May 19 (Bloomberg) -- Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc, the U.K.'s second-biggest, appointed three ABN Amro Holding NV executives to new roles in India.

Manoj Agarwal was named head of global corporate finance for the South Asian nation, and Anjani Kumar was appointed head of mergers and acquisitions, according to an e-mailed statement. Dilip Kadambi will oversee equity capital markets in India.

RBS, based in Edinburgh, made the appointments as it integrates operations with Amsterdam-based ABN Amro after leading a group in the 72 billion euro ($112 billion) acquisition of the Dutch Bank last year. Five ABN executives were hired as managing directors by Barclays Plc, the U.K.'s third-biggest bank, last week.
