Lombard Street: A Description of the Money Market

About The Book

Much of what we consider modern economics is the work of British journalist and economist Walter Bagehot one of the first editors of the influential newspaper The Economist and an early proponent of business cycles. Here he develops his theory of central banking much of which continues to impact financial thinking today. First published in 1873 this replica of the updated 1910 edition explores the history of Londons Lombard Street from how it came to be the traditional home of banks and moneylenders to how the value of money was determined by the institutions there. Joint stocks private banking and the regulation of the banking reserve: Bagehots discussion of these fundamental economic issues makes this a vital resource for anyone wishing to understand financial history. WALTER BAGEHOT (1826-1877) also wrote The English Constitution (1867) Physics and Politics (1872) and The Postulates of English Political Economy (1885) among other works.
