Financial Battle for Beijing: the Great Powers and Loans to China, 1895–1898

Original language description

Its defeat in the war with Japan (1894–1895) was not just a military and political one for China, but also a financial catastrophe. Beijing had already been forced to take out loans to pay for the course of the war. Loan provision opened up the opportunity to exert greater political and economic influence on China, and a battle between two international groupings developed. One side was a group of four large Russian and six French banks, and on the other was a syndicate made up of Britain’s Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation and Germany’s Deutsch-Asiatische Bank. The course and outcome of the competition to provide Chinese loans between 1895 and 1898 was very closely connected to the battle of the Great Powers and other countries to define their spheres of influence and acquire economic concessions, which came to a head at the very end of the 1890s.
