John Law - The First Financial Engineer - A History of Paper Money and The Mississippi Bubble
John Law was a Scottish monetary reformer and originator of the “Mississippi scheme” for the development of French territories in America.
After killing an adversary in a duel, he fled to Amsterdam, where he was a professional gambler and learned about banking operations. A decade later he returned to Scotland and wrote his best-known work, Money and Trade Considered, with a Proposal for Supplying the Nation with Money (available on Amazon at this link https://amzn.to/2Wkts7p). He submitted his banking reform plan to the English and Scottish parliaments, but it was rejected.
After several other rejections, Law received permission in 1716 to try his plan in France. The French government was heavily in debt as a result of the extensive wars of Louis XIV, who died in 1715; and Law’s program...

John Law's Mississippi Company in One Minute: From Economic Miracle to Bubble and Ultimately Scam
John Law's Mississippi Bubble took place in France at pretty much the same time as John Blunt's South Sea Bubble took Great Britain by storm.
After the long reign of Louis XIV, France was deeply indebted and desperate. Economist John Law however came up with a scheme and created the Mississippi Company. The Mississippi Company was supposed to benefit from France's alleged riches in the Louisiana region but just like with the South Sea Company, the stories of prosperity surrounding the Mississippi Company were greatly exaggerated.
Furthermore, John Law took things one step further than John Blunt and even involved the newly created central bank of France in what ended up becoming the Mississippi scam. As we'll be finding out today, things got complicated quickly.

What was the Mississippi Bubble?
What was the Mississippi Bubble?
In the early 18th century, a visionary Scottish financier named John Law arrived in France with a grand plan to solve the country's financial problems. He founded the Banque Générale and the Compagnie d'Occident, which was granted a monopoly over all French trade with the Americas and East Indies. Law's grand plan was to use the Mississippi River as a major trade route, connecting the Americas with Europe and Asia, and promised investors great wealth and riches. However, as more and more people invested in the company, the value of its shares continued to rise, creating a speculative bubble. In 1720, the bubble burst, and the value of the shares plummeted, leaving many investors penniless. The Mississippi Bubble was one of the first modern financial bubble...

John Law and the Mississippi Bubble
It was one of the most sensational get-rich-quick schemes heard of in a long time, but it eventually burst over the head of its originator, John Law. This "rags to riches to rags" story, in which the plan was to open a bank and exchange banknotes (paper!) for gold at wildly inflated share prices, ends when John Law, having been cleaned out as a result of a rush to cash in the notes, is left broke and broken-hearted.

John Law was a Scottish monetary reformer and originator of the “Mississippi scheme” for the development of French territories in America.
After killing an adversary in a duel, he fled to Amsterdam, where he was a professional gambler and learned about banking operations. A decade later he returned to Scotland and wrote his best-known work, Money and Trade Considered, with a Proposal for Supplying the Nation with Money (available on Amazon at this link https://amzn.to/2Wkts7p). He submitted his banking reform plan to the English and Scottish parliaments, but it was rejected.
After several other rejections, Law received permission in 1716 to try his plan in France. The French government was heavily in debt as a result of the extensive wars of Louis XIV, who died in 1715; and Law’s program, which promised to reduce the public debt, held obvious appeal. With Law, however, lowering the public debt was somewhat incidental. He shared with his mercantilist contemporaries a belief that money is a creative force in economic development and that an increase in its quantity would stimulate a larger national product and would increase national power. He differed from other mercantilists in looking upon a central bank as an agency for manufacturing money in the form of bank notes that would circulate in place of gold and silver, which were scarce.
In Paris, Law founded a bank with authority to issue notes. Later he combined with his bank the Company of the West (better known as the Mississippi Company), which had exclusive privileges to develop the vast French territories in the Mississippi Valley of North America. Law’s plan worked well for a few years but ran afoul of speculative complications and political intrigue, neither of which were directly attributable to Law. As the author of the program, popularly known as the “Mississippi Bubble,” Law was responsible and was forced to flee France in 1720. He died in Venice a poor man.

In this video, we'll explore the causes and consequences of the Mississippi Bubble, its impact on the French economy and global economies, and how it led to the development of modern financial regulations and paper money. We'll also discuss the positive and negative effects of the Mississippi Bubble, its lessons for economists and historians, and whether it could happen again today.
