The company pays dividends to its stockholders which it earns in carrying on this oil trade. This money the stockholders can and do use as they think fit, but the company is in no way responsible for the disposition that the stockholders make of their dividends. The Standard Oil Company does not own or control "a chain of banks," nor has it any interest directly or indirectly in any bank. Its relations are confined to the functions of ordinary banking, such as other depositors have. It buys and sells its own exchange; and these dealings, extending over many years, have made its bills of exchange acceptable all over the world.

白话

洛克菲勒说明:公司把做石油生意赚的钱作为股息分给股东,股东怎么花是股东的事,公司管不着。标准石油不拥有也不控制“连锁银行”,跟银行没有直接或间接的利益关系,只像普通储户一样跟银行打交道。公司买卖自己的汇票,多年交易让它的汇票在全世界都被接受。核心是划清界限:公司只对经营负责,不对股东个人资金去向负责;不搞金融控制,靠长期信誉让票据通行。这提醒我们:信誉是长期交易积累出来的,别把公司信用和股东个人行为混为一谈。
