LONDON: Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) has hired Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BoAML) to prepare a spin-off of scores of its Williams & Glyn-branded retail branches, the Sunday Telegraph reported. Without citing sources, the Telegraph said investment bankers would start meeting investors later this year to discuss the planned float of Williams & Glyn in 2016 which RBS hopes will value the new bank at 1.5 billion pounds ($2.31 billion). RBS was ordered to sell Williams & Glyn, which comprises 314 branches and is focused on lending to small businesses, by European regulators.
