax mainly attributable to the gain on the sale of the Dutch State acquired businesses, compared with a EUR 176 million profit after tax for the prior year period.

Operating and financial review

General information

RBS Holdings N.V. was formerly named ABN AMRO Holding N.V. until it changed its name to RBS Holdings N.V. on 1 April 2010 as part of the legal separation of the Dutch State acquired businesses. RBS Holdings N.V. Group is an international banking group offering a wide range of banking products and financial services on a global basis.

On 17 October 2007 RFS Holdings B.V. (‘RFS Holdings’), a company incorporated in the Netherlands by The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc (‘RBS Group’), Fortis N.V., Fortis SA/N.V. (‘Fortis’) and Banco Santander SA (‘Santander’), (the ‘consortium members’) acquired 85.6% of ABN AMRO Holding N.V. After the acquisition, ABN AMRO Holding N.V. applied for de-listing of its ordinary shares from Euronext Amsterdam and the New York Stock Exchange. Through subsequent purchases RFS Holdings increased its stake in ABN AMRO Holding N.V. to 99.3% as at 31 December 2007. The de-listing of the ABN AMRO Holding N.V. ordinary shares and the (formerly convertible) preference shares with a nominal value of EUR 2.24 each, from Euronext Amsterdam and the de-listing of its American Depositary Shares (‘ADSs’) from the New York Stock Exchange were both effected on 25 April 2008. RFS Holdings started squeeze-out proceedings in order to acquire the remainder of the shares in ABN AMRO Holding N.V. from minority shareholders and this procedure was completed on 22 September 2008. As a result, in 2008 RFS Holdings became the sole shareholder of ABN AMRO Holding N.V.

On 3 October 2008, the Dutch State acquired all Fortis’ businesses in The Netherlands, including the Fortis share in RFS Holdings. On 21 November 2008, the Dutch State announced its intention to integrate the Dutch State acquired businesses of ABN AMRO Holding N.V. with Fortis Bank (Nederland) N.V. after completion of the legal demerger and legal separation processes, discussed within this report. On 24 December 2008, the Dutch State purchased from Fortis Bank Nederland (Holding) N.V. its investment in RFS Holdings, to become a direct shareholder in RFS Holdings.

RFS Holdings is controlled by RBS Group, which is incorporated in the UK and registered at 36 St. Andrew Square, Edinburgh, Scotland. RBS Group is the ultimate parent company of RBS Holdings N.V. The consolidated financial statements of RBS Holdings N.V. are included in the consolidated financial statements of RBS Group.

The financial information contained in the interim report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting, which varies in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or ‘US GAAP’.

Update on separation activity

On 6 February 2010 ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (as it was then named) successfully executed the deed of demerger in accordance with the demerger proposal filed with the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce on 30 September 2009, thereby demerging the majority of the Dutch State acquired businesses into a new legal entity, ABN AMRO II N.V. Additionally, as part of the overall separation process, some subsidiaries and assets and liabilities were separately transferred to the new legal entity ahead of the execution of the legal demerger. Some further assets and liabilities were separately transferred to the new legal entity at the time of the legal demerger.

RBS Holdings N.V. - 2010 Interim Results

UNAUDITED

Operating and financial review (continued)

Effective at the same date, the existing legal entity ABN AMRO Bank N.V., from which the Dutch State acquired businesses were demerged, was renamed RBS N.V. and the legal entity into which the Dutch State acquired businesses were demerged was also renamed, from ABN AMRO II N.V. to ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (‘new ABN AMRO Bank’). RBS N.V. and new ABN AMRO Bank were wholly owned by RBS Holdings N.V. until legal separation on 1 April 2010.

Immediately before legal separation on 1 April 2010 RBS Holdings N.V. made a dividend distribution to RFS Holdings of EUR 1.5 billion for the benefit of Santander. After this payment, the indirect interest of Santander has decreased to its share in the remaining Shared Assets.

Legal separation of ABN AMRO Bank N.V. occurred on 1 April 2010, with the shares in that entity being transferred by RBS Holdings N.V. to a holding company called ABN AMRO Group N.V., a newly incorporated entity owned by the Dutch State. Some assets and liabilities of the Dutch State acquired businesses could not be transferred to the new ABN AMRO Bank N.V. before legal separation and therefore remain temporarily in RBS N.V. Assets represent 0.26% of RBS Holdings N.V.’s assets as at 30 June 2010.

As at 30 June 2010, the remaining assets and liabilities in RBS N.V. that have not yet been sold, wound down or alternatively transferred by the consortium members, the so-called ‘Shared Assets’, in which each of the consortium shareholders has a joint and indirect interest represent 0.34% of RBS Holdings N.V.’s assets as at 30 June 2010.

