Diversité et décentralisation des institutions du système financier français, 1800-1840

Pre-print, Working paper: This paper is the first chapter of a book forthcoming in January 2007 under the title Histoire du marché financier français au 19ème siècle (a history of the French capital market in the 19th century). He presents broadly the various main elements constituting the long term capital markets, excepting the stock-exchange (which is studied in the next chapter): the banks, the notaries and the network of the Treasury correspondents. We present the transition between the 18th and the 19th centuries and the main changes in the capital markets until the 1840s.
