Imperial Chinese Government Loans
The 5% Hukuang Railway Loan of 1911 was, according to author John M. Thomson, secured upon a first charge of salt, rice, and likin taxes of Hunan and Hupeh. This resulted in opposition from provincial governments as well as from a “rich merchant group who were advocates of the ‘Rights Recovery Movement’” who demanded cancellation of the Hukuang Railways Loan “mainly as they wished to promote their own business interests” and gain shares in various “infra-structure development programmes.”
Attempts by the central Imperial Government to “pacify the leaders” of the movement failed and opposition groups actively “mobilised students, workers and peasants to make protest against the Chinese Imperial Government.”

Chinese Government - Reorganization Gold Loan of 1913
The Reorganization Gold Loan of 1913 was for the capital sum of £25,000,000. The loan was, “…authorised by Presidential Order of 22nd April 1913 officially communicated by the Wai Chiao Pu1 to the Ministers in Peking of Great Britain, Germany, France, Russia and Japan.
The newly appointed President of the Republic of China, Yuan Shih Kai, initially approached Britain, France, Germany and United States of America seeking a substantial loan to assist the fledgling government of the Republic of China. Later this group was expanded to include Japan and Russia, but eventually the United States of America withdrew from participation, leaving five countries which agreed to assist the Chinese Government with financial aid.
The principal financial institutions which participated in the loan arrangements were the Deutsch-Asiatiche Bank, Banque de l’Indo-Chine and Russian Asiatic Bank. The Yokohama Specie Bank participated on behalf of Japan, but did not issue separate bonds, countersigned by the bank. Arrangements were made as to convertibility into Japanese Yen of the bearer bonds issued by the other four issuing banks. The banks all received 6% commission for handling this loan.

1911 5% Hukuang Railway Loan
The 5% Hukuang Railway Loan of 1911 was, according to author John M. Thomson, for the capital sum of £10,000,000 of which only the first £6,000,000 was issued.
The historical events linked to this loan included “opposition agreements coupled with public outrage at the Imperial Chinese Government’s decision to not only nationalize all of China’s Railways, but also to grant major concessions to foreigners, significantly contributed to the downfall of 3,000 years of imperial dynastic rule.,” according to Thomson. The financial institutions that handled the arrangements for the issuance of bearer bonds against the loan included:
The initial loan agreement was negotiated by the British & Chinese Corporation, however, French and German interests exerted pressure to be allowed to participate in the financing of the project. An intervention by U.S. President William H. Taft secured a share of the project for American capital enterprises.
