When Did Banks Originate?
Banking history traces back to ancient Babylon and Egypt with temples as deposits, Rome establishing a Forum money changers space in 210 B.C., and Italy's bench banking giving rise to the word bank. Venice 1587 saw Banco di Rialto offering deposits and checks, Amsterdam 1609 issued receipts as money, and England's goldsmiths evolved into a Bank of England monopoly by 1604 with formal U.S. beginnings in 1782 via the Bank of North America.
