Rad obrađuje ustroj, poslovanje i likvidaciju Trgovačke banke d.d. Zagreb u vremenskom periodu od godine 1912., kada je zavod osnovan pod nazivom Bankovno komanditno društvo I. Kreutzer i drug u Zagrebu. Pretvorbu zavoda u dioničko društvo naziva Banka I. Kreutzer d.d. u Zagrebu godine 1920., ponovnu promjenu naziva tvrtke u Trgovačka banka d.d. godine 1938., pa sve do godine 1948., kada je završena njezina likvidacija. U vrijeme velike svjetske ekonomske krize glavni cilj i poslovno načelo rukovodstva banke bila je puna likvidnost zavoda, tako da je banka poslovala s financijskim dobitkom. U svibnju i lipnju 1941. zaplijenila je i oduzela Državna riznica Nezavisne Države Hrvatske (NDH) sve dionice Trgovačke banke koje su bile registrirane na Židove. Na taj način NDH je došla do većinskoga paketa dionica banke, pa je u zavodu postavila svojega nadzornog povjerenika. Nakon što je u studenom 1941. Tomo Kostopeč, poslovni prijatelj pravih dioničara banke židovske vjeroispovijesti za njihov račun otkupio od NDH dionice zavoda, razriješen je dužnosti postavljeni povjerenik pa je Trgovačka banka mogla nastaviti s radom. Nakon što je u ratu banka izgubila cijeli predratni dobitak, banka je 1946. ušla u postupak likvidacije, koji je završen 1948. godine.; The paper deals with the structure, business and liquidation of the Merchant Bank Ltd. in Zagreb during the period from 1912 when it was founded under the title The I. Kreutzer and Co. Bank Limited Partnership in Zagreb, the transformation of the establishment into a stock company entitled the I. Kreutzer Ltd. Bank in Zagreb in 1920, another change of the firm’s title in 1938 to The Merchant Bank Ltd. until 1948 when its liquidation was finished. At the time of the Great Depression the bank management’s main goal and business principle was the full solvency of the establishment; hence, up until the beginning of the Second World War the bank did business with profit. The following shareholders had equal shares: 1. Ignjat Kreutzer, 2. Slavko Betlheim (Belin), 3. Julije Fisher and 4. Franjo Huber. After Kreutzer died in 1938, the other three bought his shares. In the summer of 1940, Betlheim (Belin) Fischer and Huber, both as owners of all the shares and as Jews, predicted the upcoming events in the world, as well as the peril threatening to Jews in Europe and so they made an agreement to divide the majority of their shares formally and free of charge between their various gentile business friends, namely, 1. Dr. Dragan Dujmović from Zagreb, 2. Dr. Marijan Dujmović from Zagreb, 3. Jolan Forgač from Bačka Topola, 4. Dr. Vladimir Goljevšček from Zagreb, 5. Zvonimir Spalatin from Zagreb, 6. Marija Spalatin from Zagreb, 7. Dr. Pave Stanić from Kutina, 8. Stjepan Vinicky from Zagreb, 9. Dragan Vražić from Kutina and 10. Tomo Kostopeč from Dubrovnik. The total of 25 700 shares had been divided. The latter had been registered to the aforementioned names on 6 November 1940, while the rest was distributed among the same shareholders during the registration and partly also among their Jewish cousins.
