In spite of its importance to economic development, much remains unknown about commercial banking in early America. The Historical Statistics of the United States gives the number of banks, their capital stock, bank note circulation, deposits, and specie for only four years prior to 1830, and these data are far from complete. Economic and financial historians generalize about this period from statistics presented in Albert Gallatin's Considerations on the Currency of the United States and from the reports of the Treasury Department, summarized in the Annual Report of the Comptroller of the Currency, 1876.

Robert Triffin played a key role in the debates on European monetary integration, especially as the monetary expert of Monnet’s Action Committee for the United States of Europe. He developed proposals for European monetary cooperation, especially a European Reserve Fund and a European currency unit, inspired by his experience of the European Payments Union. In his view, a European Reserve Fund could be constituted by pooling 10% to 20% of the international reserves of the member states’ central banks. A key moment was the 1969 Hague summit when Triffin, via Jean Monnet, provided the German chancellor Willy Brandt with a plan for European monetary integration. Moreover, through his activities and connections in the world of commercial banking and finance, Triffin also actively promoted the European currency unit as a parallel currency in financial transactions and markets.

An oligopoly is defined as a market structure with a small number of firms that dominate an industry, of which none can keep the other from significantly influencing the market. This market structure is distinctly different from other market forms. In today’s market, the oligopoly structure is the most common market structure. It can be argued that the few pharmaceutical companies who market, manufacture, and distribute opioids all over the world constitute “opioid oligopoly.” Bachtell has reported that dozens of opioid manufacturers, distributors, pharmacies, and doctors turn a blind eye to the opioid crisis swamping the United States.

This chapter presents a critical analysis of China’s nascent but fast-evolving mobile game market. Through a penetrating examination of the historical evolution of the market from the late 1990s to the dawn of the 3G era, it offers insight on the changing dynamics of interplay as well as major trends of concentration and internationalization among key sectors of the Chinese mobile market structure. By casting findings in the comparative lenses of major global mobile markets in the United States, Japan and South Korea, the chapter contributes to an in-depth understanding of the universalizing features and the peculiarities of China’s mobile games and gamers.
