Explanation

At its peak in early 2009, RBS employed approximately 219,000 people worldwide. The bank's workforce had grown significantly through aggressive expansion and acquisitions, particularly the ABN AMRO deal. Following the 2008 financial crisis and UK government bailout, RBS underwent massive restructuring and workforce reductions, cutting staff by more than two-thirds over subsequent years.
