NatWest Seeks Return to Full Private Ownership by July Amid Government Exit

NatWest is on track to return to full private ownership by July, ending a 17-year period of government bailout. The bank's chairman, Rick Haythornthwaite, described the moment as "symbolic" and expressed gratitude to taxpayers for their support. The government's stake has fallen to below 3% and is expected to reach zero by July. The move marks a new chapter in NatWest's story and allows the UK to "turn the page on the global financial crisis".

Ask Aime: What impact will NatWest's return to full private ownership have on the UK economy?
