| Research Abstract |
In the period between the opening of the Yokohama sea port and the Japanese Civil Law coming into force, what kind of security rights were used to raise capital, what kind of contracts were there? To answer these questions, this research paper looks at the security rights used by silk producers (seishika) for the purpose of raising capital. As a result, there are the following three cases. (1) Contracts on investing capital by city banks to local banks, (2) contracts on investing capital by local banks to silk producers, and (3) contracts on investing capital by wholesalers to silk producers.In all these cases, thread and raw materials were used as a security in the form of either transferring property title to the creditor (joutotampo) or a pledge of lien (joutoshichi).
