PROSPECTUS.

This Company is based upon existing institutions on the
Continent, which have been already worked with signal
success.

The founders of the International Land Credit Company
have previouly established—
In Belgium, La Banq'ie Hypothecaire Beige and La
Banque de Credit •Foncier et Industriel (the Belgian Mort-
gage Bank and the Bank of Industry and Land Credit).
In Holland, La Banqe Hypothecaire Neerlandaise (the
Netherlands Mortgage Bank).
In Austria, the Vindobona Mortgage Assurance Com.
Pany.
TheY have all prospered. The success they have met
'with is established by authentic documents. It may be
said, without exaggeration, that the results are brilliant ;
for these Companies have produced to their Shareholders an
average dividend of 20 per cent., and some of them much
more.
The experience acquired by the working of these Com-
panies has led to the conclusion that, in order to give full
development to the principles which have proved so auc-
ellsful, it is desirable to found a Central Company of an
international character, the main functions of which should
be, to raise capital by the issue of bonds and " lettres tie
gage" in the great money markets of Europe, to be em-
rclred through associated local Companies ia purchases of
and, or loans upon real property, in countries where the
ate of interest is high.
La Banque Hypothecaire Beige, acting on this prin-
etPte, and established nearly three years ago, has, with a
Vefinal capital of £480,000 only, succeeded placing on the
i",e_igitea market alone such an amount of " lettres de gage,'
themselves
its shares with £6 paid have risen to and maintained
nemselves at £lB.
b The capital raised in Belgium at 4 and 0, per cent. has
been employed principally in Austria, through La Banque
de uredit Foncier et Industrie], which has a branchgat
Viennaa completely organised, with a staff thoroughly
tj'rs„ed in Austrian affairs; and it is shown by the books of
• .kjempany that of all its operations of purchase and sale
A ustria, not one has realised less than 20 per cent., after
deducting all expenses, while generally they have reached
26 Per cent.
.;Such being the result of Companies limited to the Bel-
money market for raising capital, it is evident that
still greater results may be obtained by forming an Inter-
national Company, with a share capital large enough to
facilitate the placing of bonds and " lettres de gage" on the
money markets of England, France, Holland, and Ger-
many, as well as of Belgium.
Accordingly, the present Company has been founded,
ender the English Law of Limited Liability, and with an
_uffice and Direction in London, as well as at Brussels; ar-
f,Pfgenients have been made with the Banque Hypothecaire
'eige for a complete fusion, while a treaty has been con-
cluded with the Banque de Credit-Foncier et Industrial,
Which ensures the benefit of their experience, and a large
and profitable business from the commencement, a mini-
Uinta dividend of 11 per cent. on the paid-up Share Capital
being secured in any event, as the result of the first year's
Working.
It is also proposed to enter into an arrangement with the
Vindobona. This Society, which has existed at Vienna
for five years, and has a capital of 10,000,000 florins, gua-
rantees the regular payment of interest upon mortgage-
debts, as well as the principal when due. By this means,
all the business done in Austria will be rendered perfectly
secure.
The Vindobona is in the most flourishing state, It has
Paid the first year 6 per cent., the second 12 per cent., the
third 15 per cent., and at the next meeting it is expected it
Will distribute 25 per cent. Particular attention is called to
thia Point. This guarantee is one of the features which
essentially distinguishes this Company from other Land-
Credit Companies.
Siz pounds (a) per share will be called in the course of
the present year, inclusive of the payment of £1 each on
application and allotment ; after which, it is not expected
c:„tzally further Calls whatever will be made. The Share
-I.tal paid up will thus be £1,300,000; and the profit
tenured for the first year under the above arrangements will
from
further increased as additional Capital is raised
gagesl4 year to year by the issue of Bond and "lettres de
and as the securities of the Company become natu-
ralised fl on the chief money-markets of Europe.
l 2f the amount of £6,000,000 Capital now issued, £5,000,000
e- iOOO Shares have been taken and paid upon on the
vrtinent and 50,000 Shares are reserved for England, of
