OTHE BANKERS KNOW BEST”I rather trust that following summer we might
be capable to inaugurate a private and diverse Central Banks ‘Club’, small
from the start, enormous later on.”— Montagu Norman, the legislative head
of the Bank of England, to Benjamin Strong, the legislative head of
theFederal Reserve Bank of New York, in 19251ne day in the mid-year of
1929, Montagu Norman, the legislative leader of the bank of England, get
the phone and addressed Walter Layton, the editorial manager of The
Economist. Norman energetically asked Layton to come to his office as
quickly as time permits to talk about a significant matter. During Norman’s
term as a lead representative, from 1920 to 1944, he was one of the most
compelling men on the planet and obviously a lasting stronghold of the global
financial framework. His gnomic expressions were scoured for the importance
. When he was re-designated lead representative in 1932, the New York
Times portrayed him as overseeing Britain’s “imperceptible domain of
riches.” “Highest quality levels may come and go,” the article noted,
“however Montagu Norman remains.”2 Such was Norman’spower that a
solitary discourse could move markets. When, in October 1932, Norman
bleakly declared at an investors’ supper in London that the
world economic issue was outside the ability to control any man,
government, or country, stocks, bonds, and the dollar all slid strongly and
rapidly in New York.
