The
Royal Bank of Scotland plc is one of the retail banking subsidiaries of the Royal
Bank of Scotland Group plc, and together with NatWest and Ulster Bank, provides
branch banking facilities throughout the British Isles. Royal Bank of Scotland
has around 700 branches, mainly in Scotland though there are branches in many
larger towns and cities throughout England and Wales. The Royal Bank of
Scotland and its parent, the Royal Bank of Scotland Group, are completely
separate from the fellow Edinburgh based bank, the Bank of Scotland, which
pre-dates the Royal Bank of Scotland by 32 years. The Bank of Scotland was
effective in raising funds for the Jacobite Rebellion and as a result, The
Royal Bank of Scotland was established to provide a bank with strong Hanoverian
and Whig ties.
