Considering what they are probably paying in Switzerland I reckon the rates will be half decent and still look like a bargain for them.

Nope try doubling that then taking off 200 and adding 50.

Isn't all banking work in Edinburgh now actually either public sector or supermarkets?

Fill yer boots - did I mention my Edinburgh in apartment is available for a special monthly rental?

Professional IT workers in London must be in short supply or something.

One of the reasons they're coming up here must be that their first (and only?) UK client to date is RBS Coutts. I've worked at their offices in Zurich. Decent system... better make sure I mention that on my CV then!

There's plenty of high paying roles up here, but the rates are more widely spread. PM roles start at something stupid like 300, but there are plenty out there that go to London rates 700+. In my field, MI, I see roles from 250 to 500 which is more or less on par with London.
