Excerpt from The Story of the Trust Companies Trust companies are a modern development. Their literature, as revealed in the bibliography at the close of this volume, has been of limited scope, although statistics have now been available for some years and the legal aspects and technical methods of operating the companies have had bestowed upon them a considerable degree of attention. The present book is intended, with an avoidance of technicalities, to sketch the beginnings and advances of the older companies, and to bring the individual narratives of a number of the largest institutions down to 1916, - a point within one hundred years of the original announcement by an American corporation of an intention to transact a trust business. In most localities there are well defined differences between banks and trust companies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Between 1875 and 1900, the assets of trust companies in New York City grew at a compound annual rate of 9.6%, compared with 4.1% for national banks. The purpose of this book, first published in 1986, is to bring to light the entrepreneurial, economic and political forces which prompted the growth of the trust companies and resolved the movement into a well-defined financial intermediary and eventually led to the merging of the trust movement with commercial banks.
