The Archive of the Czech National Bank is often perceived by the research community as an institution managing sources on the economic history of the Czech lands and Central Europe, especially since the second half of the 19th century. Although the archival material deposited there belongs for the most part to the institutional records of Czechoslovak monetary institutions, the archival documents stored there offer not only a glimpse into the functioning of the monetary institutions themselves, but also into the inner workings of their clients’ businesses. However, the lives of individuals who were connected with the banks (customers) or worked in them (bank clerks) are not left out. It is in these two spheres that archival documents can be encountered (personnel files and vital records, photographs, credit files, information department files, etc.). These documents can also be used to study the history of women and gender. An analysis of the research interest in the Archive of the Czech National Bank in the last ten years and its consequent comparison with foreign banking archives demonstrates the still small and gradually emerging interest in the subject. The archival materials are only just being discovered by the research community and are being progressively heuristically processed in contributions tending primarily to the history of women rather than gender.
