The New Oriental Bank Corporation Limited was itself the product of a rebranding — the old Oriental Bank Corporation, one of Britain's most prominent colonial banks, collapsed in 1884 under the weight of bad loans and falling commodity prices in Ceylon and Mauritius. A group of creditors and shareholders reconstituted it almost immediately as the "New" Oriental, hoping the name change would restore confidence. It didn't. The reconstituted bank failed again in 1892, making this 1885 note an artifact of a brief and doomed second attempt.
Bradbury Wilkinson produced the plates in London, as they did for much of Britain's colonial banking paper of the period.
