Cobalt is first with banking

Brand communications group Cobalt has created the identity for First Banking Systems, a joint venture company formed by the Bank of Scotland and FI Group.

The venture will provide the Bank of Scotland with IT services across all its banking divisions.

Cobalt was briefed to create an identity which reflected the 300-year heritage of the bank and the technology of FI Group. The design consultancy will implement the identity over the coming months, says senior design consultant Nick Jenkins.
