Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book publishes the secret committee's findings on the East India Company's financial status and affairs. The investigation covered the aftermath of the Seven Years' War (French and Indian War in America), requisitioned British troops, and the fallout from the 1769 famine in Bengal, which followed the company gaining diwani, or revenue-collecting rights, over Bengal, Bihar, and Orissa. The report gives a detailed account of the company's debts, credits, and effects for 1772 in England and India, as well as the debts, credits, and effects of the company abroad, at their presidencies in India, in China, at Saint Helena, and afloat on the sea. The report also notes the up-to-date status of the company's assets and debts, although the report notes that there were extensive arrears in dividend payments, particularly to annuitants and bondholders. In many cases, these payments were years or even decades in arrears. The report includes correspondence regarding the company's outstanding payments, including requests to the board of treasury from the directorate of the East India Company.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book centers on the 1773 Regulator Act passed by the British parliament with the goal of establishing new regulations to better manage affairs of the British East India Company. At the time, the company was facing scrutiny for alleged widespread misconduct and corruption in its governance of India, prompting parliamentary action. The Act sets up a Governor General and Council to oversee the company's activities, as well as a Board of Trade to manage commercial affairs, bringing all under the control of the British government.
