I suspect its hard to quantify global reserves before WWI, or really WWII. It probably makes more sense to focus on Europe. Semantically, an "unprecedented position as a global creditor" in no ways means domination of global finance. | |

It's commonly stated Stated where, by whom? Please cite references when asking about such assertions. Secondly, pre-WW1, most countries did not maintain significant foreign exchange reserves - that is a poor indicator of financial strength in that era.
