A Bank of Scotland Director Comments on Financial Crisis
This is my friend Duncan from Edinburgh, Scotland. He’s a director at The Bank of Scotland - which is like the third largest bank in the world!?!? (Duncan, correct me on that). I was just thinking about writing him to ask what his take was on all the financial crisis talk. Then I saw this up on his blog this morning.
It’s worth taking a look at and reading.. the whole thing. It helps to understand all that is going on and realize that this really is effecting a lot of people.

Josh, thanks for the comments and the encouragement. We’re not the 3rd biggest (one of the biggest in the UK) but our current market cap is around $36bn. c.40% of people in the UK buy something from us apparently. So pretty significant in the scheme of the UK, not so big in the USA.
Would be interested to hear your thoughts on it all too, and how it’s impacting what’s going on around where you live.
