may 17, 1930 - Bank for International Settlements
Description:
They tried again. In 1933 there was the International Bankers Conference in London centeredaround the Bank of International Settlements, the Bank of England. Sixty-six nations had been
a part of it, all with the desire that the Great Depression would be solved by moving sovereignty
economically from nation states into officially essential bankers’ codery under the Bank of
England. And the only reason for the failure after six months was that Franklin Roosevelt pulled
the US delegations out of all participation. It all just fell apart.