Following the legal separation, RBS Holdings N.V. has one direct subsidiary, RBS N.V., a fully operational bank within the RBS Group. RBS N.V. is independently rated and regulated by the Dutch Central Bank. As announced on 1 April 2010, RBS N.V. has appointed new Supervisory and Managing Boards. RBS Holdings N.V. is governed by the same boards.

Organisational structure

Following the successful demerger of the majority of the Dutch State acquired businesses into the new ABN AMRO Bank, the Dutch State acquired businesses are classified as discontinued operations and no longer represent a separate segment. Profits from discontinued operations include the related operating results and the gain on sale. The comparative income statement figures for the year 2009 have been restated. Any remaining Dutch State acquired assets and liabilities are presented as assets and liabilities of businesses held for sale as at 30 June 2010. Comparative balance sheet figures have not been restated.

To reflect the focus of and the governance created by the Managing Board on the RBS acquired businesses, RBS Holdings N.V. comprises four reportable segments, namely Global Banking & Markets (‘GBM’), Global Transactional Services (‘GTS’) and Central Items, together the ‘Core’ segments, and the Non-Core segment.

The GBM segment represents the business providing an extensive range of debt and equity financing, risk management and investment services as a leading banking partner to major corporations and financial institutions around the world. The GBM business within RBS Holdings N.V. is organised along four principal business lines: Global Lending, Equities, Short Term Markets & Funding and Local Markets.

RBS Holdings N.V. - 2010 Interim Results

UNAUDITED

Operating and financial review (continued)

GTS provides global transaction services, offering Global Trade Finance, Transaction Banking and International Cash Management.

The Central Items segment includes group and corporate functions, such as treasury, capital management and finance, risk management, legal, communications and human resources. Central Items manages RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s capital resources, statutory and regulatory obligations and provides services to the branch network.

The Non-Core segment contains a range of businesses and asset portfolios managed separately that RBS Holdings N.V. Group intends to run off or dispose of, in line with RBS Group strategy for Non-Core assets. It also includes the remaining assets and liabilities in RBS N.V. that have not yet been sold, wound down or alternatively transferred by the consortium members, the so-called ‘Shared Assets’, in which each of the consortium shareholders has a joint and indirect interest.

RBS strategic review

As part of their annual results release on 26 February 2009, RBS Group outlined further updates to its strategic restructuring plan, initially announced in RBS Group’s 2008 annual results. RBS Holdings N.V. has been restructured into Core and Non-Core components. RBS Group expects to substantially run down or dispose of the businesses, assets and portfolios within the Non-Core division by 2013 and has announced the sales of businesses in Latin America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

EC remedy

On 26 November 2009, RBS Group entered into a State Aid Commitment Deed with HM Treasury of the United Kingdom government, containing commitments and undertakings given by RBS Group to HM Treasury that are designed to ensure that HM Treasury is able to comply with the commitments given by it to the European Commission for the purpose of obtaining approval for the State aid provided to RBS Group. As part of these commitments, RBS Group agreed that RBS Holdings N.V. will not pay investors any coupons on, or exercise any call rights in relation to, the hybrid capital instruments issued by RBS N.V. listed below, unless in any such case there is a legal obligation to do so, for an effective period of two years. RBS Holdings N.V. Group is also subject to restrictions on the exercise of call rights in relation to its other hybrid capital instruments.

(1) The first half of 2009 has been restated for the classification of the Dutch state acquired businesses as discontinued operations.

Total income

Total income was EUR 1,598 million compared with a loss of EUR 153 million in the first half of 2009.

Net interest income

Net interest income decreased by EUR 327 million, principally reflecting the significant changes in the structure of the balance sheet following transfers of businesses to The Royal Bank of Scotland plc (‘RBS plc’) in the course of 2009, including the transfer of conduit portfolios. In addition, net interest income was impacted by the overall interest margin pressure.

Net fee and commission income

Net fee and commission income has decreased by EUR 200 million. The decrease in income is due to reduced business origination and activity following transfers of businesses to RBS plc.

Net trading income

The increase in net trading income of EUR 603 million, mainly relates to the non reoccurrence of high losses on counterparty Credit Valuation Adjustments (‘CVA’) of EUR 1,048 million in the prior year against monoline insurers and a gain in the first half of 2010 of EUR 88 million against other parties. Additionally, write-offs on Collateralised Debt Obligations (‘CDO’) in the first half of 2010 were EUR 231 million lower. Exposures to monoline insurers and CDOs were substantially risk transferred to RBS plc in the first half of 2009.

RBS Holdings N.V. - 2010 Interim Results

UNAUDITED

Operating and financial review (continued)

Results of operations for the half year ended 30 June 2010 (continued)

The trading income was adversely affected by the favourable market conditions seen in the first half of 2009, specifically in Asia in the foreign exchange swaps and derivatives trading and in the Americas in the currency trading in emerging market government bonds and options.

