The Prime Minister has insisted there should be "no reward for failure" at banks which have had to be bailed out by the taxpayer.

He stressed that top executives at those banks had left without severance pay and bonuses.

The comments come a day after US President, Barack Obama announced a $500,000 (�355,000) limit on executive pay at US firms that needed fresh government aid.
