American Express Travelers Cheques
Dednition of TRAVELLERS' OREQUES—
“The system of Travellers' Cheques was originated in 1991 by the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the holder the surity of a letter of credit and at the-same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade Base of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS, CREQUES !-- the word 'Travellers' being spelled with one "I". Tos advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system.”
