The Financial Revolution in Sweden, 1650 – 1900
(2013) p.269-280- Abstract
- This chapters looks at the Swedish financial revolution in a long-term perspective. It begins with the establishment of the first formal financial organization, the Stockholm Banco in 1656, and follows the financial development until the end of the nineteenth century. The development of each part of the financial system is described in relation to the financial, economic, and political development as a whole. Despite its long history, the important institutional fundamentals for the Swedish financial revolution were assembled relatively late in its history, during 20 years, 1850–70, and this led to a significant shift in financial services during the years 1868–72 and an accelerated growth of the financial system thereafter.
