The system of Traveler. 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 security of a letter of credit and at the same time the convenience of local. cutrency. The Company registernd the cheques under the tradin name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES the word 'Travellers' being spelled with one "1" The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other harking institutions adopted the system.”
