Fort Argus Bank is open for business!

Time for some history

"In the west, pawnbroking existed in the Ancient Greek and Roman Empires.
Most contemporary Western law on the subject is derived from the Roman jurisprudence.
As the empire spread its culture, pawnbroking went with it.
Likewise, in the East, the business model existed in China 3000 years ago no different than today, through the ages strictly regulated by Imperial or other authorities."

"Pawnbrokerage arrived in England with William the Conqueror, but known by the Italian name, Lombard.
In 1338, Edward III pawned his jewels to raise money for his war with France.
King Henry V did much the same in 1415.
Queen Isabella of Spain pawned her jewelry to finance Christopher Columbus's first voyage to the New World"
 
"Crusaders, predominantly in France, brokered their land holdings to monasteries and diocese for funds to supply, outfit, and transport their armies to the Holy Land. Instead of outright repayment the Church reaped a certain amount of crop returns for a certain amount of seasons, which could additionally be re-exchanged in a type of equity."
