  • 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.

Madam Justice Karen Weiler proposed this project. The Law WCommission of Ontario’s Board of Governors approved it for study on November 19, 2007 and approved this Final Report on October 6, 2008. A disproportionate number of low income recipients of government cheques cash their cheques at businesses in the alternate financial sector. The LCO’s recommendations in this project are intended to provide an environment in which those who pay fees to cash their government cheques do so as a matter of choice, rather than because of their inability to establish bank accounts, their geographic location or other factors outside their control. Accordingly, the recommendations are directed at government, as well as private actors in this area.

  • Banking in the Global Village
    EPILOGUE Banking in the Global Village ARLE McLAUGHLIN WAS A TRAVELLING MAN. THE MAN AT THE TOP IN THE ERoyal Bank had always been a man on the move. As president of the bank in the 1880s, Thomas Kenny had been obliged to travel up and down the Intercolonial Railway from Halifax to Montreal and then on to Ottawa. Edson Pease led as dizzy a life as early-twentieth­ century transportation would permit him: steamers to Cuba, overnight trains to New York, and chauffeured limousines through eastern Canada. Jimmy Muir became the first president of the bank to circle the globe. But all this paled in comparison with McLaughlin's globe trotting. As retirement neared in 1980, MCLaughlin relished telling reporters that, during his tenure as president, he had logged 2.4 million kilome­ tres of air travel. By his count, he had 2,456 take-offs and landings to his credit. He had visited every continent except Africa and India. 'Tve got friends on a first name basis from Sydney, Australia, to Helsinki, Finland, and a lot of places in between. We're an international bank and it's extremely important to be seen and to be known," he told the Canadian Banker in 1980. "When I travel I am the Royal Bank." Although, in 1960, the board had hastily disposed of Muir's Viscount airliner, deeming it an unbankerly frivolity, in the 1970s, the bank quietly went back into the airplane business when a corporate jet was again bought, not just to ease the strain of travel on its executives but also to give them greater flexibility and privacy in their travel.

INTRODUCTION During the Great Depression (1930–1933), over 9,000 banks failed in the United States, while not a single bank failed in Canada.1 In fact, there have been relatively few instances of bank bankruptcy proceedings in Canada from 1867 to present. Approximately eleven bank bankruptcies have been referenced in the case law to date. The first bank bankruptcy appears to be the Bank of Prince Edward Island (1882).2 Next came the Exchange Bank of Canada (1883),3 followed by the Maritime Bank (1887),4 the Central Bank of Canada (1887),5 La Banque Ville * Associate Professor, Osgoode Hall Law School, York University, Toronto, Canada, INSOL International Scholar 2008-9.
