The work distinguishes the trust companies’ fiduciary role from their banking operations, emphasizing that early scholarship treated banking activity as assumed rather than analyzed. It outlines early developments including interest on deposits and safe-deposit services, then frames later trends through specified nineteenth-century

\nURBANA,ILLINOIS  \nACKNOWLEDGMENT  \nThe author wishes to acknowledge the assistance of Pro-fessor Ivan Wright,under whose direction this study was pre-pared.He is indebted to Professor M.H.Hunter

\n1~1E,192  \n# THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THEBANKING ACTIVITIES OF TRUSTCOMPANIES\n\nThe dissertation of which this is an abstract is a historicaland statistical study of the banking activities of trust companies.The fiduciary business of these companies,for the performanceof which they were originally organized,is not a part of thestudy and is mentioned only incidentally.  \nIn the preparation of this study,the laws of the states wereused as primary source material.They have been supplementedby the discussions and information found in the records of theState Legislatures.Another source employed in the statisticalstudies has been the reports of the Comptroller of the Currencyof the United States from 1875 to date;also,the reports of thebanking departments of the various states have been used ex-tensively.Since 1903,an annual publication has been putout by the United States Mortgage and Trust Company ofNew York City known as “Trust Companies of UnitedStates.”In this publication are to be found statements of thetrust companies in United States,and a recapitulation for allthe states.This publication,together with the Comptrollers'Reports and the Annual Reports of the State Banking Depart-ments,have been used not only to furnish data,but for thepurpose of checking for accuracy the data which appears in each.Other sources have been used in which any mention is made ofbanking activities,but all works have,up to the present time,dealt primarily with the trust company as a fiduciary.Thebanking activities seem to have been taken for granted,and noattention has been given to the remarkable growth of this par-ticular line of trust company business.It is for the purposeof emphasizing the banking business of trust companies thatthis study has been undertaken.  \nThe early part of the discussion deals with the first trustcompanies in United States.They were not chartered as trustcompanies originally,but as fire and life insurance companies,or insurance and annuity companies;trust activities remainedsecondary until,with the growth of wealth,the fiduciary ser-vice became of greatest importance,while insurance and annuitybusiness was secondary.While this change went on in the ac-  \ntivities of trust companies,others were chartered until by themiddle of the N","cbCainmQsx1b9vHW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainmQsx1b9vHW","pdf",391984,"English","#
