Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis
Nexus Phase
Mr. Cormac McCarthy:
Well, I think firstly, the fact of a much bigger institution came into play, so you go from the First Active business, which is much smaller, to the combined First Active and Ulster Bank, so there's a scaling factor in that too. And then there was general growth in the market and benchmarking. I mean, one of those would be mine, and I never had any input into my remuneration; I never had any input into my incentive scheme. The Royal Bank of Scotland remuneration committee, in latter stages, prior to that, the First Active remuneration committee would have decided on my remuneration.
