AbstractThe historiography of the Financial Revolution in Scotland remains underdeveloped. This article addresses that gap by rounding out the rough sketch that currently represents our understanding of Scotland's Financial Revolution by focusing on the formation of the Royal Bank of Scotland, Scotland's first new financial institution in more than thirty years when it emerged in 1727. The case is made that the Scottish Financial Revolution was a complex movement, very often separated from the state and driven by the agency of Scotsmen at home and abroad, and that 1727 denoted a phase of the revolution in which financially innovative projects returned to the country after a period of absence. The article demonstrates how the progress of the Financial Revolution ebbed and flowed in the country, contingent upon political circumstances, from the nascent economic developments of the 1690s and on to the political upheaval of the early eighteenth century.

While lending for small businesses and business start-up is a long-standing feature of economic policy in the UK and Scotland, little is known about the support available for those taking the first steps into self-employment, particularly people from poorer communities. This paper presents the results of a project that aimed to address this gap. It mapped provision of support for enterprise, including microcredit (small loans for enterprise of £5,000 or less) and grants available to people in deprived communities. It found more programmes offering grants than loans. Grants programmes, although more likely to be time limited and often linked to European funding, were generally better targeted to poor communities than loan programmes that were more financially sustainable. The introduction of the Grameen Bank to Scotland will increase access to microcredit, but this paper argues that there is a place – and a need – for both loans and grants to support enterprise development across Scotland. A Scottish economic strategy should take account of all levels of enterprise development and, in striving towards a fairer Scotland, should ensure that the poorest people and communities are not excluded from self-employment because of the lack of small amounts of support necessary to take the first steps.

Thouarella brucei Thomson and Ritchie, 1906 is redescribed from the type material present in the Museum of Natural History, London, the Zoological Museum of Amsterdam and the National Museum of Scotland. A lectotype and remaining paralectotypes are designated from the material from the latter. We also add a new record from west South Georgia Island. Material collected on Burdwood Bank, during the Brategg expedition and previously identified as T. brucei by Broch is here considered as a new species in the recently described genus Digitogorgia Zapata-Guardiola and López-González, 2010; Digitogorgia brochi sp. nov. Finally, a new species is added to the monotypic genus Tokoprymno Bayer, 1996, Tokoprymno anatis sp. nov., based on material collected north east of Elephant Island, during the Polarstern cruise ANT XIX/3. The study of these new taxa allows us to describe a wider variation in polyp scale morphology and a wider distribution in Southern Ocean waters, both geographical and bathymetrical. The new species are also compared with their respective congeners.

Abstract: This contribution compares the recognition of a general concept of unilateral promises, binding without acceptance by the promisee, in Article 2:107 of the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL) and Article II.-1:103 of the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) with the equivalent Scottish rule. The significance of this comparison is that the rule in question is significantly wider than that found in most other European legal systems, which tend to recognize only limited categories of unilateral promises or to impose a requirement of acceptance. Despite an authoritative restatement of the law by Lord President Gill in Regus (Maxim) Ltd v. Bank of Scotland plc [2013] CSIH 12, the Scottish courts have generally approached the concept in a restricted and restrictive way, although at least occasionally allowing it a role even in commercial cases. The decision of the UK Supreme Court in the Scottish appeal Royal Bank of Scotland v. Carlyle [2015] UKSC 13 poses a significant challenge to such caution, and the judges’ self-imposed restrictions are also inconsistent with the DCFR’s approach. On the other hand, the Scottish experience suggests that the DCFR’s requirement that notice of the promissory statement must reach the promisee to make it effective except when the statement is a public declaration may, in turn, be too demanding. It is also suggested, in opposition to a suggestion by Professor Martin Hogg, that from both the DCFR and the Scottish experience the conduct of the recipient after the statement is made may be relevant to the question of whether the statement can be treated as a binding promise.

The relationship between slavery, the slave trade and British economic development remains a contested field of eighteenth century history. This article examines one hitherto unexplored aspect of the subject, the significance, if any, of profits derived from the slave-based economies of the Atlantic in Scotland's Great Leap Forward in the later eighteenth century. It is argued that because of the distinctive nature of Scottish development, compared to that of England, and the intimate connections between Scotland and plantation economies the question does merit serious consideration. The article, however, supports the traditional view that slave trading direct from Scottish ports was very limited, although Scottish merchants and mariners were often heavily involved in slave trafficking from London, Bristol and Liverpool. The key Scottish link was with the tobacco and sugar trades, plantation ownership in the Caribbean and as merchants, physicians, attorneys and overseers in the plantation economies. It is argued that in terms of both capital transfers and market opportunities slavery can indeed be considered one of the factors facilitating development in Scotland and was possibly a much more significant influence north of the border than in the industrialisation of England.

