I have been doing some preliminary research on the origins
of the US stock market (Buttonwood Agreement 1792), and I’ve noticed that
along with government bonds, banks (along with insurance companies) have been historically
among the first private firms to issue stocks in the market. Anyone know why? To raise capital? Spread risk? The answer is probably
obvious, but I’m unsure. Thanks Jayson |
