Abstract

Cilj ovog rada je istražiti kaznena djela popisana Zakonom o trgovačkim društvima (ZTD) uključujući njihovu regulaciju, vezanu sudsku praksu i njihov utjecaj na poslovnu zajednicu. Kaznena djela obuhvaćaju nepravilnosti davanja netočnih podataka, netočnog prikazivanja imovinskog stanja, povrede dužnosti u slučaju gubitka ili nesolventnosti te povrede dužnosti davanja izvješća. Glavna svrha je očuvanje zakonitosti poslovanja trgovačkih društava, zaštita vjerovnika i dioničara te jačanje povjerenja u tržišno gospodarstvo. Nadalje kaznena djela iz ZTD-a usko su povezana s gospodarskim kaznenim pravom i često se preklapaju s odredbama Kaznenog zakona, koji djeluje kao lex generalis. Sudska praksa ukazuje na određene izazove, uključujući složenost dokazivanja i relativno blage sankcije. Unatoč tome, sankcioniranje ovih djela ima preventivnu funkciju. Zaključno, rad ističe potrebu za kontinuiranim unapređenjem zakonodavnog okvira kako bi se osigurala učinkovitija borba protiv gospodarskog kriminaliteta te očuvala održivost gospodarskog sustava.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this thesis is to examine the criminal offenses prescribed by the Companies Act (ZTD), including their regulation, related case law, and their impact on the business community. These offenses include irregularities such as providing false information, misrepresentation of assets, breach of duty in cases of insolvency or loss, and failure to submit mandatory reports. The primary purpose of these provisions is to ensure the legality of corporate operations, protect creditors and shareholders, and strengthen trust in the market economy. Furthermore, criminal offenses under the ZTD are closely linked to economic criminal law and often overlap with provisions of the Criminal Code, which serves as a lex generalis. Case law highlights certain challenges, including the complexity of evidence collection and relatively lenient penalties. Nevertheless, penalizing these acts has a preventive function. In conclusion, this thesis emphasizes the need for continuous improvement of the legislative framework to ensure a more effective fight against economic crime and to maintain the sustainability of the economic system.
