These activities generated high returns until the crisis of 1930, when the devaluation of Argentina’s currency and the stagnation of the real estate business marked the end of British investment cycle. The article analyzes the trajectory and profitability of two British companies, The River Plate & General Investment Trust and The Mortgage Company of the River Plate, which operated in Argentina from 1888 to 1950, when they moved to other regions. Both firms were controlled by the River Plate Trust, the largest British business group during the boom of foreign investment in Argentina. The analysis will be based on files and documents of the selected companies from River & Mercantile Trust Records. Las actividades financieras e hipotecarias constituyeron uno de los principales destinos de la inversión británica en América Latina y Argentina durante la primera economía global. Estas actividades generaron elevada rentabilidad hasta la crisis de 1930, cuando la devaluación de la moneda argentina y el estancamiento de los negocios inmobiliarios marcaron el final del ciclo de inversión británico. El artículo analiza la trayectoria y la rentabilidad de las empresas británicas The River Plate & General Investment Trust, y The Mortgage Company of the River Plate, que operaron en el país desde 1888 hasta los años 1950, cuando reorientaron sus negocios a otra región. Dado que ambas firmas eran controladas por River Plate Trust, el grupo británico de inversión más importante en Argentina, se analiza la relación de estas firmas con la matriz del grupo en base a la documentación de la empresas disponible en la colección River & Mercantile Trust Records.
