The Country Bankers Handbook To The Rules And Practice Of 1 The Bank Of England PDF Download

Excerpt from The Country Banker's Handbook to the Rules and Practice, of I.-The Bank of England, II.-The London Bankers' Clearing House, III.-The Stock Exchange: With Useful Miscellaneous Notes T is now over twenty eight years since the first edition of this work appeared, and its usefulness has been proved by the fact that it had a continuous sale until the last reprint of the Fifth Edition was sold out shortly after the War commenced. So many were the changes during the War Period, especially as regards the regulations of the Bank of England and the conduct of Stock Exchange business, that it was necessary to prepare an entirely New Edition; the Sixth Edition was accordingly issued in 1919; and is now succeeded by the Seventh Edition. The work is still, almost entirely, restricted to matters intimately connected with the three great institutions mentioned on the title-page; but under the heading of Miscellaneous Notes are included various items of information which it is hoped will prove of practical value, such as those relating to Pensions, Annuities, Chancery Dividends, Passports, Circular Notes, etc., etc. Blank pages will be found at the end of each Section in order that the owner of the book may make such additions and alterations as may from time to time be necessary. The Index also has been carefully revised and it is hoped that the present edition will prove as useful as its predecessors appear to have been in assisting and minimising the considerable correspondence which daily passes between Country Bankers and their London Head Olfices or Agents on the matters dealt with in these pages.
