3 FTSE 100 Shares Trading on Big Discounts: Hammerson plc (HMSO), Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc (ADR) (RBS)

Royal Bank of Scotland
Bailed-out bank RBS is four years into its recovery plan, and has targeted 2013 as its last big year of restructuring.

In its annual results released last week, the group reported TNAV per share of 446 pence at the balance sheet date of Dec. 31. At the time of writing, the shares are trading at 306 pence — or a discount of 31%.

The end of year TNAV was down 11% on the 501 pence of a year earlier. The current discount still looks attractive, even allowing for a further decline in the value of net assets in 2013 as RBS completes the bulk of its dirty washing and moves toward being “a cleaner and better-performing bank in future years.”

Finally, if you’re not convinced by the prospects of these three stocks but are looking for growth opportunities among the FTSE’s larger companies, you may wish to read this exclusive in-depth report.
