Historiography, which is the ultimate process in formulating or designing or designing available resources to be made into a complete unity with the context to be studied or discussed. The result of this research is that the Mojokerto area can be considered as an area to be reckoned with. For the colonial era itself, Mojokerto can be said to be a scattered industrial area. Like the sugar factory and the factory and coffee fields. These commodities also served the coffers of wealth for the colonialists if they were used as commodities for international trade. The presence of a bank in Mojokerto itself is expected to be able to stabilize, maintain, and reverse the circulation of money circulating in the area. Even though the turmoil fluctuated when this bankwas established, the bank was expected to be able to help the colonial party to increase the amount of other income in terms of taxes, forced cultivation, or factories that were established in the Dutch East Indies region.
