Household names, often with preserved archives, have had their company stories written by academics, journalists, and former senior employees. Broader national studies have analysed the role that big business has played in a country’s economic development. While sometimes this work has alleged oppressive anti-competitive behaviour, much has been written from a more positive perspective. Business historians, influenced by the pioneering work of Alfred Chandler, have implicated the ‘visible hand’ of large scale enterprise in national economic development particularly through their competitive strategies and modernised governance structures, which have facilitated innovation, the integration of national markets, and the growth of professional bureaucracies. While our understanding of the role of big business has been enriched by an aggregation of case studies, some writers have sought to study its impact through economy-wide lenses. This has typically involved constructing sets of the largest 100 or 200 companies at periodic benchmark years through the twentieth century, and then analysing their characteristics – such as their size, industrial location, growth strategies, and market share - and how they changed over time.

    CENTRE FOR ECONOMIC HISTORY THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY DISCUSSION PAPER SERIES ! THE AUSTRALIAN BANK CRASHES OF THE 1890S REVISITED DAVID T. MERRETT UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 2013-05 APRIL 2013 THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY ACTON ACT 0200 AUSTRALIA T 61 2 6125 3590 F 61 2 6125 5124 E [email protected] http://rse.anu.edu.au/CEH The Australian Bank Crashes of the 1890s Revisited David T. Merrett University of Melbourne Abstract Financial crises occurred in many countries in the early 1890s, most of which were connected to international capital flows. Australia, a major importer of capital, had difficulty borrowing after the Baring crisis. This paper argues that the consequences of the banking crash in early 1893 were shaped by local factors. A fortuitous legislative change averted a calamity by allowing for reconstruction rather than liquidation of banks; economic activity was depressed as banks became more conservative lenders; and the reconstructions reduced the wealth of domestic bank creditors and shareholders. We conclude by noting that there was no targeted policy response in the short or medium term to prevent a recurrence of such an event. The author would like to thank the referees for this journal, together with Bernard Attard, André Sammartino, John Waugh and the participants at the Financial Crises and Workouts: Historical Perspectives Workshop at the Australian National University on 5 September 2012 for their suggestions and advice. 1 Introduction Previous studies of the Australian bank crash of the 1890s have taken a local view of the episode within the context of a surge in and then cessation of British capital inflow.

  • Malcolm Pearse, 'Australia's Early Managers'
    AUSTRALIA’S EARLY MANAGERS Malcolm Pearse1 Macquarie University Abstract The origins of managers and management have been studied comprehensively in Great Britain, Europe and the United States of America, but not in Australia. Most scholars have looked at Australia’s history in the twentieth century to inform the literature on the modern enterprise, big business and management, but the role of the manager or agent was established in many businesses by the 1830s. There were salaried managers in Australia as early as 1799, appointed to oversee farms. The appointment of managers in Australia from as early as 1799 continued the practice of British institutions in some industries. But in other contexts, management practice departed from British practice, demonstrating largely adaptive, rather than repetitive features. As the wool industry dominated the economy, the range of industries grew and managers or agents were appointed to businesses such as public companies, which were formed from at least 1824. During the 1830s, there were managers of theatres, hotels, merchant houses, and in whaling, cattle, sheep, shipping and banking activities. As banking expanded during the 1830s and 1840s, so did the number of managers. Bank managers were appointed both with the entry of new banks and with branch expansion. As banks expanded their branch network, the number of managers increased. The establishment of branches continued another British institution in the colonial context and further reinforced the manager’s role. The rise of the salaried manager in Australia was harnessed to the rise of the public company and began as early as the 1840s but was more evident during the second half of the nineteenth century, when public companies grew bigger and prominent in strategically important industries such as grazing, sugar, water, engineering, electricity, banking, insurance and shipping, river and stage coach transport.

