Nationwide Building Society, HSBC and the Royal Bank of Scotland will be the first financial institutions to adopt a new staff training programme to help them inform customers about a safety net on their savings and current accounts.

The programme is part of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme's (FSCS) drive to raise awareness about the protection for people if their bank or building society goes under.
