Britain and its allies' ultimate success in World War I is largely attributed to the economic strength of the Triple Entente and the wider access to capital markets, particularly that based in London.The project involves study of more than 1,300 volumes lodged at the Bank of England revealing the identities of those who purchased the securities that allowed Britain the financial resources to prosecute the war. Who were these people and why did they buy the bonds is one of the key questions I hope to answer.

英国及其盟国在一战中的最终胜利，在很大程度上要归功于三国协约国的经济实力，以及更广泛的资本市场准入，尤其是总部位于伦敦的资本市场。该项目涉及对存放在英格兰银行（Bank of England）的1,300多卷资料进行研究，以揭示那些购买了证券的人的身份，这些证券让英国获得了进行战争的财政资源。这些人是谁，他们为什么购买债券是我希望回答的关键问题之一。
