Private client investment manager Bell Lawrie is to be rebranded under its parent company's name, Brewin Dolphin.
The Scottish division of the group follows its Midlands offices in adopting the new name.
It will begin operating as Brewin Dolphin from March of next year, although the financial services it offers will not change, reports Money Marketing.
The Bell Lawrie brand has been in existence since 1841, with the company becoming part of the Brewin Dolphin Group in 1993.
"In the last year we have adopted the Brewin Dolphin name in our offices in the north-east, Midlands and Northern Ireland as well as nationally in our investment banking division," said the company's chairman Jamie Matheson.
"Brewin Dolphin is the UK's largest independent private client investment manager and is a strong, successful business and by bringing all offices under one banner we feel we can strengthen the brand further."
The company currently manages around £20 billion of funds for its 130,000 plus clients and has 39 offices across the UK.
