Lloyds TSB purchased distressed bank HBOS for £12bn in January 2009. The BBC reported in September 2008: "The deal was negotiated at the very highest level, with Prime Minister Gordon Brown telling Lloyds TSB chairman Sir Victor Blank that it would be helpful if Lloyds could end the uncertainty surrounding HBOS by buying it."[1]
