The structure and the behaviour of the capital of cooperative banks
59-77Views:110Today cooperatives are unable to function according to traditional cooperative principles, as the changes in the economy have altered the basis for the operation of cooperatives as well. There are a number of regulations affecting the members of cooperatives and investors ranging from the foundation to the ditribution of dividend, from the volatility of capital to investing into a cooperative, which are carried out in comparison with other forms of investment in the market. By now in Europe debates about cooperatives have become more heated; the documents of the European Union especially the ones concerning social economy also testify to this. It is for this reason that the study has chosen the examination of cooperative banks. The authors present the structure of cooperative banks, the changes in the structure, as well as the behaviour and characteristics of cooperative capital.
