The Exchange Bank of India & Africa was established in Bombay in 1942. It expanded rapidly and at its peak had branches in India at Ahmedabad, Amraoti, Amritsar, Bhavnagar, Bangalore, Calcutta, Cochin, Delhi, Karachi, Khamagaon, Kolhapur, Madras, Madura, Nagpur, Rajkot, Surendranagar, Tinnevelly, and Tuticorin. It also had overseas branches at Aden, Colombo, Dar-es-Salam, Jaffna, Jinga, Kampala, London, Mombasa, and Nairobi.〔''Indian Affairs'', (1948), Vol. 1, pp.526 & 1174.〕 The bank opened three East African branches in 1947, with the branch in Tanzania opening in late 1948. A crisis developed in the bank from about mid-February 1949, resulting in a heavy run on the bank. The bank suspended payments in May and was liquidated in June 1949. The Managing Director of the bank at the time, Jaswantrai Manilal Akhaney, was charged with and found guilty of criminal breach of trust for disposing of certain securities that a client had deposited with the bank.〔Gaur (2011), p.136.〕 ==Citations and references== ;Citations ;References *American Indian Fund (1948) ''Indian affairs''.