Results from financial transactions

The increase in gains from financial transactions of EUR 1,836 million is mainly attributable to non reoccurrence of the fair value losses on a portfolio of credit default swaps, used to hedge the loan book following the tightening of the credit spreads in the first half of 2009. Additionally, 2009 saw significant losses on sales and transfers of the credit and loan portfolios, as well as losses arising from tightening of own credit spreads impacting fair valued liabilities.

Other income

Other income decreased by EUR 161 million to a loss of EUR 115 million reflecting higher Non Core business disposal losses. This was largely due to losses on the sale of businesses in Latin America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses decreased by EUR 461 million compared to the prior period. This reflects the transfer of business to RBS plc, thus reducing the scale of operations within RBS Holdings N.V. and the 2009 charges related to costs incurred on the sale of businesses in Asia and the related goodwill impairments.

Loan impairment and other credit risk provisions

Loan impairments in the first half of 2010 amounted to EUR 224 million as compared to EUR 1,113 million in the first half of 2009. Large specific provisions were made in the first half of 2009 reflecting the challenging credit environment. For the half year ended June 2010 there are lower specific commercial and retail provisions, especially on consumer and card lending in Asia and Middle East. For the half year ended June 2010, loan impairments include a benefit of EUR 174 million of loss compensation from the asset protection scheme (‘APS’) back-to-back agreement with RBS plc, entered into at the end of 2009.

Profit from discontinued operations

Discontinued operations recorded a EUR 950 million profit after tax compared with a EUR 176 million profit after tax for the prior year period. The results from discontinued operations are mainly attributable to the gain on the sale by RBS Holdings N.V. on 1 April 2010, of Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank.

Operating profit/(loss) before tax		206			(677	)

Operating profit before tax was EUR 206 million compared with a loss of EUR 677 million in the first half of 2009.

Total income

Total income increased by EUR 612 million to EUR 1,218 million. The improvement is mainly due to increased gains from financial transactions of EUR 1,542 million. This is partially offset by a reduction in interest income, net fee and commission income and trading income reflecting transfers of business to RBS plc as well as unfavourable market conditions.

Net interest income

Net interest income decreased by EUR 187 million, as a result of a sharp fall in money markets revenue in comparison to the comparative period, which benefited from rapidly falling short term interest rates which generated exceptional revenue opportunities.

Non-interest income

Non-interest income increased by EUR 799 million to EUR 997 million. The improvement reflects increased gains from financial transactions of EUR 1,542 million. This is mainly attributable to movements in credit spreads, compared to the prior year when fair value losses were recognised on a portfolio of credit default swaps used to hedge the loan book following tightening of credit spreads. In addition, own credit gains increased by EUR 168 million on the prior period (of which EUR 30 million was realised) and the first half of 2009 saw significant losses on the sale of portfolios to RBS plc.

UNAUDITED

Operating and financial review (continued)

Results of operations for the half year ended 30 June 2010 by segment (continued)

Non-interest income (continued)

The improvement in gains from financial transactions is partly offset by a EUR 563 million decrease in net trading income as a result of the absence of the favourable market conditions as they prevailed in the first half of 2009, specifically in Asia in the foreign exchange swaps and derivatives trading and in the Americas in the currency trading in emerging market government bonds and options. It is also offset by a decrease of EUR 160 million in net fee and commission income which is due to reduced business origination and activity resulting in lower brokerage fees following transfers of business to RBS plc, specifically the Debt Capital Markets Business. In addition, the decrease is due to a weaker performance in the first half of 2010 in the UK equities market.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses have decreased by EUR 196 million from EUR 1,114 million for the first half of 2009. This reflects the transfer of business to RBS plc, thus reducing the scale of operations in 2010.

Loan impairments

Loan impairments in the first half of 2010 amounted to EUR 94 million in comparison to EUR 169 million in the same period in 2009. 2010 impairments reflect a small number of single name provisions.

Operating (loss)/profit before tax		(3	)		68

Operating loss before tax was EUR 3 million, a decrease of EUR 71 million from the prior period.

Total income

Total income decreased by EUR 70 million to EUR 299 million. This is mainly due to a decrease in net interest income and net fee and commission income.

Net interest income

Net interest income decreased by EUR 30 million following transfers of businesses to RBS plc in the course of 2009 and lower interest margins from transactions in Asia and Eastern Europe in 2010.

Non-interest income

The fall in non-interest income relates to the decrease in net fee and commission income in the Netherlands, due to client attrition in the second half of 2009, as well as in Asia due to lower margins on trade settlement products as the risk profile of the region improved.

