The Westminster and Southwark Bank (Limited) is estab-
lished to meet the growing requirements of the inhabitants
of Southwark and Westminster and the West of London,
many of whom have hitherto been compelled to transaet
their business at great inconvenience, because of their dis-
tance from central banking establishments.
The vast capital and the constantly increasing d'ommerce
of Southwark, Westminster, and the West of London render
improved facilities for banking an object of great importance;
and this Company.has already received promises of support
of a very encouraging character, both as to investments and
business accounts.
The principle of limitc d liability, as applied to Joint-Stock
Banks, removes the difficulty with respect to obtaining an
influential and wealthy proprietary, no proprietor being
called upon to pay more than the amount for which he has
subscribed, while the public are amply secured by that por-
tion of the nomina, capital which is not necessary for imme-
caste business, and is the-efore allowed to remain on call.
That Joint-stock Banks have the confidence of capitalists,
is evidenced by the fact that their shares are qu,ted at from
80 to 300 per cent. premium on the amount paid up ; and the
profitable character of their business is evidenced by divi-
dends up to 24 per cent. per annum.
The current accounts and deposits held by the Joint-Stock
Banks in London ou the 31st December, 1862, amounted to a
total exceeding sixty millions, being upwards of five millions
in excess of the corresponding period of the previous year.
It will be seen by the returns that banking, as at present
conducted, is among the most legitimate and profitable of
monetary investments.
The Directors have made arrangements whereby the whole
of the preliminary expenses incidental to the formation of the
Company, including law charges, brokerage, advertising, rent
of offices, and every „other expense of whatever description.

sitors.
