Abstract
This paper covers the organization, activity and liquidation of the Jastrebarsko Stock Savings Bank in Jastrebarsko in the period from 1894, when it was established, to 1948 when its liquidation was completed. The article is founded primarily on the study of the archival material found in the Croatian State Archives. The archival funds used in this paper are: HR-HDA-152. Sava Financial Directorate in Zagreb – Zagreb (1929-1939), HR-HDA-215. Ministry of the State Treasury of the Independent State of Croatia - Zagreb (1941-1945), HR-HDA-313. State Administration of People's Goods of the People's Republic of Croatia – Zagreb (1945-1954), HR-HDA-532. Croatian Agricultural Bank d.d. Zagreb (1901-1949), HR-HDA-620. National Bank of Yugoslavia. Central Station in Zagreb. Service of Liquidation of Old Affairs – Zagreb (1945-1972) and HR-HDA-1076. Office for Nationalized Property. Ministry of State Treasury. Department of Finance, State Property and Debts – Zagreb (1941-1945). Besides the analysis of archival funds, the paper covers the acts, by-laws and other relevant acts that were published in official newsletters, and also the official schematisms, statistics and relevant literature. The foreclosure of the Jastrebarsko Stock Savings Bank began with the passing of the Agriculturists Protection Act dated 19th of April 1932, which imposed a moratorium on the farmers’ debts. Right after the passing of the aforementioned act, the business of the Jastrebarsko Stock Savings Bank decreased significantly and it soon began doing business with a loss. Given the fact that the Institute performed a silent liquidation in the years that followed, at the 49th regular assembly of the stockholders on the 19th of July 1944, it was decided to liquidate the company, but the liquidation could not be implemented. In view of the abolition of private owned financial institutes in Socialist Yugoslavia, on January 8th of 1947, a repeated liquidation of the institute was determined, which was completed on 29th of June 1948.
