  • 3 акционерный банк

    1. joint-stock bank

     

    акционерный банк
    Банк в Великобритании, который является открытой (публичной) компанией с ограниченной ответственностью (public limited company), а не частным банком (или партнерством). В 19 в. многие частные банки разорились; однако акционерные банки укрепились в основном за счет слияний и расчетливых инвестиций. В наше время их называют коммерческими банками (commercial banks) или high street banks - дословно: банки на главной улице города.

  • 12 Cross, Charles Frederick

    [br]
    b. 11 December 1855 Brentwood, Middlesex, England
    d. 15 April 1935 Hove, England
    [br]
    English chemist who contributed to the development of viscose rayon from cellulose.
    [br]
    Cross was educated at the universities of London, Zurich and Manchester. It was at Owens College, Manchester, that Cross first met E.J. Bevan and where these two first worked together on the nature of cellulose. After gaining some industrial experience, Cross joined Bevan to set up a partnership in London as analytical and consulting chemists, specializing in the chemistry and technology of cellulose and lignin. They were at the Jodrell laboratory, Kew Gardens, for a time and then set up their own laboratory at Station Avenue, Kew Gardens. In 1888, the first edition of their joint publication A Textbook of Paper-making, appeared. It went into several editions and became the standard reference and textbook on the subject. The long introductory chapter is a discourse on cellulose.
    In 1892, Cross, Bevan and Clayton Beadle took out their historic patent on the solution and regeneration of cellulose. The modern artificial-fibre industry stems from this patent. They made their discovery at New Court, Carey Street, London: wood-pulp (or another cheap form of cellulose) was dissolved in a mixture of carbon disulphide and aqueous alkali to produce sodium xanthate. After maturing, it was squirted through fine holes into dilute acid, which set the liquid to give spinnable fibres of "viscose". However, it was many years before the process became a commercial operation, partly because the use of a natural raw material such as wood involved variations in chemical content and each batch might react differently. At first it was thought that viscose might be suitable for incandescent lamp filaments, and C.H.Stearn, a collaborator with Cross, continued to investigate this possibility, but the sheen on the fibres suggested that viscose might be made into artificial silk. The original Viscose Spinning Syndicate was formed in 1894 and a place was rented at Erith in Kent. However, it was not until some skeins of artificial silk (a term to which Cross himself objected) were displayed in Paris that textile manufacturers began to take an interest in it. It was then that Courtaulds decided to investigate this new fibre, although it was not until 1904 that they bought the English patents and developed the first artificial silk that was later called "rayon". Cross was also concerned with the development of viscose films and of cellulose acetate, which became a rival to rayon in the form of "Celanese". He retained his interest in the paper industry and in publishing, in 1895 again collaborating with Bevan and publishing a book on Cellulose and other technical articles. He was a cultured man and a good musician. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1917.

  • 13 Ingersoll, Simon

    [br]
    b. 3 March 1818 Stamford, Connecticut, USA
    d. 24 July 1894 Stamford, Connecticut, USA
    [br]
    American mechanic, inventor of a rock drill
    [br]
    Ingersoll worked on his father's farm and spent much of his time carrying out all kinds of mechanical experiments until 1839, when he went to Long Island, New York, to work on another farm. Having returned home in 1858, he received several patents for different mechanical devices, but he did not know how to turn his inventive talent into economic profit. His patents were sold to others for money to continue his work and support his family. In 1870, working again on Long Island, he by chance came into contact with New York City's largest contractor, who urged him to design a mechanical rock drill in order to replace hand drills in the rock-excavation business. Within one year Ingersoll built several models and a full-size machine at the machine shop of Henry Clark Sergeant, who contributed several improvements. They secured a joint patent in 1871, which was soon followed by a patent for a rock drill with tappet-valve motion.
    Although the Ingersoll Drill Company was established, he again sold the patent rights and went back to Stamford, where he continued his inventive work and gained several more patents for improving the rock drill. However, he never understood how to make a fortune from his patents, and he died almost penniless. His former partner, Sergeant, who had formed his own drill company on the basis of an entirely novel valve motion which led to compressed air being used as a power source, in 1888 established the Ingersoll- Sergeant Drill Company, which in 1905 merged with Rand Drill Company, which had been a competitor, to form the Ingersoll-Rand Company. This merger led to many achievements in manufacturing rock drills and air compressors at a time when there was growing demand for such machinery.

  • 14 Mylne, Robert

    [br]
    b. 1733 Edinburgh, Scotland d. 1811
    [br]
    Scottish engineer, architect and bridge-builder.
    [br]
    Mylne was the eldest son of Thomas Mylne, Surveyor to the City of Edinburgh. Little is known of his early education. In 1754, at the age of 21, he left Edinburgh by sea and journeyed to Rome, where he attended the Academy of St Luke. There he received the first prize for architecture. In 1759 he left Rome to travel back to England, where he arrived in time for the competition then going ahead for the design and building of a new bridge across the Thames at Blackfriars. Against 68 other competitors, Mylne won the competition; the work took some ten years to complete.
    In 1760 he was appointed Engineer and Architect to the City of London, and in 1767 Joint Engineer to the New River Company together with Henry Mill, who died within a few years to leave Mylne to become Chief Engineer in 1770. Thus for the next forty years he was in charge of all the works for the New River Company between Clerkenwell and Ware, the opposite ends of London's main water supply. By 1767 he had also been appointed to a number of other important posts, which included Surveyor to Canterbury Cathedral and St Paul's Cathedral. In addition to undertaking his responsibilities for these great public buildings, he designed many private houses and villas all over the country, including several buildings for the Duke of Argyll on the Inverary Castle estate.
    Mylne was also responsible for the design of a great number of bridges, waterworks and other civil engineering works throughout Britain. Called in to advise on the Norwich city waterworks, he fell out with Joseph Bramah in a somewhat spectacular dispute.
    For much of his life Mylne lived at the Water House at the New River Head at Islington, from which he could direct much of the work on that waterway that came under his supervision. He also had residences in New Bridge Street and, as Clerk of Works, at Greenwich Hospital. Towards the end of his life he built himself a small house at Amwell, a country retreat at the outer end of the New River. He kept a diary from 1762 to 1810 which includes only brief memoranda but which shows a remarkable diligence in travelling all over the country by stagecoach and by postchaise. He was a freemason, as were many of his family; he married Mary Home on 10 September 1770, with whom he had ten children, four of whom survived into adulthood.

