Historique
The Company was founded as bankers and bill brokers in 1860 by G Brightwen (previously a manager of the London Discount Company), operating from 8 Finch Lane, London. Brightwen was joined in partnership by William Gillett in 1861, and T. H. Loveless in 1864, the firm becoming styled Brightwen, Gillett and Company. Gillett left the firm in August 1867 to assist his brothers Alfred and George Gillett in their partnership of Gillett Bros and Company. Although taking business away from his previous firm, now restyled Brightwen and Company, William Gillett did not formally join his brothers in partnership. Brightwen and Company traded from 8 Finch Lane from 1860 until 1906, and at 34 Nicholas Lane, London, from 1907-39. In 1939 it merged with Cater and Company, discount bankers of 5 Bishopsgate London.
