In 2001, Halifax agreed a £10.8 billion merger with the Bank of Scotland. The new bank, renamed, Halifax Bank of Scotland (HBOS) was to be headquartered in Edinburgh, but retain both bank names. However in Scotland, the Halifax was amalgamated with the Bank of Scotland, and is only used for branding mortgages and savings products. Halifax branches in the rest of the UK use the Bank of Scotland brand for business banking.
