  • A History of Merchant, Central and Investment Banking Learning
    Chapter 2: A History of Merchant, Central and Investment Banking Learning Objectives: To apply the history and evolution of money and banking to comprehension of existing systems To diagnose and calculate seniorage and debasement To recount how conditions drawn from history led to today's instruments and institutions To examine how economic problems lead to banking and capital market innovations To describe how money and banking integrated into the many economies over thousands of years To summarize the many artistic, literary, technological and scientific achievements that were funded or otherwise facilitated by banking To recognize the problems associated with usury in religious, social and economic contexts To express how academic, exploration, technological, trading, religious and other cultural developments contributed to the practice of banking A. Early History of Money In Chapter 1, we briefly discussed the economic roles of a number of types of financial institutions along with their origins. In this chapter, we discuss in greater detail the history of money and banking, beginning with the early history of money and extending through the advent of modern banking in the early 20th century. In later chapters, we will discuss the repeated occurrence and consequences of banking crises and development of banking regulation from a historical perspective. Commodity and Representative Money The earliest forms of money tended to have alternative intrinsic value as commodities. For example, grain-money has been used since the dawn of agriculture. Neolithic peoples in what is now China are believed to have used cowrie (sea snail) shells as money perhaps as long ago as 4,500 years.
