PROSPECTUS.
The object of this Company is to promote Financial,
Commercial, and Industrial enterprise in India and the
East by the application of English capital, for the legiti-
mate and remunerative employment of which there is ample
and constantly extending scope.
The success of the operations of the Financial Companies
in England has now been satisfactorily proved ; and a
similar institution, adapted especially to the requirements
of the East, and combining on its direction the needful
experience, will have a field for profitable operations equal,
if not superior, to any other.
The Corporation will act as General Financial Agents,
will make advances on approved securities, and will pro-
mote the development of the internal resources of the
countries in, which it may operate, by assisting in the
establishment of sound industrial undertakings and enter-
prises.
The Corporation will also undertake on commission the
investment of funds placed in its hands, either in the pur-
chase of property, or in lending it out on mortgage and
other securities. It will receive deposits at rates to be agreed
upon ; and it will take powers to issue bonds or obligations
on the security of its mortgages and subscribed capital.
The revenue of India has risen in a few years from
£26,000,000 to £47,000,000, and the aggregate import and
export trade during the same period has more than doubled
itself. The increasing development of her natural produc-
tions, and the successful cultivation of tea, coffee, and other
staple articles, together with the li:gh rates there current
for money, compared with those upon which it can be bor-
rowed in this country, make the opening very favourable
for the establishment of a Company of this description.
Powers will also be taken to extend the operations of the
Corporation elsewhere as may be found expedient.
Arrangements are in progress by which the business may
be speedily commenced.
Prospectuses and Forms of Applications for Shares may
be obtained at the Temporary Offices, or of the Brokers or
Solicitors. The Memorandum and Articles of Association
may be inspected at the Offices of the Solicitors. In the
event of no allotment being made, the deposits will be
returned without deduction.
