Automated calculating and recordkeeping are the essence of DTC's book-entry capability.

The ability to utilize minute intervals of time permits computers to operate in billionths of a second. The illustrations in this report depict historical developments in each of these disciplines.

  • The Global Financial Crisis: Is It Unprecedented?
    Conference on Global Economic Crisis: Impacts, Transmission, and Recovery Paper Number 1 The Global Financial Crisis: Is It Unprecedented? Michael D. Bordo Professor of Economics, Rutgers University, and National Bureau of Economic Research and John S. Landon-Lane Associate Professor of Economics, Rutgers University 1. Introduction A financial crisis in the US in 2007 spread to Europe and led to a recession across the world in 2007-2009. Have we seen patterns like this before or is the recent experience novel? This paper compares the recent crisis and recent recession to earlier international financial crises and global recessions. First we review the dimensions of the recent crisis. We then present some historical narrative on earlier global crises in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The description of earlier global crises leads to a sense of déjà vu. We next demarcate several chronologies of the incidence of various kinds of crises: banking, currency and debt crises and combinations of them across a large number of countries for the period from 1880 to 2010. These chronologies come from earlier work of Bordo with Barry Eichengreen, Daniela Klingebiel and Maria Soledad Martinez-Peria and with Chris Meissner (Bordo et al (2001), Bordo and Meissner ( 2007)) , from Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff’s recent book (2009) and studies by the IMF (Laeven and Valencia 2009,2010).1 Based on these chronologies we look for clusters of crisis events which occur in a number of countries and across continents. These we label global financial crises. 1 There is considerable overlap in the different chronologies as Reinhart and Rogoff incorporated many of our dates and my coauthors and I used IMF and World Bank chronologies for the period since the early 1970s.

  • The Social Structure of Financial Crisis Governance, 1974 and 2008
    The Social Structure of Financial Crisis Governance, 1974 and 2008 Pierre-Christian Fink Columbia University Running head: Financial Crisis Governance Word count: 7,100 * Pierre-Christian Fink, Department of Sociology, Columbia University, 606 West 122nd Street, MC 9649, New York, NY 10027. E-mail: [email protected]. FINANCIAL CRISIS GOVERNANCE 2 The Social Structure of Financial Crisis Governance, 1974 and 2008 Abstract: Crises are moments of uncertainty in which existing routines no longer apply. Yet across some crises, patterns of governance repeat themselves. This article defines the conditions under which crisis governance is partially predictable, and identifies mechanisms operative in such cases. The argument is developed through a comparison of governance during the financial crises of 1974 and 2008, drawing on original archival research. In both cases, the institutional set-up led to the Federal Reserve becoming the leading institution in crisis governance. The Federal Reserve recombined forms of expertise from its two main departments (monetary policy and financial regulation) that are separate during normal times. As a consequence, it conceived of both crises as runs not on banks but on the money market, through which banks and other institutions increasingly fund themselves. Because the framing of the crisis as a money-market run implied even more risk—a disaster for the entire economy—than that of a bank run, the Federal Reserve hid its framing from Congress and the public. To solve the crisis, the Federal Reserve and its allies from banks and executive agencies sought to stabilize the money market by repurposing old tools to create so-called funding facilities.

  • And Consumer Credit in the United States in the 1960S
    Christine Zumello The “Everything Card” and Consumer Credit in the United States in the 1960s First National City Bank (FNCB) of New York launched the Everything Card in the summer of 1967. A latecomer in the fi eld of credit cards, FNCB nonetheless correctly recognized a promising business model for retail banking. FNCB attempted not only to ride the wave of mass consumption but also to cap- italize on the profi t-generating potential of buying on credit. Although the venture soon failed, brought down by the losses that plagued the bank due to fraud, consumer discontent, and legislative action, this fi nal attempt by a major single commer- cial bank to launch its own plan did not signify the end of credit cards. On the contrary, the Everything Card was a har- binger of the era of the universal credit card. irst National City Bank (FNCB) of New York (now Citigroup), one F of the oldest leading commercial banks in the United States, intro- duced the Everything Card in the summer of 1967.1 FNCB was a pioneer in fostering consumer fi nance in the United States. The bank saw an opportunity to increase business by creating an innovative system that would enable masses of consumers to purchase a variety of goods and services on credit. By becoming the principal tool of consumer credit, credit cards revolutionized the banking business. Indeed, “where it couldn’t gain territory with bricks and mortar, Citibank tried to do so 2 with plastic.” The author wishes to express her gratitude to Lois Kauffman of the Citigroup Archives, Citi’s Center for Heritage and Strategy, New York City.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE AMERICAN BANKING SYSTEM AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT ARTHUR JOHN KEEFFE* MARY S. HEAD** Many of the problems which currently plague the American banking system bear a striking resemblance to the financial excesses and abuses of the late 1920's and the early 1930's which resulted in the economic collapse of that period. The lack of effective bank regulation, the increasing expansion of banks into nonbanking activities, and the rapid growth of bank holding companies are developments which produced catastrophe in an earlier day and which threaten to produce similar results today if current trends in banking continue unchecked. During the first quarter of the twentieth century, the stability of the American banking system, already weakened by a wave of financial crises which began in 1869, was further jeopardized by the large-scale entry of banks into nonbanking enterprises, notably the sale of securities.
