Get beyond Trump. The bank I work for is located there. I would have to be licensed and learn the language.

You work in the uk you should pay uk taxes.
We have a tax treaty, in the end you pay the the federal and state rate of your home state. If you are over deducted by the Uk government, you get a refund. -

Yes, and when you are in the UK you have access to the police, healthcare, lawyers, education and all the other things that come with the accommodation. They aren't optional and you will be charged for them
I'm sure if you, and your bank, were serious about having Edinburgh offices and US employees working in them this would all be known already -

I would pay sales and local taxes if I rent.. Healthcare would be through my private insurance. If I take any courses, I or the bank would pay. -

I don't think you understand how it works here
You are free to have private healthcare (As all citizens are) but until such things are verified you are welcome to the same regular healthcare that everyone else is (And your private healthcare doctors are also NHS doctors for 66% of their working week)
Lawyers, like the US, can be private too - no issue there. But should the need ever come where you need the state to cover you in that regard, you get what everyone else gets.
Private, in the UK at least, means paying the same as everyone else and then paying extra for the extra. You don't bypass the everyone else part regardless of where you say you are from
I take it you've not been to other countries either?
Some do double taxation and others have alternative means. But you do always get taxed and how that is sorted out later in your home country is done afterwards once the appropriate monies have found their way to the pockets of those allowing your entrance into their areas. If you are working you are not a tourist and so sales tax (Already included in every item) and local taxes (Why I have a PA) are things which some on top of the income tax and national insurance.
If your bank were serious about sending you overseas, they'd have someone talk you through all this and remove all the worries by employing someone to do all that work. And expenses would take care of everything else. You'd just be making money and never actually spending it
But that part might come later, should you best the competition wanting into those markets -

We have a treaty.
The treaty makes it so you're not double taxed. If you're being paid on a UK work visa you'll pay UK tax as well as a supplement for NHS. But you won't have to pay tax in the US (you still have to file a return)
If you are not on a work visa and are only there as a tourist, you're technically not supposed to work but yeah you can just file taxes in the US like normal. Your company likely won't permit it though -