Operating expense

Operating expenses have increased by EUR 9 million from EUR 293 million for the first half of 2009, reflecting a slight headcount increase compared to the prior period due to global network staff reallocations.

Total income

Total income increased by EUR 284 million to a loss of EUR 70 million. This is mainly due to improvements in net interest and net fee and commission results.

Net interest income

Net interest income improved by EUR 137 million due to lower term funding requirements reflecting a reduction in the balance sheet following transfers of business to RBS plc.

Non-interest income

The increase in non-interest income relates to an improvement in net fee and commission income, which is due to the reduction in volume of treasury related activities over the course of 2009. This is offset by a decrease of results from financial transactions due to losses on the sales of Spanish, Greek and Portuguese bonds.

Operating expense

Operating expenses have increased by EUR 52 million to EUR 214 million for the first half of 2010. This is mainly attributable to a bonus tax top up relating to 2009, due to a change in legislation effective in 2010.

Operating loss before tax		(394	)		(2,451	)

Operating loss before tax was EUR 394 million compared with a loss of EUR 2,451 million in the first half of 2009.

Total income

Total income increased by EUR 925 million to EUR 151 million. This is due to an increase in net trading income of EUR 1,169 million and an increase in results from financial transactions of EUR 312 million, which is partly offset by a decrease in net interest income and in other income.

Net interest income

Net interest income decreased by EUR 247 million. This reflects the significant changes in the composition of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet following the disposal of businesses in Asia and Latin America and transfers of businesses to RBS plc in the course of 2009, including the transfer of multi-seller conduit portfolios. In addition, interest income was impacted by the overall interest margin pressure.

Non-interest income

The improvement in the non-interest result relates to the increase in net trading income, which is due to the non reoccurrence of high losses in the prior year on counterparty CVA against monoline insurers following transfers of the positions to RBS plc. The loss from financial transactions includes mark to market gains of EUR 111 million on the credit default swap entered into with RBS plc in December 2009 as part of the APS back-to-back agreement as well as an improvement of EUR 171 million on the result of CDS hedges.

Operating and financial review (continued)

Results of operations for the half year ended 30 June 2010 by segment (continued)

Non-interest income (continued)

This is partly offset by a decrease in other income of EUR 189 million reflecting higher business disposal losses. This was largely due to losses on the sale of businesses in Latin America, Asia, Europe and the Middle East. In addition, net fee and commission income decreased by EUR 120 million largely due to the fee payable for the APS back-to-back agreement in 2010.

Operating expense

Operating expenses have decreased by EUR 326 million from EUR 741 million for the first half of 2009. This results mainly from the 2009 charges related to costs incurred on the sale of businesses in Asia and the related goodwill impairments.

Loan impairments

Loan impairments in the first half of 2010 amounted to EUR 130 million, as compared to EUR 936 million in the first half of 2009. Large specific provisions were made in the first half of 2009 reflecting the challenging credit environment. For the half year ended June 2010, there are lower specific commercial and retail provisions, especially on consumer and card lending in Asia and Middle East. For the half year ended June 2010, loan impairments include a benefit of EUR 174 million of loss compensation from the asset protection scheme (‘APS’) back-to-back agreement with RBS plc, entered into by the end of 2009.

Operating and financial review (continued)

Total assets

RBS Holdings N.V.’s total assets amounted to EUR 241.4 billion as at 30 June 2010, a decrease of EUR 227.9 billion since December 2009. The decrease in the balance sheet categories Loans and advances to customers and Other assets is mostly due to the sale of Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank on 1 April 2010.

Cash and balances at central banks

Cash and balances at central banks has decreased due to a reduction in surplus cash balances held at central banks and other liquid assets, which had been built up as a prudent measure ahead of the legal separation of the Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank on 1 April 2010. Following successful separation, the liquid assets and associated short-term wholesale funding were managed down to business as usual levels.

Financial assets held for trading

The decrease in financial assets held for trading of EUR 9.6 billion is partly attributable to the sale of Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank, the novation to RBS plc of derivative financial instruments and the lower volume of over the counter traded derivatives.

Financial investments

The decrease in financial investments of EUR 21.5 billion reflects the sale of Dutch State acquired businesses as well as a decrease in the fair value of government securities.

Loans and advances to banks

Loans and advances to banks decreased by EUR 14.9 billion to EUR 24.8 billion at 30 June 2010 compared to the balance of EUR 39.7 billion at 31 December 2009. This decrease is predominantly attributable to a decrease in time deposits placed of EUR 7.5 billion due to a dividend settlement with Santander, as well as the sale of Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank.

Total liabilities

The balance sheet categories Financial liabilities held for trading, Due to banks, Due to customers, Issued debt securities, Subordinated liabilities, Provisions and Other liabilities have significantly decreased due to the sale of Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank N.V. on 1 April 2010.

