Alison Rose

Alison Rose is the CEO of the Royal Bank of Scotland,Inc.(RBS). The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) said its comments last month - in which the regulator said a NatWest employee shared information when they should not have done, and there were two privacy breaches - wrongly gave the impression it investigated the actions of Dame Alison.

"We confirm that we did not investigate Ms Rose's actions, given that NatWest was the data controller under investigation," the ICO said on Monday. Instead, solely NatWest's actions as a data controller were investigated, rather than Dame Alison, the statement said.
