Abstract: | To most students of Asian banking history, the Bank of China, Ltd., founded in Bombay in 1864 and ignominiously wound-up in 1886, if known at all, seems something of a joke. The spirit of the affair is caught in the summing up of Sir Thomas Jackson, longtime chief manager of the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation: But the good people of Bombay, in addition to exploiting their own country, cast their eyes towards China and said, "We are going to start a Bank of China with its head office in Hong Kong." Well, the good people in Hong Kong did not like this prospect at all. |
