Lloyds have announced the change of name from Lloyds TSB to Lloyds Bank. [1] This presents a problem for article naming as Lloyds Bank already exists with the pre-TSB-merger institution. Looking at the example of Standard Bank (historic) / Standard Bank, the current Lloyds Bank article should move to Lloyds Bank (historic) and Lloyds TSB should move to Lloyds Bank. Any alternative ideas to deal with this? 07:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
I've had a rethink, and merged the content from Lloyds Bank (historic) here, as there was a fair amount of duplication going on across the two articles. I've made it clear that the bank was named Lloyds TSB Bank plc between 1998 and 2013, and treated this different name as part of the bank's history. I hope you'll all be happy with this merge; I think it has simplified things a lot and the article flows more logically now than it did before. Cloudbound ( talk) 18:43, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
I uploaded the new logo in vector format here: File:Lloyds Bank.svg. However, due to a bug in Wikipedia renderer, the logo does not display correctly - some elements, e.g., the horse's ears, get cut off on screen (even though the image displays correctly in graphics software). I tried various ways to get past this error but unsuccessfully. Anyone is welcome to download this svg image and fiddle with it. kashmiri TALK 00:32, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
The main article states that Lloyds Bank negotiated not to join the Asset Protection Scheme. My recollection is that it was pressured into joining it by the then Bank of England Governor: Mervyn King and the Treasury, and then ,on realising that the Scheme was , for Lloyds, in effect, a very expensive missold insurance policy, left the scheme after a matter of months, but was obliged by the authorities to pay £2.5 billion as an exit fee.The Daily Telegraph article "RBS to exit £100bn state insurance scheme" by Henry Wilson, Banking correspondent, on 17.10.12 supports this view.
