Bloomberg- Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc has been sued by London-based hedge fund Merebis Capital Management LLP for reversing a 250 million-euro ($395 million) investment in Merebis by ABN Amro shortly after RBS acquired the Dutch bank, the Financial Times reported.
Merebis claims in a case filed in London’s High Court that it is owed a penalty fee of 17.8 million pounds ($35 million) for the early withdrawal by ABN, which was repaid most of its investment this month, leading to the closing of the hedge fund, the newspaper said.
