This volume investigates African-American employment in banking and
insurance in the United States. The authors describe how these once
almost all-white industries are now employing large numbers of
African-American and what problems remain to be solved before equal
employment opportunity can be fully attained. Appendices tell the
story of African-American-owned banking and insurance companies and
their status today. Located in primarily urban areas, banks and
insurance companies may soon be among the largest employers of
African-Americans. The centralized personnel structure of banks
gives them a significant advantage in employing African Americans,
but the authors find that both banks and insurance companies have
been slow to employ black managerial personnel. This study is based
upon individual reports first published in the Racial Policies of
American Industry series. A final chapter compares and contrasts
the situations in banking and insurance, paying particular
attention to the reasons for varying progress in the two
industries. Founded in 1921 as a separate Wharton department, the
Industrial Research Unit has a long record of publication and
research in the labor market, productivity, union relations, and
business report fields. Major Industrial Research Unit studies are
published as research projects are completed. This volume is Study
no. 47.
