Synopsis
In the nineteenth century, the foundations of France’s banking system were established and refined. This book traces the fierce debate over the principles of banking and the creation of banknotes. The author argues that the concession of the exclusive right to issue banknotes to the Banque de France was the culmination of a battle of ideas, not a matter of accident. The importance of a unified banking system and the dangers of a proliferation of note-issuing banks are themes that resonate today, as they did in 1806. This book’s historical insights offer compelling lessons for understanding the nature and importance of banking.
