Apostrophy usage for organisations
My understanding it that an apostrophy is used to show posession rather than make plural.
Does this also apply to organisations or is only to people?
Example below:
The Banks visual standards...........
Should I use an apostrophy for "The Bank's visual standards" or leave it without an apostrophy, as above ?
Many Thanks.
