Lombard Street (1873)
Walter Bagehot (1826–1877) was a British economist and journalist, editor of The Economist for 17 years. His book Lombard Street (1873) analyzed the British banking and credit system and is considered the foundational text on the central bank's role as lender of last resort — a principle ('Bagehot's Dictum') that still guides central banks during liquidity crises today.
🧠 Core Philosophy
Liquidity and financial strength are the first line of defense — a company with a weak balance sheet can look fine right up until credit dries up.
❓ Key Question
"Does this company have enough liquidity to survive real stress?"
