Abstract: The first half of the 20th century was marked by major changes in the Croatian political image, and this had, of course, reflections in the economic field. In the period of fifty years several political systems and the states has changed, and each of them had a specific approach to economy. From capitalist Austro-Hungarian Empire, through the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the NDH, to Socialist Yugoslavia. Political system of each of these countries had a crucial impact on the ownership structure of companies. All this caused significant changes in the ownership structure of economic entities in Osijek. In this paper I will try to show how these changes affected the ownership and operation of several prominent economic entities in Osijek in the first half of the 20th century. As in the reporting period the ownership structure of Osijek commercial facilities actually made a shift from the private, across the state or the social and again to private ownership, I'll try to point out the advantages and disadvantages that such a conversion had on the operations of experimental economic entities, in the hope that the experience of previous attempts could indicate the positive directions in the future and avoid the mistakes made in the past. The work will be mainly based on the source material of experimental economic entities stored in Osijek National Archives.
