<p>The FTSE 100 was off 76.7 points to 6061.7, as Royal Bank of Scotland and Barclays fell more than 8% &#8211; down 14% and 11% respectively &#8211; causing trading in these shares to be halted for five minutes as automatic circuit breakers spring into action.</p>
<p>The FTSE 250 was also nursing hefty losses, down 3.7% to 15,487.7 points, as Britain&#8217;s vote to the leave European Union continued to pound the markets.</p>
<p>The Pound Sterling, which continued its negative slide overnight, staged a mini rally after Chancellor George Osborne said the UK economy is &#8220;about as strong as it could be to confront the challenge our country now faces&#8221;, adding Britain remains &#8220;open for business&#8221;.</p>
<p>However, it was still down 2.9% at 1.327 US dollars.</p>
