Abstract

This work tackles the creative process and the development of the savings banks and trust companies throughout the 19th century, coinciding with the changes that implied the introduction of the regulations and the institutions of economic liberalism in Spain. We study the double charitable financial functions which was fulfilled by gaining control over the savings deposits. Those deposits come mainly from the low income urban groups, and later transferred in the turn of loans to small borrowers in industry and commerce.
