Banking Sector in Ireland: Ulster Bank

Mr. Andrew Blair:

No. Global restructuring in Ireland was run on an all-Ireland basis, just as Ulster Bank was run on an all Ireland basis during that period. The head of the global restructuring group in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland was the same person and reported to the chief executive of Ulster Bank group and to the chief executive of Global Restructuring group.
