Download or read book The Bankers Clearing House written by Philip W. Matthews and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bankers' Clearing House: What It Is and What It Does IT is with great pleasure that I accede to Mr. Matthews request that I should write a preface to his book on the London Bankers' Clearing House, for I have had the good fortune to have had his assistance as Chief Inspector of the Clearing House during the whole of my fifteen years' tenure of the Honorary Secretary ship. Nor did his services to the Clearing House begin then. It was in 1891, nearly thirty years ago, that Mr. Matthews first took office at the Clearing House, and for some time before that date he had been head clearer for Messrs. Barclay Co. No one, therefore, can have better qualifications for writing a history and an explanation of the work done by the Bankers' Clearing House than he has, and having read what he has written I think that he could not have put the first few months of his leisure on his retirement to better use than to have compiled this long needed book. The work done by the Bankers' Clearing House is essential to the financial welfare of this country. Without its institution the growth of the cheque as the main currency of this country could not have taken place. Yet its origin was of the simplest, arising as it did from the constant desire of man to save himself trouble. A few clerks, tired with tramping the streets from bank office to bank ofiice, bored with. The waiting at each office which ensued, determined to meet punctually for lunch and a glass of beer at a well-known chop house, and there to exchange the cheques that they should have left at the various offices.

This book was released on 2018-12-06 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Banks of New-York, Their Dealers, the Clearing House, and the Panic of 1857: With a Financial Chart A bank is simply a plan of organizing capital, by which the full benefits of it are secured. The separate means of individuals are united together, and a large sum thus constituted, which is hired out on interest to those who need it. This combination, and the manner of its use, may be compared to a dam across a valley, and the accumulation in one body of the water of the separate Springs, which otherwise would be of little service; but being united, they form a propelling power for extensive machinery. Without the organization of capital in some form, a community must remain in comparative barbarism. The few who possess wealth above their wants must either send it away for investment where it would enrich other places, or it would for the most part lie dead, while the poor would Continue in ignorance and drudgery. A public school, a library, or a church, would be impossible without combination. It is therefore a social necessity to organize capital, and communities thrive in proportion as this organization is effected. They prosper, not only in material sub stance, but in education and morals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The New York and London written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New York and London: Clearing House Systems With Valuable Statistics There is a measure which, though belonging to the administration of banks, rather than to legal enact ments, is suggested on account of its great importance. Few regulations would be more useful in preventing dangerous expansions of discounts and issues on the part of the City banks, than a regular exchange of notes and checks, and an actual daily or semi-weekl payment of the balances. It must be recollected that it is by this process alone that a Bank of the Uni ted States has ever acted or been supposed to act as a regulator of the currency. Its action would not in that respect he wanted in any city, the banks of which would, by adopting the process, regulate themselves. It is one of the principal ingredients of the system of the banks of Scotland. The bankers of London, by the daily exchange of drafts at the Clearing House, reduce the ultimate balance to a very small sum, and that bal ance is immediately paid in notes of the Bank of Eng land. The want of a similar arrangement among the banks of this city, produces relaxation, favors improper expansion, and is attended with serious inconvenience. The principal difliculty in the way of an arrangement for that purpose, is the want of a common medium other than specie, for effecting the payment of balances. These are daily fluctuating, and a perpetual drawing and redrawing of specie from and into the banks, is unpopular and inconvenient.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Federal Clearing Houses The credit system is liable to derangement or interruption or collapse from various causes, such as wars, crop failures, over-trading, failures in busi ness, or any events which shake the confidence of people in that which they had hitherto considered substantial, unassailable, and secure. Confidence must then be reassured and the commotion calmed before the credit system will resume its former regular mode of operation. Cash, or legal tender money, is the best assurance which the credit sys tem can have, but when financial alarm is aroused, it is found that there is only one quarter or one sixth or one eighth or one sixteenth of the cash on hand needed to meet all demands. The rest has vanished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Banks of New-York, Their Dealers, the Clearing House, and the Panic of 1857: With a Financial Chart It is not possible to introduce into a single volume all that is curious or interesting about banks; and scarcely less difficult to avoid things that may appear trifling or impertinent. The author has endeavored to give a picture of the banks of New York as they are; to describe the duties of the officers and clerks, and their daily experience in transacting business with the dealers; also to describe the conduct of dealers in their intercourse with banks. Some of the scenes presented may seem extravagant, and perhaps would be accepted as caricature, if not vouched for as literally true. The errors of the book are not, at least, in that direction. The real exaggerations of fact and manner, if rendered with the exactness of a daguerreotype, could hardly fail to excite a suspicion of designed caricature. A considerable part of the author's purpose has been to give a general knowledge of the method of bank book-keeping. It would be impossible to do this thoroughly, without running into the dullest of details. Any person of intelligence and vivacity will supply the omissions or oversights under this head.
