This book considers the development of the Finance, Tourism and
Agricultural industries, as the main sectors of business activity,
in Jersey in the twentieth century. The development of the Finance
industry from the arrival of the first merchant bank in the 1960s
to its present day standing providing a significant contribution to
GNP is considered. This is set against the perceived decline in
Agriculture due to too much concentration on certain produce and
competition from other areas. Also, the continued importance of the
Tourism industry is considered in relation to the other two main
industries. The aims of the book are to determine the factors
involved in the modern development of the main industries. The book
contains illustrations by Elizabeth Clark.
