It is unnecessary to advance arguments as to the expediency
of establishing this great National Bank. Existing circum-
stances will suggest the strongest. The object is to unite all
that is sound in the system of Joint-stock Banking, with all
that is respectable in the system of privateßanking, and at
the same time to avoid the errors and evils of both.
Shares of One Thousand Pounds each, with 5001. to be paid
up, will prevent an admixture of speculative adventures with
opulent capitalists. The Joint-stock system of Banking to be
sound as a whole should be sound in each of its parts.
The Royal Bank of Liverpool hasbeen formed upon the same
principle—in the brief period of three years its shares have art i-
ved at a premium ofabout 50 per cent. London must be t better
field for such a system than Liverpool. The Commercial Bank
of London is capable of being the focus of the Joint-stock
Banks of the whole kingdom.
The Commercial Bank of London combines three important
advautiges--vis., a large capital, permanent responsibility, and
uniformity in the system of management ; thus securing that
acknowledged desideratum, a guarantee that the capital of the
Bank shall not be withdrawn, nor its efficient action impaired
by the death or retirement of co-partners.
The Commercial Bank of London has been founded as a
Bank of Deposit for making advances by loan or otherwise, and
more especially as a point of concentration for such Provincial
Joint-stock and other country Bank.; as conduct their business
on sound banking principles.
Three Managers syill be appointed. The qualification of each
to be a long previous experience in the banking or discounting
of London, by which the knowledge, decision, and secrecy of a
private bank will be added to the superior solidity of a sound
joint-stock system.
Interests on deposits will he allowed on special agreement
only, no Bank not having the advantage of issuing its own paper
an be expected to grant interest on floating deposits or on
current accounts; but while recognising security as the legiti-
mate basis of every banking transaction, the Directors will be
desirous at all times, but,especially in periods of financial pre,-
sure, to meet the just demands of every class of society, com-
mercial, manufacturing, and agricultural.
Ten per cent. will be required to be paid on the allotment of
the Shares, and such further calls made as may be necessary,
by instalments no' exceeding 10 per cent., of which three
months' notice will be given by public advertisement, but not
more than 50 per cent. of the subscribed capital will be called
for without the concurrence of three-fourths in value of the
Proprietors at a General Meeting to be held for that purpose.
In order to limit the responsibility of the Subscribers, it is
intended to provide by the deed of settlement, that in the event
of one-third of the paid up capital being lost, it shall be cora-
Pulsory on the Board of Directors to convene a meeting of the
Proprietors, and with the concurrence of a majority in value,
to dissolve'the Company.
It is intended to establish a Branch at the West-end of the
Metropolis, but at no other place.
A General Meeting of Proprietors will be held annually,
When a statement of the affairs of the Bank will be laid before
them.
