Description
The West India Sugar Finance Corporation was set up in 1913 to finance, develop and supervise Cuban sugar companies. Amongst others it financed the Palma Sugar Company and took control of it when it was unable to bear its debt burden in 1918. In 1924 it was dissolved and its preferred stock was exchanged for preferred stock of the Cuban Domincan Sugar Company which effectively succeeded it. It belonged to the sphere of influence of the National Sugar Refining Company.
