The Russian Private Banking Houses, 1870–1914
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 March 2009
Extract
This article discusses the Russian private banking houses between 1870 and 1914. The author concludes that these enterprises played an important, and largely unregulated, role in the Russian credit system prior to 1914. Their conflicts with the Ministry of Finance testify to the growing influence of business circles in Russian life shortly before the war.
