Title | CENTRAL BANKS IN THE MAKING 1948 - 1974, BY ERIC PERCIVAL HASLAM |
Date | Jun 1979 |
Admin History | In 1974 Christopher (Kit) McMahon, Executive Director of the Bank, invited Haslam (an Adviser to the Governors) to write an historical account of the role of the Bank of England in the formation of other central banks. The study undertaken covered a number of countries in which, after the Second World War, the Bank had a substantial involvement in the creation of new central financial institutions. The Bank had sometimes been invited to advise countries on central bank before this time (1918 - 1939), but Haslam felt this had been adequately covered by Sayer's Bank of England 1891-1944, volume 2. |