Equity

Total equity at 30 June 2010 was EUR 4.3 billion, a decrease of EUR 14.6 billion compared to 31 December 2009. This was mainly due to a decrease in share premium and retained earnings as a result of the EUR 9.0 billion dividend distributions by RBS Holdings N.V. to RFS Holdings for the benefit of Santander, coupled with a EUR 6.5 billion dividend distribution for the benefit of the Dutch State as part of the sale of the new ABN AMRO Bank on 1 April 2010. In addition, during the period EUR 1.2 billion in unrealised losses were recorded in other comprehensive income predominantly relating to available-for-sale debt securities. Cash flow hedging reserves improved by EUR 1.0 billion due to the realisation of reserves following the sale of the new ABN AMRO Bank. In order to capitalise the remaining shared assets and the remaining Dutch State acquired businesses, Santander and the Dutch state injected EUR 0.1 billion and EUR 0.3 billion, respectively in capital.

Participation in UK Government's Asset Protection Scheme

On 22 December 2009 RBS N.V. and RBS plc entered into two asset protection scheme back-to-back contracts in relation to the RBS N.V. Covered Assets (the Contracts) to de-risk future earnings. These agreements provide RBS N.V. with 100% protection over a specific portfolio of covered assets.

Fees of EUR 108 million for the APS back-to-back agreement where charged to income for the first half of 2010. This half year’s positive fair value change includes mark to market gains of EUR 111 million on the credit default swap. Loan impairments for the first six months reflect a benefit of EUR 174 million of loss compensation under the APS back-to-back agreement with RBS plc.

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements

1. Basis of preparation

RBS Holdings N.V.’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the half year ended 30 June 2010 are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the RBS Holdings N.V.’s (formerly ABN AMRO Holding N.V.) audited financial statements as part of the Annual Report for the year 2009, which was prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’) and IFRS as adopted by the European Union (‘EU’).

The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all relevant disclosures necessary for an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of RBS Holdings N.V. since the end of the last annual reporting period have been made.

The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in euros, which is the functional and presentation currency of RBS Holdings N.V., rounded to the nearest million.

Certain amounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current presentations. These amounts include the restatement for the classification of the Dutch State acquired businesses as discontinued operations. Comparative segment figures have been restated to reflect the current organisation structure.

2. Accounting policies

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009, as described in those annual financial statements. Adoption of amendments to the following Standards and Interpretations applicable to this accounting period did not have an impact on the accounting policies, financial position or performance of RBS Holdings N.V. Group.

RBS Holdings N.V. has adopted the revised IFRS 3 Business Combinations and related revisions to IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements issued in January 2008 and also The International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee’s (IFRIC) interpretation IFRIC 17 ‘Distributions of Non-Cash Assets to Owners’ and the IASB’s consequential amendments to IFRS 5 ‘Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’ issued in December 2008. They apply to transactions on or after 1 January 2010 and have not resulted in the restatement of previously published financial information. There have been no material acquisitions in the period and no disposals have been affected. In accordance with IFRS 5, before and after the amendment, the Dutch retail and other banking businesses that were transferred to the Dutch State on 1 April 2010 have been recognised as discontinued operations with consequent changes to the presentation of comparative financial information.

RBS Holdings N.V. - 2010 Interim Results

UNAUDITED

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements (continued)

There are a number of other changes to IFRS that were effective from 1 January 2010. They have had no material effect on RBS Holdings N.V.

The IASB issued an amendment, ‘Group Cash-settled Share-based Payment Transactions‘, to IFRS 2 ‘Share-based Payment’ in June 2009 that will change the accounting for share awards by permitting accounting for equity settlement only by entities that either grant awards over their own equity or have no obligation to settle a share-based payment transaction. The amendment is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010 and did not have an effect on RBS Holdings N.V.

The IASB published an amendment ‘Classification of Rights Issues’ to IAS 32 ‘Financial Instruments: Presentation’ and consequential revisions to other standards in October 2009 to improve the accounting for issues of equity for consideration fixed other than in the reporting entity’s functional currency. The amendment is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 February 2010. It did not have an effect on RBS Holdings N.V.

April 2009 Annual Improvements to IFRS – making non-urgent but necessary amendments to standards, primarily to remove inconsistencies and to clarify wording; IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement - limited changes to IAS 39 issued in July 2008 clarifying that (a) a one-sided risk can be designated as a hedged risk, i.e. an option can be used to hedge a risk above or below a specified threshold and (b) inflation can be a hedged risk but only if the cash flows include a specified inflation portion. The amendments did not have a material effect on RBS Holdings N.V.

