Excerpt from The Discount System in Europe
If banks were to keep, in cash, all the money deposited with them, business would come to a standstill and a crisis would ensue. If banks were to lend to those who apply for loans all the money on deposit with them, a general panic and collapse would follow a short period Of overstimulation. Between these two extremes lies the middle course, the finding Of which is the problem, and its practice the art Of banking.

This book delves into the intricacies of the European discount system, a cornerstone of the continent's financial infrastructure during the early 20th century. The author meticulously dissects the mechanics of this system, contrasting it with the American system of the time, which was primarily reliant on bonds and stocks. The narrative unravels the historical evolution of promissory notes into bills of exchange, and subsequently, the emergence of vibrant discount markets that facilitated the seamless exchange of these instruments.

Delving deeper, the book explores the economic implications of the discount system, particularly its impact on financial stability and the mitigation of risks associated with international trade. The contrasting approaches to reserves and note issuance between Europe and America are meticulously examined, highlighting the potential vulnerabilities of the American system.
