Banking in Scotland has a long and distinguished history - to this
day Scotland is served by its own banks which form a distinct
regional group within the wider British banking system. Yet, until
this volume, there had been no book which gives a full account of
modern Scottish banking, analyzing its position within the British
banking structure.
With this comprehensive study, this gap in the literature of modern
British financial institutions has now been filled. Here, all
aspects of Scottish banking are covered. The author describes the
structure of the system and the pattern of branch banking,
examining the position and practices of Scottish banks in regard to
deposits and asset holding. He sets out the modern position of
Scottish bank note issues and analyzes their significance both for
the banks themselves and for the British system as a whole. The
book gives valuable appraisal of the performance of the Scottish
banks as lenders to the private business sector.
The author is not concerned with Scottish banks simply as
institutions domestic to Scotland. He traces their relationship
with the City of London and fully analyzes their role within the
operations of wider British Monetary policy. This fascinating
study, first published in 1965, concludes with a consideration of
the future prospects of the Scottish banks within British banking
as a whole.
