Formed in 1799 with head office in Paris mostly issuing loans on mortgage. In 1803 during the stock exchange panic a large number of drafts on the bank defaulted as the Bank of France refused to rediscount them. Liquidation followed and a committee was formed by Laffon de Ladebat and Barrière to create another bank under the title Chavaignac et Cie. The liquidation lasted some 20 years. VF and rare.
