De ce fait, les marchands commencent à s’organiser afin de mener des projets de plus grande envergure, chacun ayant des bénéfices à tirer des biens produits dans les différentes régions de l’Europe. Cependant cette ouverture des échanges pose de nombreux problèmes pratiques : les expéditions sont très couteuses et doivent être les plus grandes possibles afin d’être rentables et cela demande des fonds considérables qu’un marchand seul, ne peut pas fournir. De plus la diversité des monnaies au sein de l’espace européen à l’époque demande une organisation et rend la présence des changeurs indispensable au bon développement...
