Abstract

Cette contribution s'intéresse au fonctionnement de la banque de la Martinique dans la période de transition qui a suivi l'abolition de l'esclavage. L'article souligne le succès mitigé de cette institution en matière d'intermédiation financière. Si la banque a pu rationaliser la distribution de crédit et répondre aux contraintes de financement posées par la transition, elle a progressivement négligé sa vocation agricole initiale au profit d'une activité essentiellement commerciale. L'article met ainsi en évidence les conflits d'intérêts entre le monde agricole et celui du commerce. Il montre que cette situation conflictuelle a rendu d'autant plus délicate la gestion des problèmes monétaires rencontrés dans la période par cette économie mono-productrice.
