And Ninety-five Proprietors.
The following Report was read by the Secretary :
The Directors have much satisfaction in meeting the Pro-
prietors for the second time, and laying before them a state-
ment of the affairs of the Bank for the past year, with the ap•
propriation of the profit made during that period, from which
it will be seen that after paying all current expenses, and a sum
of 551. I Is. ld. fur interest. to cu:tomers on thtir current ard
deposit accounts, besides providing for bad debts, and dis-
60.1ging a portion of the twelisoi narg x ttqV v Oren,'
enahied out. of the net.-pre&- to declare a JiVidoidlaf five Pei.
cent. on she paid-up capital of the Company, and to set apart
a further sum of 2.0001. to the reserved fund.
The Directors' impressed with the impottance, both as re-
spects se, urity and influence, of a large paid up capital to a
Bank engaged in the transaction of extensive business in the
metropolis, have since the last meeting trade an additional call
of 51. per share. This was most promptly responded to by the
Proprietors ; and it will be seen that the paid•up capital now
amounts to 422,706/.
'the increase of the business of the Bank has been uniform
and stead.ly progressive, anti the Dire-tors anticipate continued
prosperity, trusting that the care and prudence with which
they hope they have hitherto administered the affairs of the
Company, wdl justify and confirm that confidence which the
public are now rapidly extending to banking institutions based
upon principles of undoubted security.
'the Directors have much pleasure in adverting to the con-
tinued success which has attended the Branch in Regent-street,
which under the zealous and effective management of Mr.
Cack, has. become a highly profitable and important establish-
ment.
A favourable opportunity having offered itself for opening a
Branch at Charing-cross, the Directors availed themselves of
it, by purchasing the premises, No. 4, Pall-mall East, lately
occupied by the Metropolitan Bank (which has withdrawn from
business), and they have every expectation that it will also be
found to be a valuable auxiliary to the Bank, under the man-
agement of Mr. Wight, a gentleman of high character and
great experience in banking.
The extent and success of the Company being such as to
enable the Directors to meet the convenience of the Proprie-
tors, by declaring half yearly dividends, it is their intention to
pursue that course for the future.
The Directors have much pleasure in recording their con-
tinued approbation of the great zeal and unremitting attention
to the interests of the establishment, evinced by Mr. W. W.
Scrimgeour, the General Manager.
The Directors refer with much satisfaction to the increased
number of Shareholders who have opened their accounts with
the Bank since the last general meeting ; and they would
again urge upon those Proprietors who have not yet. become
customers, the importance of doing so, and using their in-
fluence upon every favourable opportunity for promoting the
business of the Bank, by which :hex own interests are con.
sulted, and the value of their investments materially increased.
