| Title | CENTRAL GILTS OFFICE (CGO): BOOK ENTRY TRANSFER SYSTEM (BETS) |
| Date | 11 Feb 1977 - 28 Jun 1982 |
| Description | This series of files concerns the project undertaken by the Bank and the Stock Exchange to replace the paper method of Gilt-Edged Settlement with a computerised one. The need to modernise the process was identified as necessary in the late 1970s and the project aimed to put the new system in place by 1984. Many of the papers in these files relate to the work of the Joint Management Committee on Gilt-Edged Settlements and the Joint Study Group on Computerised Gilt-Edged Settlements. |
