Publisher's Synopsis
Benefiting from unrivalled access to its archives, Professor Michie explores the changes that have taken place throughout the history of the London Stock Exchange and reveals the profound implications of these changes not only for the Stock Exchange itself, but also for the relationship between the government and the securities market. Complete with an introduction by Sir Nicholas Goodison, former Chairman of the Stock Exchange, this book provides an invaluable insight into the way Britain's financial system has evolved over the centuries and the role it has played both at home and abroad.
