Benjamin Buck Greene (1808 – 3 April 1902) emerged from an inheritor of slave fortune from the Atlantic slave trade and sugar plantation manager in the Caribbean, to later one of London's leading colonial merchants and shipowners. This led him to a directorship of the Bank of England (1850–1900), deputy governor (1871–3), Governor of the Bank of England (1873–5).
