NATWEST MARKETS N.V.

NatWest Markets N.V. is a Netherlands-incorporated banking entity within NatWest Group that provides markets and financing services to corporate, institutional, and public-sector clients across the European Economic Area. Headquartered in the Netherlands and operating through EU passports and branches in selected jurisdictions, it serves as the group’s EU-facing hub alongside NatWest Markets Plc in the UK, a structure established to maintain continuity for EEA clients after the UK’s exit from the EU. The bank focuses on rates and currencies products, financing and risk solutions, debt capital markets, securitised and collateralised funding, and securities financing and repo, with activity centred on professional clients and eligible counterparties under MiFID II rather than retail banking. It holds a Dutch banking licence and is supervised by De Nederlandsche Bank and the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets within the EU prudential and conduct framework, and it operates under legislation including CRD/CRR, BRRD, MiFID II, EMIR, and the Market Abuse Regulation. The entity was previously known as The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V., reflecting legacy Dutch operations stemming from prior group restructurings, and was rebranded to align with the NatWest Markets franchise. Funding is primarily wholesale and intragroup, and the balance sheet is oriented to support client activity and risk risk-management services rather than broad consumer deposit-taking; eligible deposits, if any, would fall under the Dutch Deposit Guarantee Scheme subject to statutory limits and criteria. Governance follows the Dutch two‑tier model with a management board and supervisory board, and disclosures include audited annual reports and Pillar 3 risk reports covering capital, leverage, liquidity, and risk management. Client onboarding and transaction execution are subject to EU and Dutch AML/KYC requirements, trade reporting, central clearing where mandated, and standard market documentation. Products are complex and carry market, credit, and liquidity risks, and are intended for institutional use; the firm provides regulatory disclosures and product documentation (including KIDs where applicable) through its official channels.
