The oldest merchant bank in the UK. Headquartered in London. It originated in 1763 when Francis Baring (1740-1810) and his brother founded John & Francis Baring & Co. in London. The company changed its name to its current name in 1806 and became a limited liability company in 1891. Initially, the bank was engaged in trading and banking, but in 1817 it undertook the issuance of bonds to pay the French indemnity, and its main business became intermediation for the issuance of foreign bonds. In the 19th century, it formed one of the leading merchant banks, along with Hambros and Rothschild, and dominated the London financial market.
