FTSE 100 boss: 'Scotland will prosper either way'
The Royal Bank of Scotland has confirmed it plans to move its headquarters to London if there's a YES vote in the Scottish referendum.
Martin Gilbert, Chief Executive of Aberdeen Asset Management, told Adam Parson on 5 live Breakfast "It is 82% owned by the UK government so it can't be a major surprise to anyone that it will relocate, but symbolically it's not a great thing."
He went on to say "I've always said I'm not telling anyone the way I'm going to vote but what I have said is that I think Scotland will prosper either way the vote goes."
