En este trabajo se examina la evolución de los sistemas bancarios europeos, con especial foco en los casos francés y alemán, y tomando como referencia el modelo de la banca inglesa. El siglo XIX presenció en el noroeste europeo un fuerte impulso de la industrialización conjuntamente con una gran apertura comercial y financiera. Desde un modelo de banca privada extendido por toda Europa desde el siglo XVIII y aun antes, y que tenía como sus principales exponentes a la Merchant Banking de Londres y la Haute Banque de Paris, volcados a los negocios internacionales y la deuda pública, se va a pasar a los establecimientos bancarios por acciones que van a acompañar las transformaciones económicas y asegurar su financiamiento, bajo diversas modalidades según los países.
