document may include forward-looking statements within the meaning
of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995, such as statements with respect to NatWest's financial
condition, results of operations and business, including its
strategic priorities, financial, investment and capital targets,
and climate and sustainability related targets, commitments and
ambitions described herein. Statements that are not historical
facts, including statements about NatWest's beliefs and
expectations, are forward-looking statements. Words, such as
'expect', 'estimate', 'project', 'anticipate', 'commit', 'believe',
'should', 'intend', 'will', 'plan', 'could', 'target', 'goal',
'objective', 'may', 'outlook', 'prospects' and similar expressions
or variations on these expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. In particular, this document may
include forward-looking statements relating, but not limited to:
the successful completion of the placing, NatWest's outlook,
guidance and targets (including in relation to RoTE, total income,
other operating expenses, loan impairment rate, CET1 ratio, RWA
levels, payment of dividends and participation in directed
buybacks), its financial position, profitability and financial
performance, the implementation of its strategy, its access to
adequate sources of liquidity and funding, its regulatory capital
position and related requirements, its impairment losses and credit
exposures under certain specified scenarios, substantial regulation
and oversight, ongoing legal, regulatory and governmental actions
and investigations. Forward-looking statements are subject to a
number of risks and uncertainties that might cause actual results
and performance to differ materially from any expected future
results or performance expressed or implied by the forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to differences
in current expectations include, but are not limited to, future
growth initiatives (including acquisitions, joint ventures and
strategic partnerships), the outcome of legal, regulatory and
governmental actions and investigations, the level and extent of
future impairments and write-downs, legislative, political, fiscal
and regulatory developments, accounting standards, competitive
conditions, technological developments, interest and exchange rate
fluctuations, general economic and political conditions and
uncertainties, exposure to third party risk, operational risk,
conduct risk, cyber, data and IT risk, financial crime risk, key
person risk and credit rating risk and the impact of climate and
sustainability related risks and the transitioning to a net zero
economy. These and other factors, risks and uncertainties that may
impact any forward-looking statement or NatWest's actual results
are discussed in NatWest's 2024 Annual Report and Accounts on Form
20-F, NatWest's Interim Management Statement for Q1 2025, and its
other public filings. The forward-looking statements contained in
this document speak only as of the date of this document and
