About NatWest
NatWest was formed in 1968 through the merger of National Provincial Bank and Westminster Bank. The bank became part of the Royal Bank of Scotland Group (now NatWest Group) and today operates as one of the UK's leading retail banks. NatWest Group is majority-owned by the UK government following the 2008 financial crisis, though the government has been gradually reducing its stake.
NatWest offers one of the broadest mortgage ranges among UK high street banks. It supports shared ownership and Help to Buy schemes, helping first-time buyers with smaller deposits. The bank also offers a Family Deposit Mortgage, similar to Barclays' Springboard product, allowing family members to use savings as security. NatWest has invested in green mortgages, offering cashback for energy-efficient homes.
The bank is a major player in the intermediary market, with strong relationships with mortgage brokers. NatWest processes a significant volume of broker-sourced applications and is known for competitive turnaround times. It serves residential, buy-to-let, and commercial mortgage customers across the UK.