BackgroundHealthcare cost management strategies are limited in number and resource intensive. Budget constraints in the National Health Service Scotland (NHS Scotland) apply pressure on regional health boards to improve efficiency while preserving quality.MethodsWe developed a technical method to assist health systems to reduce operating costs, called continuous value management (CVM). Derived from lean accounting and employing quality improvement (QI) methods, the approach allows for management to reduce or repurpose resources to improve efficiency. The primary outcome measure was the cost per patient admitted to the ward in British pounds (£).InterventionsThe first step of CVM is developing a standard care model. Teams then track system performance weekly using a tool called the ‘box score’, and improve performance using QI methods with results displayed on a visual management board. A 29-bed inpatient respiratory ward in a mid-sized hospital in NHS Scotland pilot tested the method.ResultsWe included 5806 patients between October 2016 and May 2018. During the 18-month pilot, the ward realised a 21.8% reduction in cost per patient admitted to the ward (from an initial average level of £807.70 to £631.50 as a new average applying Shewhart control chart rules, p<0.0001), and agency nursing spend decreased by 30.8%. The ward realised a 28.9% increase in the number of patients admitted to the ward per week. Other quality measures (eg, staff satisfaction) were sustained or improved.ConclusionCVM methods reduced the cost of care while improving quality. Most of the reduction came by way of reduced bank nursing spend. Work is under way to further test CVM and understand leadership behaviours supporting scale-up.

Since 2018, the Palestinian Museum in Ramallah has been digitising items from small institutions and private individuals in Palestine as part of their Digital Archive project. In 2019, a partnership was established with the British Library in London with a view to setting up the first paper conservation studio in the West Bank at the Museum. Library conservators provided training for a conservator and conservation manager from the Museum in paper conservation skills specific to the demands of digitisation projects. Initial training in London was followed up by ongoing distance mentoring as well as a visit by British Library conservators to Ramallah, in which conservation volunteers were also trained. This article details the aims of the collaboration, the challenges of putting together appropriate training programmes to be delivered in very limited time frames and the outcomes of the project thus far.

Despite the extensive attention given to second and recreation homes in rural areas, their urban appearance has had only limited examination. This paper focuses on the trend as it is manifested in London and suggests urban second homes are an emerging phenomenon in contemporary cities. Drawing links between recreation homes and other aspects of mobility and dwelling in the global metropolis, the phenomenon is situated beyond local housing markets and placed in the context of globalization and urban restructuring. The part-time dwelling patterns it introduces are shown to challenge attempts to define and evaluate its spread. Additionally, the cross-spatial nature of urban second homes turns their owners into temporal occupants of several built environments simultaneously. They are thus defined both as a product and an emerging force in global cities, and as such beg unique attention. The phenomenon calls for the development of effective monitoring and tracking systems for addressing its development in cities. Lessons from the rural experience are used to propose policy approaches and the challenges posed by property market environment are emphasized. It is concluded that the transnational nature of urban second homes, and the inter-city connections they form and represent, call for cooperation between cities in addressing them. This may allow the creation of a global data-base and policy-bank as part of the challenge to maintain sustainable cities in the face of disappearing national borders.

Not long ago periodicals specializing in the field of law and finance revealed some details of fraudulent actions connected with the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR). In a certain moment it seemed that the scandal with LIBOR manipulations would not lead to any serious reforms, including those of the legal nature, and the outcome would be limited to separate sanctions against several large European and American banks. However, the European Union in full conformity with the purposes of its financial services policy has drafted new regulatory acts which will come into force in the near future and will allow combating more efficiently with various kinds of market abuse.