    SUBJECT AREA: Metallurgy
    [br]
    b. 6 August 1766 East Dereham, Norfolk, England
    d. 22 December 1828 London, England
    [br]
    English chemist and metallurgist who discovered palladium and rhodium, pioneer in the fabrication of platinum.
    [br]
    Wollaston qualified in medicine at Cambridge University but gave up his practice in 1800 to devote himself to chemistry and metallurgy, funded from the profits from making malleable platinum. In partnership with Smithson Tennant, a friend from his Cambridge days, he worked on the extraction of platinum by dissolving it in aqua regia. In 1802 he found that in addition to platinum the solution contained a new metal, which he named palladium. Two years later he identified another new metal, rhodium.
    Wollaston developed a method of forming platinum by means of powder metallurgy and was the first to produce malleable and ductile platinum on a commercial scale. He produced platinum vessels for sulphuric acid manufacture and scientific apparatus such as crucibles. He devised an elegant method for forming fine platinum wire. He also applied his inventive talents to improving scientific apparatus, including the sextant and microscope and a reflecting goniometer for measuring crystal angles. In 1807 he was appointed Joint Secretary of the Royal Society with Sir Humphry Davy, which entailed a heavy workload and required them to referee all the papers submitted to the Society for publication.
    Wollaston's output of platinum began to decline after 1822. Due to ill health he ceased business operations in 1828 and at last made public the details of his secret platinum fabrication process. It was fully described in the Bakerian Lecture he delivered to the Royal Society on 28 November 1828, shortly before his death.

    коммерческий банк
    Находящийся в частном владении британский банк, получивший, в соответствии с Законом о банковской деятельности 1987 г. (см.: Banking Acts 1979 and 1987 (Законы о банковской деятельности 1979 и 1987 гг.), лицензию на оказание широкого спектра финансовых услуг населению и фирмам. Основная деятельность заключается в ведении чековых текущих счетов, принятии депозитных вкладов, получении и выдаче наличных денег и кредитовании. Дополнительными услугами являются доверительное управление и исполнение завещаний, предложение иностранной валюты, покупка и продажа ценных бумаг, страхование, система кредитных карточек и управление личными пенсионными фондами. Коммерческие банки также конкурируют с финансовыми домами (finance houses) и торговыми банками (merchant banks) в предоставлении венчурного капитала и со строительными обществами (building society) на рынке закладных. В результате серии слияний число коммерческих банков постепенно сократилось. В настоящее время основными банками, имеющими общенациональную сеть отделений, являются Большая четверка (Big Four) (“Нэшнл Вестминстер”, “Барклэйз”, “Ллойде” и “Мидлэнд”), Королевский банк Шотландии, Банк Шотландии, “Ольстер Банк” и банк “Т. С. Б. Гроуп плк”. Коммерческие банки известны также как акционерные банки (joint-stock banks). См. также: clearing bank (клиринговый банк).

    коммерческий банк
    Универсальное кредитное учреждение, создаваемое для привлечения денежных средств и размещения их от своего имени на условиях возвратности и платности. По договорам с клиентами осуществляет их кассовое, расчетное обслуживание, факторинговые, лизинговые операции (см. Факторинг, Лизинг, Банковский лизинг), покупку и продажу ценных бумаг, операции по трасту, учет векселей, кредитование и др. Коммерческие банки — независимые негосударственные банки (хотя и не исключается какая-то доля участия в них государства), которые работают на свой страх и риск. Иными словами, если банк правильно организует дело — привлекает много вкладчиков и денег, находит надежных заемщиков, которые всегда вовремя отдают долги, с выгодой оказывает иные услуги клиентам, — тогда этот банк процветает и растет. В обратном случае — может и прогореть. Если банк плохо выполняет свои обязательства и нарушает законы государства, Центральный банк может отобрать у него лицензию, то есть официальное разрешение вести банковскую деятельность. Коммерческие банки составляют костяк всей кредитно-денежной системы страны. Через них проходят все расчеты между фирмами, организациями, частными лицами.

    1. last survivor policy

     

    полис последнего пережившего
    1. Полис страхования жизни двух или более людей, когда застрахованная сумма выплачивается по смерти последнего из них. См. также: joint-life and last survivor annuities (аннуитеты совместной жизни и последнего пережившего).
    2. Контракт (прежде называвшийся tontine (тонтина)), в соответствии с которым страхование жизни заключается группой людей, причем все из них на протяжении своей жизни платят страховые взносы в общий фонд. Никаких выплат не делается, пока из всей группы не остается в живых только один человек. В этом случае он получает все поступления по полису. Подобные контракты не заключаются в Великобритании, поскольку они подразумевают соблазн для членов группы убивать своих коллег, чтобы оказаться последним пережившим.
