Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Currency and Banking System of England: And the Sister Kingdoms The merit of the Scotch system is, that in con sequence of the laws of property it affords a much superior security from the individual estates of the partners, beyond the bank capital, to that which the law of England does but in Scotland also the evil distinction betwixt subscribed and paid up capital has obtained in the constitution of some of its banking establishments; and it is at present proposed that a large and apparently sufficient capital should not only be subscribed. But actually be fully paid up and as this cannot be done to the extent required in money, it is proposed that it should be done in land or other property, by the simple means of proof of property, and public en rolment and register, provided for in the latter part of this first enactment, and as regulated by the second and third enactments.

Download or read book Suggestions on the Banks and Currency of the Several United States in Reference Principally to the Suspension of Specie Payments Classic Reprint written by Albert Gallatin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-02 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions on the Banks and Currency of the Several United States, in Reference Principally to the Suspension of Specie Payments Since the principal advantage of a paper currency consists in the additional capital it supplies, such currency is most useful, above all most wanted, but unfortunately a more dangerous expedient, in those countries and places where there is the least amount of circulating capital as compared to the demand for it. This is eminently the case in newly settled countries, with a rapidly increasing population. We find accordingly the local governments of America perpetually resorting to emissions of paper money under the colonial regimen; and that, at this moment, the excess of issues occurs principally in the Western States, and generally wherever country banks have been estab fished.

Download or read book The English Capital Market Classic Reprint written by F. LAVINGTON and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Capital Market T the risk of being charged with an attempt to rob criticism of its rightful bread, I feel bound to meet in advance an objection which may be made to the general character of this book: the objection, namely, that the convulsive changes of the last six years have so greatly affected the work of the Money Market that they have fundamentally altered the nature of the services it contributes in the economic organization of this country. Yet, when an engine is out of order, the skilled mechanics who are called in to examine and repair it bring with them no new ad hoc set of mechanical principles and the fair-minded patient, though his state of mind argues a world in revolution, recognizes that the principles of physiology have not ceased to operate. The tale runs that an eminent divine, after a decisive defeat of his party in the House of Commons, returned home and planted mustard and cress in his garden. Not long after he was able to assure his friends that, crushing as had been their political defeat, the herbs had nevertheless come up in much the usual way. It may be that they would grow now in the garden of the Bank of England, or even in a land reshaped to the lives of heroes. It is true that the war has loosened ideas, has released influences hitherto held in check by a sense of the inherent unalterableness of things, and by so doing has modified our general conceptions of the true relations among members of a modern society: in particular the relations between rich and poor, and between master and man. But the economic centre of the social organization has surely not greatly changed. Much the same impulses and much the same needs govern the adjustment of economic resources to economic ends; the long chains of processes through which materials pass on their way from the soil to the consumer are much the same as they were, though their operation is disturbed by an additional set of difficulties introduced by the war. This seems to be especially true in those inner and strictly business processes with which the Money Market is concerned. The banks still supply the means of effecting payments in the form of a cheque currency of unrivalled efficiency; they and the Issue Houses still collect capital from points of plenty and carry it to points of scarcity the company promoter, in the old extravagant way, still supplies business ability with the resources required to give it scope severe alternations of economic activity and stagna tion still arise from infectious changes of confidence on the part of the business men to whom society still entrusts the administration of its resources. Broadly speaking, the same principles of action lead to the same social economies and the same social wastes, though they work themselves out with less sureness and precision in face of the greater uncertainty which in present conditions affects all business adjustments.

This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Instructions of the Comptroller of the Currency Relative to the Organization and Powers of National Banks: 1919 The preliminary proceeding in connection with the organization of a national bank is to write to the Comptroller of the Currency requesting the reservation of the desired title and stating the location and the proposed capital. It is the practice to reserve a title for 15 days, during which time it is expected a formal application will be filed. If the nationalization of a State bank is contemplated, the request should indicate whether the bank is to be converted into a national bank or placed in liquidation and a national bank organized as its successor. If the State bank is to continue in existence and a separate national bank is to be organized, that fact should be stated. The application must be signed by at least five persons who are prospective shareholders of the association, and preferably by individuals who are also to be officers or directors. It should be indorsed by three prominent public officials, preferably the mayor and the postmaster of the place where the bank is to be located, and a judge of court. The exclusion of any professional promoters from the organization will be required, as an application to receive favorable consideration must represent a local demand for banking accommodations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crisis the Currency: With a Comparison Between the English Scotch Systems of Banking The critical position into which a combination of disturbing influences has thrown our whole monetary and commercial system, must have led all men, of thoughtful habits, to some investigation of the causes which have brought about a state of things, almost without example in this country, accustomed, as we unfortunately are, to periodical commercial crises. It is, perhaps, this very experience of former monetary crises which prevents the great mass of the public from very carefully inquiring into the nature and extent of our present embarrassments, or perceiving the danger which is still impending over us.
