Exhibit No. 5
NatWest Group plc
19 February 2024
Commencement of On
Market Share Buyback Programme
NatWest Group plc (the "Company") announces the commencement of its
programme to buy back ordinary shares in the Company with a nominal
value of £1.0769* each
("Ordinary Shares").
On 16 February 2024, the Company announced its full year results
and a share buyback programme (the "2024 Programme") of up to
£300 million. The 2024 Programme will commence on 19
February 2024 and will end no later than 18 July 2024, provided
that the term of the 2024 Programme may be extended to end no later
than 15 August 2024 to account for any days where usual trading has
not been possible because of market events during the term of the
2024 Programme.
The 2024 Programme, the purpose of which is to reduce the Company's
issued share capital, will take place within the limitations of the
authority granted by shareholders to the Board of the Company at
its Annual General Meeting, held on 25 April 2023 (the "2023
Authority").
The maximum number of Ordinary Shares that can be purchased by NWG
under the 2024 Programme is 696,743,990**.
The Company has entered into non-discretionary instructions with
UBS AG, London Branch to conduct the Programme on its behalf and to
make trading decisions under the Programme independently of the
Company.
The Company intends to cancel the repurchased Ordinary
Shares.
* The
nominal value of Ordinary Shares without rounding is
£1.076923076923077 per share.
** This number reflects the impact on the 2023 Authority of the
reduction in issued share capital following the off-market buyback
announced on 22 May 2023. It is further reduced by the number of
shares purchased to date by the Company under the ongoing share
buyback programme announced on 31 July 2023 (the
"2023 Programme").This
number does not take into account further purchases of
Ordinary Shares which (i) may have taken place but have not, at the
date of this announcement, settled under the 2023 Programme or (ii)
may take place under the 2023 Programme between the date of this
announcement and the conclusion of the 2023
Programme. These
remaining purchases under the 2023 Programme may occur whilst
purchases are taking place under the
2024 Programme.
