Crédit Lyonnais’s branches in Lille and Roubaix: [(deposits- credits) / credits] ratio, 1883–1913. 39 40 Convergence and Divergence of National Financial Systems In Paris, the Banque de France started to worry about that situation, and especially about the ‘ardour’ of the Roubaix manufacturers, about their ‘adventurous and entrepreneurial spirit’ and they deplored that ‘the heads of the financial societies tended to use their employees’ signatures with certain flippancy’. But one had to acknowledge rapidly that the crisis of its profits drove the Banque de France to impotence: it would be ‘undoubtedly very tricky’ to attempt to react against these local habits; and, unable ‘to change this trend’ or ‘to limit the extension’ of certain abuses, the Banque could not but adapt to the local rules.

Thus the Crédit du Nord (the only regional bank to be publicly incorporated) formed a constellation whereof the core, composed of groups like Kuhlmann (chemistry; a promoter of the bank since 1848), Agache (flax textile industry; a family allied to the Kuhlmanns since 1873), and the Mines de Lens,4 extended, in the 1890s, to the Mines de Carvin and to the wool industrial activities of Roubaix-Tourcoing … while strengthening the family character of the Board of Administration.
