A nice piece summing up the banking challenges of Scotland. Given the strength of no in 2014 was in no small part related to bankers around Edinburgh, this could well see a shift long term away from the UK. It also serves to illustrate Scotland’s biggest unanswered question with independence: what currency would we use?