Recent developments in IFRS

The IASB reissued IAS 24, ‘Related Party Disclosures’, in November 2009 clarifying the existing standard and to provide certain exemptions for entities under government control. The revised standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.

The IASB issued IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ in November 2009 simplifying the classification and measurement requirements in IAS 39 ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ in respect of financial assets. This standard makes major changes to the framework for the classification and measurement of financial assets and will have a significant effect on RBS Holdings N.V.’s financial statements. The RBS Holdings N.V. Group is assessing this impact which also depends on the outcome of the other phases of IASB’s IAS 39 replacement project.

The IFRIC issued interpretation IFRIC 19 ‘Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments’ in December 2009. The interpretation clarifies that the profit or loss on extinguishing liabilities by issuing equity instruments should be measured by reference to fair value, preferably of the equity instruments. The interpretation, effective for RBS Holdings N.V.’s annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011, is not expected to have a material effect on RBS Holdings N.V.

6. Tax

The effective tax rate on operating income from continuing operations for the first half of 2010 is negative 13.9% (half year ended 31 December 2009: 9.6%). The increase in tax assets is mainly due to deferred tax recoveries relating to trading losses recorded in the UK and other comprehensive income losses on available-for-sale interest earning securities.

7. Segmental analysis

Segment information is presented in respect of RBS Holdings N.V.’s business. The operating segments are consistent with RBS Holdings N.V.’s management and internal reporting structure applicable in the financial year. The segment measure is Operating profit/(loss) before tax.

Following the successful demerger of the majority of the Dutch State acquired businesses into the new ABN AMRO Bank, the Dutch State acquired businesses are classified as discontinued operations and no longer represent a separate segment. Profits from discontinued operations include the related operating results and the gain on sale. The comparative income statement figures for the year 2009 have been restated. Any remaining Dutch State acquired assets and liabilities are presented as assets and liabilities held for sale as at 30 June 2010. Comparative balance sheet figures have not been restated.

Measurement of segment assets, liabilities, income and expenses is based on RBS Holdings N.V.’s accounting policies. Segment assets, liabilities, income and expenses include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Transactions between segments are conducted at arm’s length.

To reflect the focus of and the governance created by the Managing Board on the residual RBS acquired businesses, RBS Holdings N.V. comprises four reportable segments, namely Global Banking & Markets (‘GBM’), Global Transactional Services (‘GTS’) and Central Items, together the ‘Core’ segments, and the Non-Core segment.

The GBM segment represents the business providing an extensive range of debt and equity financing, risk management and investment services to major corporations and financial institutions around the world. The GBM business within RBS Holdings N.V. offers four principal products: Global Lending, Equities, Short Term Markets & Funding and Local Markets.

GTS provides global transaction services, offering Global Trade Finance, Transaction Banking and International Cash Management.

The Non-Core segment contains a range of businesses and asset portfolios managed separately and that RBS Holdings N.V. Group intends to run off or dispose of in line with RBS Group strategy for Non-Core assets. It also includes the remaining assets and liabilities in RBS N.V. that have not yet been sold, wound down or alternatively transferred by the consortium members, the so-called ‘Shared Assets’, in which each of the consortium shareholders has a joint and indirect interest (assets represent 0.34% of RBS Holdings N.V.’s assets as at 30 June 2010).

During the period, dividends of EUR 15,534 million were distributed to the shareholders of RFS Holdings, reducing the share premium account and other reserves by EUR 10,671 millions and EUR 4,863 million respectively. On 5 February 2010 RBS Holdings N.V. made a dividend distribution of EUR 7.5 billion to RFS Holdings, for the benefit of Santander. Immediately before legal separation on 1 April 2010 RBS Holdings N.V. made a further dividend distribution of EUR 1.5 billion for the benefit of Santander, and then again for the benefit of Santander, on 30 June 2010 a dividend of EUR 15 million was paid. As part of the sale of the new ABN AMRO Bank N.V. on 1 April 2010, RBS Holdings N.V. made a EUR 6.5 billion dividend distribution to RFS Holdings, for the benefit of the Dutch State. After these distributions, the indirect interest of Santander has decreased to its share in the remaining Shared Assets. The Dutch State interest in RBS Holdings N.V. comprises its share in the remaining Shared Assets as well as some assets and liabilities which could not be transferred to the new ABN AMRO Bank before legal separation.

9. Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations

Profits from discontinued operations include the related operating results and when sold, the applicable gain on sale.

Following the successful demerger of the majority of the Dutch State acquired businesses into the new ABN AMRO Bank on 6 February 2010, these businesses met the IFRS requirements of a disposal group held for sale. Legal separation of the new ABN AMRO Bank occurred on 1 April 2010 through a sale of the shares in that entity by RBS Holdings N.V. to a holding company called ABN AMRO Group N.V., a newly incorporated entity owned by the Dutch State. This disposal group represented a major line of business and therefore results for the period are presented as results from discontinued operations as a single line item in the consolidated income statement with prior period amounts restated.

