Bankepk : The National Bank of New Zealand (Limited). First Issue-£200,000, in 10,000 Original Shares To be incorporated under the Joint Stock Companies Acts, wlh limited liability, and with power to increase. The amount called up will be £5 per share, payable as follows :-5s on Epplication, 5s on-allotment, and in calls not excoeding 5.. per share, at inte-v.iis of not less than one month, unless decided otherwiio b) general meeting. Prt-pajment will he accepted on such terms as the Directors miv from time to time determine. 'Ihe preferenti*! right is reserved to the holders ot the origiral shares to subscribe for an equal number, which may be i.tutd if oesirable, upon the increase of business, but only *t such dates and upon such terms as to j.ren_ium. &c i>s rn__y be fixed by genernl meeting of the shareholdess Ihe remaining 10,000 shares are intended to be offered in London. The Company is established not only for transacting the ordinary business of Loan Companies with respect to landed proptrty, but also with _; view to making advances rep&yaMe by instalments, as in Building Aseociations, a style of advance piofitable, and an o safe, by rea-sen of the pradu-d leau^tion of tho loan. That there is ample room for the present C unjany without interference with existing institutions, is shewn by the f>.et that the iatter we unable to supply the increasing demantJ tor money at aiv»n.-.icg rate* The further objects of this Company ac to receive moneys at interest on denosit, and by the is.-sue of de bentures. The rrincipje oi the i-aymeut of cij i'.al by moderate inHalrue.ns i- adopted as providing for the gradual progress of business, and as forming a con veniens ir-ode of investment of shßicholciers. It is somewhat sinular that no organisation has hitherto been formed, in the Frovince of Canterbury, suitable alike for large as well as for small investors, and yet the latter havo, by association in Building Societies, under many disadvantages, achieved mo.c profitable results thdn the largest ind;vi ual capital ists. »uch societies, however, While of great service in promoting se'tiement aud being at vhe same tune sources of considerable profit 10 investors, are open to various objections The shires are.of uucert -in valu. aDd unmarketable in their Dature Investors who may be desirous of realising, aremtt with the diih culty caused by the absence of a standard m«ke value, aDd consequently are compelled eituer to hold or perhaps to quit at a loss The adpancfS are almost confined to town property, and are upon the principle of gradual repayment only; while the.pecurity of rural land is usually preferred by investors, and m*ny borrowers desire fixed terms of two j ca, s and upwards. It may also fee here mentioned that the latter style of advance in fixed sums under £300 (which comma..ds the highest rate of interest) is not usually undertaken by the Loan Companies hereafter referred to. i While the adoption of gradual payments of share capital will enable those persons who have hitheito invested only in Building Societies to join this Com pany, there are many persons in the community whose means permit of their investing larger amounts, and to whom, therefore, this Company will commend it self as placing their capitai upon a convenient aud readily realisable basis, free srom trouble in manage ment and delay in investment. In the receipts of deposits at interest, and in the issue of debentures, this company, affording as itwiil thorough security with the most convenient arrange ments, may confidently expect public support. Perhaps it is unnecessary to dwell upon ihe safe and profitable nature of loan business, particularly it< the Province of Canterbury. The following informa tion (taken from the latest issue of Westgarths " Co lonial Securities Circular," dated Lor.don, 11th June, 1875) will, however, exhibit the prosperity of the two Companies in business here. New Zealand Trust and Loan Company (Limited)— Nominal capital, £500,000; paid-up, £100,000. Shares —Nominal amount, £25; paid-up, £5. Value—£7 5s to £7 15sl Shares on London Register, £442,175. Average dividend per annum during last ten half years, 10 per cent. ; reserve fund, £42,000. Trust and Agency of Australasia (Limited)— Nominal, capital, £500,000; paid-up, £50,000 (and £163,000 at 6 per cent, preferential interest only). Sharesi— v omina amount, £10 ; paid-up, £1. Value £1 15s to £2 ss. Shares on London Registfr, all Average dividend on original shares during last ten half-years, 20 per cent, per annum; reserve fund, £50,000. As shewn by the large sums of undivided profits, wisely reserved, the actual rates per cent, per annum earned by the above Companies have considerably exceeded the dividends declared. The Provisional Directors anticipate that, with the advantages of local influence and an increasing field for investment, a fair measure of success may also be enjoyed by this Company, and its original shares be come highly valued. The working expenses will be adapted to a growing business, and based upon the lowest scale consistent with efficiency. The evident opening for a local institution of a more convenient nature than those existing, calculated to combine the advantages before stated, and to admit of any expansion which may be found suitable, has decided the Provisional Directors in undertaking- its formation. Deposits on any application for shares not allotted will be returned in full. Applications, with deposits, will be received at the various branches of the National Bank of New Zea land (Limited); or to ALEXANDER SAUNDERS, 2, Insurance Buildings, Queen-street.