  • Victorian Heritage Database Place Details - 1/10/2021 FORMER COLONIAL BANK
    Victorian Heritage Database place details - 1/10/2021 FORMER COLONIAL BANK Location: 32 PALL MALL BENDIGO, GREATER BENDIGO CITY 1 Victorian Heritage Register (VHR) Number: H1020 Listing Authority: VHR Extent of Registration: AMENDMENT OF REGISTER OF HISTORIC BUILDINGS Historic Building No. 1020. Former Colonial Bank, 32 Pall Mall, Bendigo. (To the extent of: 1. All of the building marked B1-B3 inclusive on Plan No. 600402I (A), endorsed by the Chairperson, Historic Buildings Council and held by the Director, Historic Buildings Council. 2. All of the land marked L1 on Plan 600402I (A), endorsed by the Chairperson, Historic Buildings Council and held by the Director, Historic Buildings Council, being all of the land described in Certificate of Title Vol. 839 Folio 167743.) [Victoria Government Gazette No. G16 21 April 1994 p.1004] Statement of Significance: The former Colonial Bank, Bendigo was built in 1887 by N Longstaff and Co. to a design by architect WC Vahland. It became a branch of the National Bank in 1918 when the two banks amalgamated and was sold by the bank in 1993. The elaborate style of the building reflects the important position the bank held in the community and also demonstrates the prosperity of Bendigo, one of the major centres for gold-mining in the nineteenth century. The building has an important association with the colonial bank. Established in 1856, this institution was a particularly strong rural bank and was the first reputable bank in Australia to advocate amalgamation of the successful banks. Its merger with the National Bank in 1918 resulted in that bank becoming the third largest in Australia after the Bank of Australasia and the Union Bank of Australia.

  • The National Bank of Australasia
    Kew Historical Society - Commerce and Industry series The National Bank of Australasia In 1977, the President of the Kew Historical Society received two historic ‘Signature Books’ from the Kew Branch of the National Bank of Australia. These Books were added to a number of other important documents held in the Historical Society’s collection. The National Bank of Australasia was formed in 1857. It Began commercial operations in Queen Street, MelBourne in 1858. Twenty-six years later, in 1885, the Bank’s first Bank at 87 High Street opened. A second Bank, on the corner of Walpole and Brougham Streets, designed By Inskip & RoBertson, replaced the first Bank in 1888. The second Bank remains, alBeit in a somewhat altered state. In May 2014, a presentation was made to students in Grade 2 at Kew Primary School. As part of the presentation, students were invited to identify the difference Between 19th Century (lower right) and contemporary photographs of the Bank. Students could detect that the original High Street frontage had Been truncated, the final Bays replaced and now occupied By a contemporary Commonwealth Bank Building. The ‘Signature Books’ of the National Bank of Australasia are two large Bound volumes covering the years 1885 to 1922. The first entries date from the opening of the first Bank in High Street in 1885 and were subsequently used in the second bank after 1888. They record a customer’s name, address, occupation if relevant, and signature. The first signatories included Edward Ball, Robert Blake, Helen Cooper, George Dike, AlBert Fenton, Thomas Foley, the Kew OmniBus Company, Francis Kellett, Maurice Neligan, Frederick Ratten, Ellen Shirwin, and William Woollard.

  • Golden Ochre, Blue Down Under
    Golden ochre, blue down under Antony Burton Abstract In a land of ancestral ochres, of endless horizons beyond the blue, the persistence of blue and gold in Australian flags and symbols since European settlement is explored and explained. Con- clusions are drawn as to their enduring significance, and implications sketched that could influ- ence flag innovations in the future. The essential criteria are respect for a sense of national be- longing and a place in the sun, in a design striking enough to claim distinctiveness in a field al- ready favoured internationally. Archive and other sources offer clues. Lesser known aspects of Australian vexillo-hagiography are brought to light, suggesting that the livery of green and yel- low, suited perhaps to flags of equatorial zones, should be returned to Brazil. Preamble Though a land of golden ochres, Australia’s flag is mostly blue. The Flags Act 1953 defines it in part as “a blue flag”.1 Why blue? For many, Australia still lies mentally as well as literally at the other end of the world. It is out there beyond the blue. It is still hazardous to get there, especially by boat, as even Norwegian captains have found.2 Australia is an island — a very large one. It is set not simply in sea but by whole oceans on three sides. A complex nation of blending cultures, Australia has developed its notion of nation from a British colonial toehold on the Pacific. Among several discernible flag families, and as shown by the 15 in Figure 1, blue seems to be the colour of the Pacific.

