BBC: London Scottish Bank scraps dividend as losses hit £16m
London Scottish, which has been in discussions with the City's top watchdog the Financial Services Authority (FSA) over its capital base for five months, said that it had a capital shortfall of £12.7 million on January 1.
It has been ordered by the FSA to increase reserves dramatically, but said today that it has agreed a plan, which will mean selling parts of the business, reducing lending volumes, scrapping the dividend and seeking alternative funding
