Synopsis

A detailed look at the Bank of Bengal’s early years and the reforms that shaped India’s banking system.

This book traces the evolution of the Bank of Bengal as government ties and new legislation changed its structure, ownership, and operations. It highlights how acts in the 1860s and 1870s redefined governance, capital, and safeguards, and how these shifts affected the bank’s role in public finance and commerce.

- Learn how government involvement changed, from direct ownership to new regulatory arrangements.
- See how capital, reserves, and loans were managed during pivotal years of reform.
- Understand the debate around agency work, risk controls, and how new securities rules shaped lending.
- Get context for how these changes influenced the broader banking landscape in colonial India.

Ideal for readers interested in financial history, colonial economics, and the development of modern banking in South Asia.
