Joined [[Campbell, John (London) 3]] at his bank in the Strand, becoming partner (1708) and taking over the bank upon Campbell's death (1712). His bank was known as a Whig establishment, and prospered under the patronage of London-Scots, especially the Argyll brothers [[Campbell, John (London)]] and [[Campbell, Archibald, (London) 1]]. Invested in schemes [[Law, John]], and suffered severe losses when they collapsed. Suffered also when the South Sea Bubble burst. Re-build his business with the help of Scottish patrons. Took on [[Coutts, John (London) 1]] as a partner (1755), who ultimately inherited the bank through his marriage to Mary Campbell's niece.
