  • BANK MERGERS: IS BIGGER BETTER? Introduction
    BANK MERGERS: IS BIGGER BETTER? Introduction In January 1998, the Bank of Montreal and the Royal Bank of Canada announced plans to merge and create one superbank. A few months later, in April, the Toronto Dominion Bank and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce announced similar plans. The proposed bank mergers caught many people off guard, including Minister of Finance Paul Martin. In a Macleans interview, Martin said, "Just because they decided to get into bed together doesnt mean that I have to bless their union." Martins message seemed to be that Ottawa, not the banks, would decide the future of banking in Canada. "There will be no mergers in the banking sector until we are convinced that [it] is what is best for Canadians, and we will not be stampeded into making that decision." According to the banks, the proposed mergers were a natural response to a changing and highly competitive global marketplace. Mergers, they said, provide a way of maintaining a strong Canadian presence in the banking industry. Certainly, recent technological advances have dramatically changed the manner in which the financial services industry conduct their business, and the above- mentioned banks feel, therefore, that they need to be bigger to compete and to have a substantial presence in the global banking community. Martin himself acknowledged the changed nature of banking when he said, "If you look back at banking five years ago, you might as well look back two centuries." While the proposed bank mergers brought attention to the challenges facing Canadas banks, these challenges are not peculiar to the banks alone.

  • Private Bankers in Ontario Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario
    HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO by STEPHEN EDWARD mORNING, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University August, 1994 -- -- --- - --------------- DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1994) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario AUTHOR: Stephen Edward Thorning, B.A. (University of Guelph) M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVJSOR: Professor John C. Weaver NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 502 ii ABSTRACT The structure of the Canadian banking system, and the establishment of strong chartered banks at a relatively early stage, have overshadowed banking institutions that operated outside the chartered system. The non-chartered or private banks can be categorized into three groups: the joint stock banks of the 1830s, the urban private bankers who appeared in the 1850s and after, and the small-town private banks of the post-1868 period. AJI three types of private banks were established to fill perceived niches in the chartered bank system. Those of the 1830s possessed an anti-establishment, hinterland bias. The urban private bankers specialized in savings and foreign exchange transactions, and often branched out into insurance, debentures, and ultimately stocks and bonds. The small town private banks began and prospered when the needs of small hinterland communities outpaced the inclination and ability of chartered banks to provide them with banking facilities. Unlike the urban private bankers, those in small towns offered a full range of banking services, and they often acted as insurance and real estate agencies as well.

  • 2021 Proposed Fees and Charges
    Meeting Date: November 25, 2020 Contact: Sean Crozier, Treasurer/Deputy CAO [email protected] 613-646-2282, Ext. 138 Title: 2021 Proposed Fees and Charges Recommendation: That Committee of the Whole receive the draft 2021 User Fee Schedules for discussion in advance of the Public Meeting scheduled for December 9, 2020. Background: As part of the annual budget process, user fees are reviewed to ensure revenue is generated for providing services that are not fully funded through the use of taxation, grants or reserves. Social and economic factors are taken into consideration with proposed changes. In the 2021 proposed budget, user fees represent 28% of the proposed tax levy, meaning that without the use of user fees, the tax levy would need to increase 28% to fund services offered. Analysis: The Township is proposing increases in inspection rates and the introduction of a Covid-19 related cleaning fee when required. Changes to individual schedules are summarized below. Schedule “A” Community Development: The proposed changes will position the Township to provide for comparable planning and building fees with municipalities within Renfrew County. The department will assess revenue vs. expenses for building services to comply with the Ontario Building Code Act in 2021. Schedule “B” Recreation: The proposed changes are a reflection of market rates for arenas. Schedule “C” Finance and Administration: Page 1 of 16 A slight increase to the issuance of tax certificates is proposed. Schedule “D” Legislative and Protective Services: Recreational vehicle licenses and marriage related fees have increased. It is not recommended at this time to change to a lifetime dog tag as yearly revenues aid in offsetting operational expenses.

Access to the payments system is a key element in the retail and financial services sectors' bid to remain competitive on both national and global scales. Moreover, a complete system of electronic payments will eventually reduce the need for credit cards and, to the extent that it increases the use of deposits for payment purposes, it will reduce the need for currency and cheques as well.
