  • Murray bank sponsor takes record financial hit

    2/26/09 11:26 AM | Johan Lindahl
    Murray bank sponsor takes record financial hit Andy Murray may feel the financial pain after sponsor Royal Bank of Scotland announced the largest loss in British corporate history.

    The deficit of around $35 billion is sure to hit the sponsorship program of the once high-flying bank, now reduced to selling off Asian and European assets purchased just a few years ago.

    Murray has said that he hopes to work with his longtime sponsor during their crisis. But the Scot fell short of saying he'd provided a cash-back on his presumably rich contract.

    The bank has already said it will cut sponsorship of the Williams Formula 1 racing team at the end of 2010.

    The British government now has a stake of around 70 percent of the bank and is set to buy off its toxic debt for around 370 billion dollars.

    World No. 4 Murray began with RBS at age 13.
