RBS NV - Deferred Prosecution Agreement Dismissed
In May 2010, the United States Department of Justice (DoJ) and the Consortium that acquired ABN AMRO Group in 2007 agreed to a Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) relating to the previously disclosed criminal investigation into ABN AMRO Bank NV's US dollar clearing activities, OFAC compliance procedures, and Bank Secrecy Act compliance matters during the period from 1995 to the end of 2007. ABN AMRO Bank NV was re-named RBS N.V. in February 2011.
On April 6, 2011, the U.S. District Court extended the duration of the DPA until December 31, 2011 to allow RBS N.V. more time to comply with its obligations. The U.S. District Court has on December 23, 2011, confirmed the dismissal of the DPA which terminates RBS N.V.'s obligations thereunder.
