Bank recapitalization is in Slovenia still predominantly considered solely in the meaning of an exceptional public financial aid and not as one of the most important ways of raising new equity. In accordance with a special role of bank capital and increasing capital requirements, bank recapitalization shall be also discussed as a supervisory measure.
Good corporate governance is essential for process of bank recapitalization. The latter has quite a few differences in comparison to ZGD-1, which are consequence of the specifics of the banking sector and findings from the latest global financial crisis. In the process of bank recapitalization there are a larger number of »external« and »internal« parties in a bank corporate governance. Internal parties are in an organisationally and hierarchically defined relationship. It shall be noted that the Bank of Slovenia can intervene in those relationships and decision on equity issuance as a supervisor of the banking sector with its supervisory measures. The latter ones also represent the main reason for bank recapitalizations in the Slovenian banking sector.

The second part discusses arrangements of bank equity issuance in accordance with ZGD-1 and specifics from ZBan-2. The third part includes normative analysis of competences and roles of the parties in the corporate governance in bank recapitalization in accordance with the applicable Slovenian legislation. It also contains the analysis of acts of association of the Slovenian banks. The fourth part presents findings of economic analysis of corporate governance in the process of a bank recapitalization with emphasis on banking supervison and involuntary equity issuance of a bank.
