professionals provide face-to-face support to firms of all sizes and sectors across Scotland. At the same time, we strive to explore new technologies and channels to allow us to connect with our customers and make these relationships stronger. We are actively looking to meet our customers’


funding requirements through both alternative and more traditional forms of finance. Whether it be to support growth, improve efficiency and liquidity or even launch an exciting new venture, we remain committed to Scottish businesses here at Bank of Scotland.
