RBS chief set to meet governor of Central Bank

Royal Bank of Scotland CEO Stephen Hester will be in Dublin tomorrow to meet with Central Bank governor Patrick Honohan.

The meetings have been described as routine rather than having any strategic significance, according to a person familiar with the situation.

There is no formal agenda for the meeting between Mr Honohan and Mr Hester, but Ulster Bank’s technology difficulties last year, as well as its strategy for dealing with mortgage arrears, are likely to be discussed.
