The master's thesis focuses on the criminal offense of abuse of position or trust in economic activity and is categorized as a crime against the economy. The criminal offense of abuse of position or trust in business activity within the meaning of the Slovenian Criminal Code is the most common criminal offense against the economy. This criminal offense is known as a delictum proprium and is legally defined with a blanket disposition. Possible offenders are persons who conduct any of the potential executing methods, which are abuse of position, abuse of given trust, cross given rights or neglect duties, while pursuing an economic activity. The intention of this thesis is also to highlight the legislative changes of this offense through time. In this thesis I will also present and analyse existing case-law in Slovenia.
