The State of Kaupthing, Hsbc, Lloyds, Abbey and Barclays
UK authorities have seized control of Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander, the UK arm of Kaupthing. Kaupthing Edge -the Internet bank- was transferred to ING Direct and the UK operation put into administration. The Icelandic government decided then to nationalise the Kaupthing’s parent bank which went into technical default. “It did not matter that the parent company had sufficient liquidity and its position was solid,” commented someone from Kaupthing, before the entire board resigned. On this, Fitch Ratings added “In light of recent events, the ability and propensity of the Icelandic authorities to support the banking system remain increasingly compromised”. Despite Iceland’s banking assets account about nine times the island GDP; this would not be enough to cover their debts, considering the imminent bankruptcy. A delegation from the IMF is currently visiting Reykjavik, while the government is also looking other alternatives in East Europe.
The Iceland decision of freezing bank accounts held by British citizens was criticised by the UK primer minister, who was considering legal action against the Icelandic government if the situation was not resolved. British local councils feared to lose millions of pounds of taxpayer’s money held in the island’s banks.
In the UK, the situation of the strongest banks is not alarming as they do not seem to need the government recapitalisation initiative to meet their commitment under the banking sector scheme. Barclays are to offer existing investors the chance to take preference shares or other alternatives before opting for government funds. The bank’s Tier 1 capital is estimated to be around 9%, which is very close to the 10% threshold required. Barclays counts on Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund, state-owned China Development Bank, Singapore’s Temasek and Japanese bank Sumitomo Mitsui amongst its main shareholders. HSBC, on the contrary, have received an equity injection of £750M from their internal resources. Lloyds TSB have declined to comment about their renegotiations on the terms of its takeover of HBOS. Finally, Abbey parent Santander seems to be in a good position in spite of the global crisis. CFO Jose Antonio Alvarez said ‘We can continue to deliver EPS growth above the industry thanks to our strong balance sheet and low risk profile,’ and also, ‘there is the possibility to add value by rescuing falling banks at attractive prices,’ when talking about the recent purchase of Bradford & Bingley.

Is there a main stream British bank that does free Business banking?
Are there any requirements, i.e. amount of money paid in each month, etc.
I opened a business account with the Abbey, but I can only pay money in via a cash machine which my local branch doesn`t have. Apparently the girls in there are unable to handle business accounts. crazy or what?
I’ve heard this about the Abbey. Most, if not all banks will give you free banking for the first twelve months. I use Barclays for my business banking and have found them to be very good.