13. Litigation

RBS Holdings N.V. is involved in a number of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business in a number of jurisdictions. In presenting its condensed consolidated financial statements, management of RBS Holdings N.V. makes estimates regarding the outcome of legal, regulatory and arbitration matters, and takes a charge to income when losses with respect to such matters are probable. Charges, other than those taken periodically for costs of defence, are not established for matters when losses cannot be reasonably estimated.

Other than as set out below, so far as RBS Holdings N.V. is aware, RBS Holdings N.V. has not been engaged in or does not have pending or threatened any governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings, which may have or have had in the recent past (covering the 12 months immediately preceding the date of this document) a significant effect on its financial position or profitability.

World Online International N.V.

In November 2009, the Supreme Court in the Netherlands gave a declaratory judgement against World Online International N.V., Goldman Sachs International and ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (now known as The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V.) in relation to claims arising out of the World Online initial public offering of 2000. It held that these defendants had committed certain wrongful acts in connection with the initial public offering. The judgement does not establish liability or the amount of any loss.

On the basis of information currently available, management is of the opinion that the outcome of the proceedings that RBS N.V. is involved in is unlikely to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of RBS Holdings N.V.

Final settlement reached with United States Department of Justice

In May 2010, following a criminal investigation by the United States Department of Justice (‘DoJ’) into RBS N.V.’s dollar clearing activities, Office of Foreign Assets Control compliance procedures and other Bank Secrecy Act compliance matters, RBS N.V. (formerly ABN AMRO Bank N.V.) formally entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement (‘DPA’) with the DoJ resolving the investigation. The investigation was in relation to activities before the Consortium Members acquired RBS Holdings N.V. including its subsidiary RBS N.V. The agreement was signed by RBS N.V. and is binding on that entity and its subsidiaries.

Pursuant to the DPA, RBS N.V. paid a penalty of US $500 million and agreed that it will comply with the terms of the DPA and continue to fully cooperate with any further investigations. Payment of the penalty was covered by a provision established in April 2007 when an agreement in principle to settle was first announced. Upon satisfaction of the conditions of the DPA for the period of 12 months from May 2010, the matter will be fully resolved. Failure to comply with the terms of the DPA during the 12 month period could result in the DoJ recommencing its investigations, the outcome of which would be uncertain and could result in public censure and fines or have an adverse impact upon RBS Holdings N.V.’s operations, any of which could have material adverse impact on its business, reputation, results of operation and financial condition.

14. Related party transactions

RBS Holdings N.V. has a related party relationship with associates, joint ventures, key management and shareholders of its parent company, RFS Holdings.

The UK government through HM Treasury is the majority shareholder of RBS Group, the ultimate consolidating parent of RBS Holdings N.V. The Dutch State is one of the shareholders of RBS Holdings N.V.’s parent company, RFS Holdings. As a result both the UK government and the Dutch State are related parties of RBS Holdings N.V. RBS Holdings N.V. Group enters into transactions with these and other related parties on an arms’ length basis.

Related party transactions in the half year ended 30 June 2010 were similar in nature to those for the year ended 31 December 2009. Full details of the RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s related party transactions for the year ended 31 December 2009 are included in RBS Holdings N.V.’s 2009 Annual Report.

15. Subsequent events

There were no subsequent events of any material significance after 30 June 2010.

16. Date of approval

The results for the half year ended 30 June 2010 were approved by the Managing Board on 30 August 2010.

In the section ‘Risk factors’, included in the RBS Holdings N.V.’s 2009 Annual Report are certain risk factors which could affect RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s future results and cause them to be materially different from expected results. These risk factors are hereby incorporated by reference into this report. RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s results are also affected by competition and other factors. The factors discussed in this report and in the RBS Holdings N.V.’s 2009 Annual Report should not be regarded as a complete and comprehensive statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. In addition to the risk factors included in the RBS Holdings N.V.’s 2009 Annual Report, we consider the following to be the principal risks and uncertainties for RBS Holdings N.V. Group in the second half of 2010:

The RBS Holdings N.V. Group may be required to make further contributions to its pension schemes if the value of pension fund assets is not sufficient to cover potential obligations.

Pensions risk is the risk that liabilities of RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s various defined benefit pension schemes which are long-term in nature will exceed the schemes’ assets, as a result of which RBS Holdings N.V. Group is required or chooses to make additional contributions to the schemes. Given the current economic and financial market difficulties and the prospect that they may continue over the near and medium term, the RBS Holdings N.V. Group may experience pension deficits or be required or elect to make further contributions to its pension schemes and such deficits and contributions could be significant.

