Lloyds Bank is a major British retail and commercial bank that traces its origins to the 17th century. The black horse trade symbol dates from 1677, and is believed to have originated from a predecessor’s family crest because the black horse is heraldically posed in “rampant regardant.” When Lloyds took over in 1884, it continued to trade "at the sign of the black horse”.
