Banco Occidental was a regional Colombian bank operating out of Cali, and by 1916 it was already fighting for survival. The Colombian banking reforms of the early twentieth century — and particularly the eventual nationalization push that would consolidate currency issuance under the Banco de la República after 1923 — effectively ended the commercial bank note period in Colombia. Notes like this one were products of a system with a known expiration date.
The American Bank Note Company contract is worth noting: ABNC handled a large share of Latin American private bank issues in this period, and their Colombian client list was extensive enough that plate-sharing and design recycling between issues of different banks is a documented phenomenon with this printer and this country.
