Measures 8 7/8 x 5 3/4 in. OCLC 1064999617 "President Lincoln recognized that unreliable paper money and inadequate credit was problematic. Along with his Treasury Secretary Salmon P. Chase he conceived the national banking system and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to regulate and supervise it. On February 25 1863 President Lincoln signed The National Currency Act into law. The Act established the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency OCC charged with responsibility for organizing and administering a system of nationally chartered banks and a uniform national currency." The National Bank Act of 1863 provided for the federal charter and supervision of a system of banks known as national banks; they were to circulate a stable uniform national currency secured by federal bonds deposited by each bank with the comptroller of the currency often called the national banking administrator. The act regulated the minimum capital requirements of national banks the kinds of loans they could make and the reserves that were to be held against notes and deposits; it also provided for the supervision and examination of banks and for the protection of noteholders. .
