The scheme involved traders from JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, RBS, Barclays and UBS.

密谋行为涉及摩根大通银行、花旗集团、苏格兰皇家银行、巴克莱银行以及瑞士银行的交易员。

A sale of RBS is some way off, he explained. This leisurely approach is mistaken.

奥斯本解释出售苏格兰皇家银行还有待时日。

The state has weighed in on the pay of senior staff of RBS and on its commercial strategy.

政府参与了苏格兰皇家银行高管薪酬及商业战略的制定。

In early June it shoved out RBS's boss Stephen Hester, prompting a sharp fall in the bank's shares.

六月初又辞退了CEO史蒂芬.赫斯特，导致其股价大跌。

The government would look foolish if shares in RBS and Lloyds were to rocket after the sale, delivering stupendous profits to their new owners.

如果政府出售苏格兰皇家银行和劳埃德银行股权后股价飞涨、后手股东赢取暴利，那政府可就傻眼了。

Almost five years later the state still holds an 81% stake in RBS and a 39% share in Lloyds—a position that feels increasingly awkward.

直到五年后的今天英国政府仍然分别控制着这两家银行81%和39%的股份。
