Scope and Content
Administrative / Biographical History
The Glasgow Stock Exchange , Scotland, was founded in 1844 with 28 members. In its early years, most of its business was conducted on behalf of wealthy private investors. However, by 1918 this had changed, the majority of its business being undertaken for banks and insurance companies. By 1930 , the Glasgow Stock Exchange had 277 members. It is unclear as to when the Stock Exhange ceased trading but it appears to be in the late 1960s.
