Abstract
A merger occurs when two or more companies combine to form one, where the buying firm absorbs all the asset and liabilities of the selling firms. This paper discusses the necessity for bank mergers in order to cope with the changing industry. It examines the six main reasons why companies merge and the different types of merger that exist. It uses as an example, the successful merger between Nations Bank and Bank of America.
From the Paper
"Larger mergers may create larger assets for the company, but bankers are still left in the dark with what to do with those assets. These days, auto dealer are more likely to handle auto loans, credit cards are received through the mail, and mortgage brokers can provide great deals on mortgages. Not to mention the invention of online banking. Now there are online services that will search the Internet to get the best prices on a CD?s, credit cards, consumer loans and mortgages. Banks are starting to find that they are now not only in competition with other banks, but with software companies as well."

Abstract
This paper examines the merger process of two major banks - Nationsbank and Bank of America. It focuses on the issue of change, showing how it benefits the organization as a whole. The concept of coping with change in an organization is analyzed in the context of this merger.
From the Paper
"An organization is an ever evolving and changing entity; and, all organizations undergo changes at some stage in the history of their existence. The environment in which an organization operates and functions in today?s dynamic market is also constantly changing. Change is normal and life?s one salient certainty. While change is good for an organization?it helps stimulate the organization to grow?change can be difficult to implement in an organization (Mukherjee and Mukherjee, 2001). Technological and equipment change is easier to handle than changes in the human resources. More than physical and other resources, changing the mindset and the human factor may ultimately come to represent the new competitive edge for a corporation. How an individual, a group or a department relates to change determines the achievement of success for any organization."

From the Paper
"Introduction
The 1980s saw vast changes in the banking community as banks and savings and loans, challenged by deregulation, expanded their markets and business services. Driven by the need to build their investment base in order to finance these new activities, some thrifts began investing in junk bonds (popularized by Michael Milken), which contributed to the meltdown in the industry in the late 1980s. Continental Illinois, which would later become Continental Bank, got caught up instead in a loss of more than $1 billion in a deal that fell through; in 1984, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) stepped in and provided the bailout the bank needed to survive. The late 1980s and early 1990s were a roller coaster ride for the bank, which was hailed as engineering a dramatic turnaround, then second guessed when the turnaround did not perform.."

From the Paper
"Introduction
Mergers and acquisitions during the 1980s tended to take the form of hostile takeovers, often financed by well-publicized "junk" bonds, which resulted in the merged organization being sold off in order to increase cash flow. The 1980s were also a tumultuous time in the banking industry as numerous institutions failed or were investigated, some in part because of their financing of mergers and acquisitions in other industries. This represented a strong opportunity for other institutions who were able to take over deposits of the failed organizations and thus gain additional financial strength through acquisition. At the same time, the banking industry was increasingly affected by globalization, with Japanese banks in particular posing competitive threats to American business banking, and European banking interests also..."

From the Paper
"Recent years have seen a great deal of merger and acquisition (M&A)activity in the banking industry, a result of deregulation and the desire of thrifts to take advantage of the ability to establish interstate operations. The financial institutions involved argue that the move toward consolidation will result in economies of scale and savings being passed on to consumers, but consumer advocates argue that there will be a reduction in the level of service provided to customers and eventually, because of a lack of competition, an increase in costs to consumers. This research examines the environment which has led to the mergers, several recent mergers which have occurred and considers the cost-cutting arguments put forth by the thrift industry."

The Establishment of the Bank of Canada, 2006.
The history of the establishment of the Bank of Canada.

Abstract
This paper reviews the history of the Bank of Canada, established in 1935 for a variety of pressing economic and political reasons, but the economic turmoil caused by the Great Depression was perhaps the most important factor. The Bank was established relatively late in Canada's history because of little popular support among Canadians for a central bank, especially in Western Canada. The paper further discusses how during the the first fifty years of Confederation, Canadians had shown little interest in establishing a central bank. The remarkable economic expansion between 1900 and 1913 had spread general prosperity and most Canadians considered the current banking system sufficient even though economic experts were concerned about the inflexibility of that system.

Abstract
This paper points out that any of a number of factors can be used to explain the rise of the Bank of Canada in the middle 1930s. The paper then suggests that, even after examining all of the questionable initiatives advanced by the Canadian government and by Canada chartered banks throughout the late 1920s and into the 1930s, it must still be said that excessive cash borrowing and excessive or just plain wrong-headed credit dispensation lay at the heart of the decision to create a central bank that would control and regulate the Canadian banking industry.

Abstract
This paper will argue that the formative years of banking in Canada were critical in establishing the unusually high influence and authority of chartered banks in this country. By making brief comparisons and contrasts with the English and American banking systems, the uniqueness of the Canadian situation will be revealed. In the final analysis, it will be clear that when the federal government was to play an active role in the economy, the chartered banking system needed an overhaul. By the time of the Great Depression, there were simply too many chefs in the country's economic kitchen. With each of them struggling for power, it was impossible to create coherent policy and economic unity.
