American Express Travelers Cheques

Definition of TRAVELLERS' CHEQUES...........

"The system of Travellers' Cheques was originated in 1901 by the American Express Company with the object of creating a form of travel currency which would give the holder the security of a latter of credit and at the same time the convenience of local currency. The Company registered the cheques under the trade name of AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVELERS' CHEQUES * the word Travellers' being spelled with one"""The advantage of the Cheques was so apparent that other banking institutions adopted the system."
