 The Inside Story of Mr. Rank
Sir David Yule, a Calcutta jute magnate, left a fortune variously estimated between £20,000,000 and £7,000,000 - perhaps the right figure is about £15,000,000.
In spite of havy death duties, and the fact that much of Sir David's estate was tied up in trusts, Lady Yule was left with a not inconsiderable bank balance; and her financial adviser was Lord Catto, later chairman of the Bank of England.
Whatever Lady Yule's attitude, Rank was automatically businesslike in his approach, and ready to apply the ordinary principles of factory management which he had learnt in flour-milling.