Charles Joseph La Trobe had recommended the Bank’s establishment and he was also on the first Board of Trustees (Museum Victoria 2016). By 1850 additional branches had opened in Geelong and Port Fairy. The Savings Bank of Port Phillip Laws Amendment Bill was introduced in 1852 to continue the Port Phillip Bank as the Savings Bank of Victoria. This bill was related to the separation of the colony of Victoria from New South Wales. A consideration of the bill by a committee resulted in each branch of the Savings Bank being required to operate separately under a Board of Commissioners. In 1853 the Act to Consolidate and Amend the Laws Relating to Savings Banks came into effect. A head office for the bank opened in 1858 in Melbourne and several regional banks opened between 1857 and 1865. The regional banks were opened under the auspices of the State Savings Bank of Victoria.

  • A History of Last-Resort Lending and Other Support for Troubled Financial Institutions in Australia
    A HISTORY OF LAST-RESORT LENDING AND OTHER SUPPORT FOR TROUBLED FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS IN AUSTRALIA Bryan Fitz-Gibbon and Marianne Gizycki Research Discussion Paper 2001-07 October 2001 System Stability Department Reserve Bank of Australia The authors would like to thank Chay Fisher, Keith Hall, Chris Kent, John Laker and David Merrett for helpful comments. Any remaining errors are our own. The views expressed are those of the authors and should not be attributed to the Reserve Bank of Australia. Abstract This paper surveys the history of last-resort lending and other support provided to financial institutions in Australia and compares the practical implementation of lender-of-last-resort policy with policy prescriptions derived from the theoretical literature. Last-resort support serves to counter the market failures that can see fundamentally sound financial institutions fail due to a lack of liquidity, and to protect the economy from the systemic costs of such failures. The provision of lender-of-last-resort support, however, creates moral hazard costs. During the nineteenth century, Australian colonial governments and banking industry groups provided support to troubled financial institutions in a variety of ways that reflected both the resources they could draw on and their ability to constrain moral hazard behaviour. Since 1900, Australia’s experience has been unusual by international standards: the central bank has rarely acted as a lender of last resort; and, despite this, virtually no Australian bank depositor has lost money. Direct loans were provided only twice: once as a last-resort loan and once to ease the exit of a failed bank.

  • Report: Inquiry Into Aspects of Bank Mergers
    Chapter 2 Background - the Australian banking market A history of strong banks in Australia 2.1 Banking in Australia has a history spanning almost two centuries and for at least the latter century the core banking system has proved itself one of the strongest and most resilient in the world.1 As the Australian Bankers' Association pointed out: This stands in contrast to many other countries. For example, since the 1890s depression… there is only one example of bank depositors losing money in an Australian bank, and that was a small rural bank in the 1930s when the depositors lost one cent in the dollar. In our research we have found no example of when taxpayers’ money has been used to bail out any Australian private bank.2 2.2 This long-term strength has owed a lot to the regulation and supervision of the banks by the authorities. It has been notable that the collapses and near-collapses of financial intermediaries have occurred among the unregulated non-bank intermediaries.3 2.3 In the current global financial crisis, in a number of countries large banks have had to be 'rescued' by governments injected equity, making emergency loans or even (temporarily) nationalising them. By contrast, none of these measures have been necessary in Australia. The four major Australian banks now constitute four of only eleven among the world's largest 100 banks which are rated AA or better.4 2.4 The Government has implemented schemes to guarantee deposits up to $1 million, and offered to guarantee, for a fee, larger deposits and wholesale funding.
