PROSPECTUS.

The great success which has attended the operations of the
"Credit Fonder" in France is well known, and is evidenced
by the fact that the original Shares (£lO paid)are now worth
£5O in the market, the la.t dividend decl red being at the
rate of 16 per cent. per annum, alter providing a large reserve
fund.

A conviction of the advantages which would be der:ved
from the introduction of the same system into this country,
and of the large profits attendant thereon, has 1-d to the for-
mation of the "Credit Fancier" for Great Britain and Ire-
land, which for many months past has been under careiul
consideration. Although the objects of this Company are to
some extent identical with those of another undertaking re-
cently introduced, yet the field of operation is ample forboth,
and there a; e also certain lucrative branches of business pro-
posed to be undertaken by the "Credit Froncier " which do
not appear to have been contemplated by the Company re-
ferred to.

The transactions of the Credit Companies recently estab-
lished range over a variety of interests, but they do not em-
brace the objects of the " Credit Fonder," as the daily ex-
perience of parties seeking for advances on landed securities
sufficiently testifies.
The "Credit Fonder " will receive money on deposit at
fixed rates, and will issue debentures for long or short
periods
Advances will be made upon all kinds of in' crests in lands,
buildings, and also upon approved securities, to be repaid as
may be agreed upon.
One of the main objects of this company will be to make
advances upon the deposit of title deeds. Borrowers, to whom
time is frequently of the utmost importance, will thus be
enabled to obtain Loans for short periods, without the delay
and expense to which they are now invariably subjected, and
to avoid which a high rate of interest will readily be paid :
from this source alone the Directors anticipate that consi-
derable profits will arise.

In addition to the employment of its own resources, the
" Credit Fonder" will act as agent between the capitalist
and the borrower, and will, in such cases, for an adequate
commission, if desired, guarantee the sufficiency of title and
security.
Whilst the commercial value of landed property will thus
be enhanced, and every reasonable facility granted to bor-
rowers, the profits derivable from the various sources of
revenue to arise from the transactions of the Company will
be such as to allow of the payment of large dividends to the
shareholders, after making ample allowance for working ex-
penses and a reserve fund.
In the event of no allotment of shares being made, the de-
posit will be returned in full. Should a ess number of shares
be allotted than are applied for, the deposit will be made
available towards the payment on allotment, and the balance,
if any, returned to the applicant. Prospectuses and forms of
application for shares may be obtained at the Offices of the
Mercantile Credit A ssociation, 21, Threadneedle-street, of the
Brokers, and of the Solicitors.
