John Atkin - The Foreign Exchange Market of London: Development Since 1900

Foreign Exchange is big business in the City of London. At the last official count, turnover on the London foreign exchange market averaged a staggering $504 billion a day. No other financial centre in the world even comes close to matching this total. Thirty one per cent of global foreign exchange activity takes place in the United Kingdom, compared with only sixteen per cent in the United States and nine per cent in Japan.

However, this has not always been so. A hundred years ago, the London foreign exchange market played second fiddle to more important centres in New York, Paris and Berlin. This book charts the inexorable rise of foreign exchange in London over the past century and is the first full-length study of this amazing transformation.

About the Author

John Atkin retired from Citibank in 2000 after a career spanning 32 years. His principal role in the bank was that as Economic Adviser in London, but he served additionally as Chairman of the Trustees of the Citibank (UK) Pension Plan (1989-2000), and as a member of the Citibank's steering committee on EMU (1995-99). In 2000, following his retirement, he was awarded a three year Honorary Visiting Fellowship at Cass Business School. He spent this period researching and writing a history of the London foreign exchange market. John is a graduate of the London School of Economics receiving a Bsc (Econ) in 1966, and a PhD in 1968.
He is the author of two books: British Overseas Investment 1918-31 (1977, Arno Pressa reprint of his PhD thesis) and EMU: Challenge and Change (1998, Thorogood). In addition, he has published articles in various journals and newspapers including the Economic History Review, euromoney, The Banker, FX & MM, The Guardian and The Independent.

稍微看了一下，挺有意思，可以细细地看看。现在美国经济方面的书较多一些，应该对欧洲市场更所地了解一些。谢谢楼主！
