The British Banking Mechanism by W Manning Dacey

First published in 1951, The British Banking Mechanism seeks to enable the reader to obtain a real understanding of the British financial system as it operated back in the 1950s.The book shows how the traditional concept of the Bank of England as the supreme monetary authority controlling the volume of credit has to be modified now that the government, instead of private industry, is the chief borrower from the banking system. This book is of historical importance for scholars and students of banking history, British banking and British economics.

Reviews of the original publication-

“A valuable addition to the literature of banking”—Economist

“It has all the merits of true and lucid scholarship.”—Bankers’ Magazine

For students of banking the volume can be confidently recommended as an addition to their technical library”. --Financial World

W. Manning Dacey, Late Honorary Fellow of the London School of Economics, Economic Advisor, Lloyds Bank.
