PROSPECTUS.
The Company is formed under a direct concession granted
by the Imperial s.S2vernment, for the purpose of promoting
and extending commercial and financial relations between
Austria and England. These relations are daily increasing
in importance under the influence of the ameliorated political
and fiscal system which has been definitively adopted by the
Austrian Administration and Legislature.
The Company will carry on the ordinary business of a Bank
of Deposit, Discount, and Exchange, and all operations con-
-sleeted with Bankingtransactions and Financial Agency. The
head office will be in Vienna, with branches at Trieste,Prague,
Brunn, and other towns in the Austrian empire in which it
may be found profitable from time to time to form establish-
/Rents.
In England, the interests of the Bank will be represented,
and the business conducted by the English members of the
Board, Messrs. Glyn, Mills, and Co. being the Financial
Agents and Bankers of the Company.
The I drectors point with sati•laction to their having se-
cured the services of Mr. Francis Brener as th it London Ma-
nager. Mr. Breuer's experience of German Commercial and
Financial business acquired during 25 years' service with
the firm of Messrs. Fruhling and Goschen—pecu'iarly qualify
him for the efficient performance of the important duties to
Which he has been appointed.
The Concession has been obtained by the Directors, and
made over by them to the Company, without consideration or
other charge than the preliminary expenses, which will be
limited to the disbursements made, and are of small amount.
The Company has not been brought forward until, by care-
ful neg.otiation, it has been ascertained that its formation is
desired by the Austrian Executive, and that, besides the grant
of a direct concession, the Imperial Government will be pre-
pared to open an account current with the head effice of the
Bank, and to employ the branches of the institution in a va •
riety of ways, in facilitating the revenue collections and other
operations of the Government, not overlooking, the import-
ance of the measures which are being constantly directed to
the complete re-establishment of the paper currency upon the
sorindest basis.
As some evidence of the satisfactory result of the negotia-
tions which have taken place the directors are authorised to
insert in this Prospectus thrffollowing extracts from a Minute
deliveredto the Company by his Excellency M. Von Plener,
-the Minister of Finance at Vienna, viz. t—
" Referring to the fact that one of the principal objects of
the establishment of the proposed Anglo-Austrian Bank, is
to facilitate operatiOna in Austrian Securities, and having
regard also to the desire of the Imperial Government to aid
as far as practicable in bringing about a closer union between
the financial ar,d commercial interests of Austria and England
than at preseAtt exists, the Imperial Government intends (so
far as it sh'otild appear to itself compatible with the success
of their financial measures—and with any legal direction
which may be specially prescribed in reference to any parti-
cular siperation) to give to the Bank the opportunity of under-
takistg such financial operations —whether the issue of loans,
placing of bonds or otherwise ; as the Government may de-
sire to effect on the London market.
"The Government also intends to open an account-current
Wi th the Bank."
There cannot be any question as to the profitable nature of
the field for the operations of a banking establishment in
Austria, con ducted on sound principles.
There are few recent changes ef more importance and in-
terest than the remarkab' e advance which Austria has made
during the last few years under the influence of its thoroughly
revised policy.
The harmony happily established between the Imperial
Government and the representatives of the different orders of
'the State, as assembled in the Reichsrath, has removed most
of the impediments which formerly prevented Austria from
enjoying the benefits of its vast commercial and agricultural
resources. Supported by the free debates of the Parliament,
the Government has been enabled to enter with visrour upon
a fiscal policy founded upon tree-trade views ; and to apply,
in many directions, measures specially adapted to develope
the wealth and enterprise of the country. River steam navi-
gation has assumed large prot °runes. The extent of rail-
ways in operation has increased from 1,7( 0 English miles in
1855 to nearly 4,000 in the present year; and the railway
System hag been actually completed up to a point which
leaves few of the leading districts of the empire unsupplied.
Still more important has been the marked increase in the ac-
tivity of private trade and in the mae,nitude of individual
enterprise; and that this altered state of things is solid and
real, is sufficiently attested by the great recovery of the Aus-
trian finances dnring the last two years. Under the measures
passed in 1562, the paper currency is in rapid process of re-
form—and since June or that year, the Exchange on Lon 'on
has improved from 140 to 110 in favour of Vienna The rise
in the price of Austrian Government Stock, since the same
date, being equal, upon an average, to 22 per cent.
In the speech delivered by the Emperor, at the opening of
the Reichsrath, in June last (1863), he was able to dwell pro-
minently on the improved aspect of affairs, and to state that
the finances of the empire have so rapidly improved during
the Parliamentary recess that the Government will not now
require the twelve millions of florins voted last year to cover
deticiences then anticipated.
Between 1851 and 1661 the export and import trade of
Austria may be said to have doubled ; but even at its present
amount of. say, 50 millions sterling, it is still very far below
the capabilities of the 40 millions of Austrian subjects, who
inhabit provinces extending to an area ot 240,000 suare
Utiles, in the most fertile and diversified parts of Southern
Europe.
When it is proposed, therefore, to extend to Austria the
appliances of Banking, according to sound English rrinci-
p les, it is important to bear in mind that the new institution
is not carried to a field already full or offering few advan-
tages, but is applied precisely under those circumstances
in which the success of Banks has been most conspicuous—
via., to a, rich country, and an enterprising people entering
with rsery encouragement upon the development of their
skill and their resources.
In the statutes, as passed by the Imperial Government, the
capital is divided into Shares of £5O or 500 florins each ; but,
in consequence of representations made to the Directors, and
Iri. order to render the Shares of the Bank more readily nego-
tiable
in the nrincipal money-markets of the Continent, the
Government has been solicited to authorise £2O as the de-
nomination of the Shares, and an assurance has been received
that such application will be greeted.
To avoid delay in the estabiishment of the Bank, it has
been decided to issue the capital in Scrip Certificates of £2O
each, exchangeable hereafter (at a date to be announced. and
'when £6 has been paid thereon) into Shares to bear as above
stated.
Under the revised Austrian Commercial Code, the payment
of £6 per £2O Scrip Certificate, equal to 30 per cent. of the
capital, will enable the Bank to commence business at once,
with the advantage of limited liability, and without further
demands upon its shareholders.
A of the Cocession and Statutes will be deposited at
the Office of the Sot citors to the Company, 46, Parliament-
street, Westminster.
The
pplications made in London for Scrip Certificates
of the Cpoatimilln/
should be addressed to the Directors in England at the Offices
; but no application will be considered, unless