Abstract This chapter examines the consolidation of the gold standard during the nineteenth century. This took place through legislation designed to ‘perfect’ the system, but was greatly aided by banking crises, especially that of 1825–6, which saw many people lose money when their low-denomination banknotes suddenly became valueless, thus instilling a widespread hostility to paper money in England. A ban on low-denomination banknotes, while widely welcomed in England, created such strong resistance in Scotland that the government withdrew a similar plan for both Scotland and Ireland. In the same year, the last monetary difference between Britain and Ireland was removed when the old Irish units of account were abolished and the Irish copper coinage was replaced with British coin in a shambolic process. By the last half of the century everyday experience of the monetary system had become completely unproblematic for the first time throughout the United Kingdom, with coins and notes of stable value in adequate supply in the required denominations. Increasingly attributed to the provisions of Sir Robert Peel’s Banking Acts of 1844 and 1845, the system appeared both natural and timeless, admired by people of all nations, classes and political persuasions in the UK, including the nascent labour movement. Critiques of the system—generally incoherent and poorly developed—attracted miniscule support. Meanwhile, the internationalization of the sterling gold standard, and the global financial hegemony of London, made the system a source of national pride, while raising anxieties about the ‘cosmopolitan’ nature of many of its activities and actors.

Craig’s work as an agent for the Leith Banking Company is represented in much of his surviving correspondence and presents a picture of the working life of a common enough 19^th-century figure in Scotland - a local lawyer who was also a bank agent. As well as the local branch of the Leith Bank, Craig ran the Galashiels Savings Bank which was intended to assist the ‘labouring classes’ and was part of a significant savings bank movement of the period. Banking saw Craig heavily engaged in the Borders Fairs which were the key sites of commercial activity and for which ready cash was required, often a matter of tension with the bank’s head office in Leith. He was also able to grant loans to textile and other businesses and run a range of banking services including the discounting for cash of bills of exchange. Credit-referencing forms an interesting branch of his activities both locally and in his relationship with the London bankers, Barnetts, Hoare & Co.

London, by virtue of its large population, has long been the dominant city within the UK. It has had a number of forms of government since the mid-19th century including, most recently, the creation of a mayor and assembly (the Greater London Authority (GLA)). This post-2000 system created a form of devolution within England, albeit a more limited one than in Scotland and Wales. The office of Mayor of London is now well established and has delivered a number of significant policy changes since inception. On occasion, the mayor has proved sufficiently powerful to prevail over the Government. London’s difference and economic success has led people in other parts of the country to feel that perhaps the capital is over-dominant and problematic. Londoners themselves feel a sense of difference, begging the question of how far the city could move towards further devolution or even to become a separate ‘city state’.

Abstract This chapter examines the Scottish monetary revolution, which emerged from attempts by the Scottish elite to solve the country’s chronic economic and monetary problems. Bank of Scotland was founded in 1695 in an attempt to alleviate the scarcity of money. It differed from its English counterpart in crucial respects, with very different implications for Scotland’s social relationships, power structures, and popular beliefs about money. The chapter argues that the monetary union of the two countries that accompanied the political union of 1707 was a key episode in Scotland’s monetary revolution, and was rendered uncontroversial by the Company of Scotland’s attempt to found a colony at Darien, whose disastrous failure triggered the final ruin of Scotland’s monetary system. The process of monetary union and the distribution of ‘the Equivalent’ are analysed to demonstrate aspects of Scottish monetary nationalism. The chapter concludes by examining the development of Scotland’s banking system in the eighteenth century. While the system’s distinctiveness is obvious, the chapter shows that Scottish banks became ever more deeply linked with British government debt and networks of credit radiating from London, giving Scotland a key role in one of Britain’s first modern, systemic financial crises in 1772. It also shows that, despite Scottish banks’ unique circulation of low-denomination banknotes, scarcity of money remained a serious problem for most Scots.

This chapter talks about Ron Kalifa, who was working at the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) with a mission to turn the group created by disgraced banker Fred Goodwin into a payments powerhouse when the financial crisis hit. It cites public company Worldpay's merge with an American rival, Vantiv, which acquired a huge portfolio of new American clients and became one of the biggest payments providers in the world. It also describes the rise of Worldpay out of the embers of the financial crisis as a parable of how Britain's leadership as the originator of the financial technology that now drives the global banking system. The chapter looks at the acumen and trading skills that made the City of London the biggest exporter of financial services on earth and is now turning it into a fintech champion. The Worldpay saga says a great deal about the skill set and culture that has made financial services the most valuable wealth-creating sector of the UK economy.