RBS Holdings N.V. Group is subject to enforcement risks relating to the United States Department of Justice’s criminal investigation of its dollar clearing activities

Although the final amount agreed with the United States Department of Justice (DoJ) regarding a criminal investigation into RBS Holdings N.V. Group's dollar clearing activities, Office of Foreign Assets Control compliance procedures and other Bank Secrecy Act compliance matters is covered by an earlier estimate made by RBS N.V. (formerly ABN AMRO Bank N.V.) regarding the costs of resolving the investigation, the deferral period for further investigations pursuant to the Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) signed in that regard is 12 months. RBS Holdings N.V. Group will comply with the terms of the DPA and continue to fully cooperate with any further investigations. However, failure to comply with the terms of the DPA during the 12 month period could result in the DoJ recommencing its investigations, the outcome of which would be uncertain and could result in public censure and fines or have an adverse impact upon RBS Holdings N.V. Group's operations, any of which could have a material adverse impact on its business, reputation, results of operation and financial condition.

The extensive organisational restructuring may adversely affect the RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

As part of RBS Holdings N.V. Groups refocus on core strengths and its disposal programme, RBS Holdings N.V. Group has undertaken and continues to undertake extensive organisational restructuring involving the allocation of assets identified as non-core assets to a separate Non-Core Division, and the run-down and sale of those assets over a period of time. As a result of these activities, RBS Holdings N.V. Group may experience a high degree of business interruption, significant restructuring charges, delays in implementation, and significant strain on management, employee, operational and financial resources. Any of these factors could affect RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s ability to achieve its strategic objectives and have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

Financial Investments

RBS Holdings N.V. holds EUR 52.2 billion of financial investments as available-for-sale, the majority of which forms part of the Asset & Liability Management (‘ALM’) liquidity buffer. Of the portfolio, EUR 28.7 billion is OECD government issued debt, comprising exposures to European (EUR 22.8 billion) and US (EUR 5.5 billion) governments and government-related entities. Included therein are EUR 1.1 billion Greek sovereign debt instruments (unrealised losses amounted to EUR 602 million, net of tax).

Further positions in financial investments comprise EUR 18.8 billion of mortgage and other asset-backed securities which are eligible as collateral at central banks. The composition of this portfolio has not changed substantially from 31 December 2009 as disclosed on page 41 of the RBS Holdings N.V. (formerly ABN AMRO Holding N.V.) 2009 annual report as part of the disclosure ‘Credit market and related exposures’. Included therein are EUR 7.1 billion residential mortgage-backed securities covered by the Dutch mortgage guarantee scheme and EUR 9.3 billion residential mortgage covered bonds the majority of which originated in Spain.

Unrealised losses net of tax, on available-for-sale debt securities amounted to EUR 2,248 in June 2010 (31 December 2009: EUR 1,059 million)

Market Risk

There have been no material changes to market risk in the trading book as disclosed in RBS Holdings N.V.’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2009, that may materially affect the RBS Holdings N.V. Group’s business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Interest rate risk, one of the principal market risks in the non-trading book, is reduced following the sale of Dutch State acquired businesses included in the new ABN AMRO Bank on 1 April 2010.

Funding and liquidity

RBS Holdings N.V.’s liquidity policy is designed to ensure that at all times RBS Holdings N.V. can meet its obligations as they fall due. Liquidity management within RBS Holdings N.V. addresses the overall balance sheet structure and the control, within prudent limits, of risk arising from the mismatch of maturities across the balance sheet and from the exposure to undrawn commitments and other contingent obligations.

Central Liquidity reserves

The table below shows the breakdown of liquid assets held by RBS Holdings N.V.

		37,488		55,896

(1)	Balances as at 31 December 2009 include RBS acquired businesses only.

(2)	Includes secured assets which are eligible for discounting at central banks.

Key Points

Cash and central bank balances were lower due to a reduction in surplus cash balances held at central banks and other liquid assets, which had been built up as a prudent measure ahead of the legal separation of the new ABN AMRO Bank on 1 April 2010. Following successful separation, the liquid assets and associated short-term wholesale funding were managed down to business as usual levels.

·	The increase in Government securities is caused by the release of collateral previously pledged with market counterparties.

Repo agreements

At 30 June 2010, RBS Holdings N.V. had EUR 7,681 million (31 December 2009: EUR 9,209 million) of customer secured funding and EUR 3,672 million (31 December 2009: EUR 6,361 million) of bank secured funding, which included borrowing using central bank funding schemes. With markets continuing to stabilize through the first half of 2010, RBS Holdings N.V. has reduced its reliance on secured funding from central bank liquidity schemes.
