The recent financial crisis has not only revealed the numerous failures in the supervision and regulation of the banking sector but has also uncovered the systemic risks inherent in that part of the financial system partially or completely beyond the reach of regulations, which, due to its size and the links among financial institutions, significantly contributed to the speed of the diffusion and the costs of the crisis. 
Recentna financijska kriza uputila je na brojne propuste u nadzoru i regulativi bankarskog sektora, ali je razotkrila i sistemske rizike u dijelu financijskog sustava koji je bio djelomično ili potpuno izvan dosega regulative, a koji je zbog svoje veličine i međusobnih veza među financijskim institucijama znatno pridonio brzini širenja i visini troškova krizne epizode.
Though this was particularly evident in countries with developed financial systems, regulatory arbitrage activities that heightened systemic risks within the financial system were seen in Croatia as well. 
To je posebice bilo izraženo u zemljama s razvijenim financijskim sustavima, premda su i u Hrvatskoj zabilježene aktivnosti koje spadaju u kategoriju regulatorne arbitraže i koje su rezultirale povećanim sistemskim rizicima unutar financijskog sustava.
Therefore, it has been recognised on both the international and national levels that, following the establishment of the macroprudential framework for banks, it is also necessary to start building an institutional and regulatory framework for the macroprudential supervision of non-bank financial institutions. 
Stoga je i na međunarodnoj i na nacionalnoj razini prepoznata potreba da se, nakon uspostave makroprudencijalnog okvira za banke, počne izgrađivati institucionalni i regulatorni okvir za makroprudencijalni nadzor nebankovnih financijskih institucija.

to the macroprudential regulation of shadow banks requires an understanding of the basic features of their operations and, based on available though still relatively scarce data, an assessment of the size of this financial system segment and its systemic importance. 
kroprudencijalne regulacije bankarstva u sjeni nužno je razumjeti osnovna obilježja takve vrste poslovanja te na temelju dostupnih, ali još relativno oskudnih podataka pokušati procijeniti veličinu toga segmenta financijskog sustava i ocijeniti njegovu sistemsku važnost.
In addition, to assess the role of shadow banks in Croatia, a preliminary analysis was made of the financial system and business practices that may be characterised as the operations of shadow banks, or activities associated with the circumvention of regulations and transfer of operations from one segment of the financial system to another, maturity mismatches that may result in crisis spillover from one segment of the financial system to the next in case of a stress event, and banks' exposures to non-bank financial institutions. 
Usto, kako bi se ocijenila važnost banaka u sjeni u Hrvatskoj, provedena je preliminarna analiza financijskog sustava i poslovnih praksi koje se mogu okarakterizirati kao djelovanje banaka u sjeni, odnosno koje su povezane s izbjegavanjem regulative i premještanjem poslovanja iz jednog segmenta financijskog sustava u drugi, ročnim neusklađenostima koje bi mogle rezultirati prelijevanjem krize iz jednog segmenta financijskog sustava u drugi u slučaju nastupanja nekoga stresnog događaja te izloženostima banaka prema nebankovnim financijskim institucijama.
Particular attention was paid to exposures of non-bank financial institutions to the government sector and the reliance of such institutions on foreign financing sources. 
Poseban naglasak stavljen je na izloženost nebankovnih financijskih institucija prema sektoru države te njihovo oslanjanje na inozemne izvore financiranja.
An analysis was carried out on the basis of financial accounts, money market data, and an examination of Croatian experience with regulatory arbitrage on the part of financial institutions. 
Analiza je provedena na temelju financijskih računa, podataka s novčanog tržišta te uzimanja u obzir hrvatskih iskustava s procesom regulatorne arbitraže od strane financijskih institucija.

The third section discusses the role of shadow banking from the point of view of financial stability, the fourth section presents shadow banking in Croatia and the last section summarises the main conclusions on the importance of macroprudential regulation of all segments of the financial system and potential systemic risks associated with shadow banking in Croatia. 
U trećem dijelu istaknuto je zbog čega je bankarstvo u sjeni važno iz perspektive financijske stabilnosti, četvrti dio prikazuje bankarstvo u sjeni u Hrvatskoj, a u posljednjem dijelu okupljeni su glavni zaključci o važnosti makroprudencijalne regulacije svih segmenata financijskog sustava te o potencijalnim sistemskim rizicima povezanima s aktivnostima banaka u sjeni u Hrvatskoj.
The term shadow banking was coined by Paul Mc 
Pojam bankarstvo u sjeni u upotrebu je uveo visoki
Culley, a former chief economist at PIMCO, who used the term in his 2007 speech at the annual financial symposium in Jackson Hole to refer to non-bank financial institutions that are engaged in maturity transformation, i.e. the creation of long-term loans from shorter-term sources, and are not subject to regulations applicable to credit institutions (Kodres, 2013). 
dužnosnik PIMCO-a Paul McCulley 2007. godine, kada se u govoru na godišnjem financijskom skupu u Jackson Hole osvrnuo na nebankovne financijske institucije koje se bave ročnom transformacijom, odnosno kreiranjem dugoročnih plasmana iz izvora koji su kraćeg roka dospijeća, a izvan su dosega regulative koja se primjenjuje na kreditne institucije (Kodres, 2013.).
It was pointed out that, as a rule, such legally and financially complex entities were linked to banks that in this way transferred a part of their operations outside their balance sheets (The Economist, 2014). 
Pritom je istaknuto da su takvi pravno i financijski složeni subjekti u pravilu bili povezani s bankama, koje su na taj način prebacivale dio poslovanja izvan svojih bilanci (The Economist, 2014.).

In narrow terms, shadow banking focuses mostly on funding forms that are very similar to banking operations (The Economist, 2014). 
U užem smislu bankarstvo u sjeni fokusirano je primarno na oblike financiranja koji su vrlo slični bankarskom poslovanju (Economist, 2014.).
Jackson and Matilainen (2012) view shadow banking from the funding perspective, i.e. taking deposits or issuing deposit-like instruments, and the lending perspective, i.e. extending credit to the non-financial sector. 
Jackson i Matilainen (2012.) bankarstvo u sjeni promatraju iz perspektive financiranja primanjem depozita ili instrumenata sličnih depozitima te iz perspektive kreditiranja odobravanjem kredita nefinancijskom sektoru.

ske rizike koji mogu ugroziti financijsku stabilnost.
In particular, the approach that prevails in recent conceptual discussions of the problem of shadow banks is that regulations should be directed at activities (an activity-based approach) and not at individual types of non-bank financial institutions in view of their heterogeneity and diversity in business models (Financial Stability Board, 2013), as well as the fact that banks also may be engaged in this type of activity (Perotti, 2013). 
Naime, u recentnim konceptualnim raspravama o problemu banaka u sjeni prevladava stajalište da regulativu treba usmjeriti na aktivnosti (engl. activity based approach), a ne na pojedine vrste nebankovnih financijskih institucija s obzirom na njihovu heterogenost i različite koncepte poslovanja (Odbor za financijsku stabilnost, 2013.), kao i zbog činjenice da i banke mogu biti uključene u takvu vrstu aktivnosti (Perotti, 2013.).

The expansion of the membership to the G20 countries has also broadened the set of activities of the Financial Stability Board, which became responsible for the promotion of regulatory changes and policies aimed at maintaining financial stability. 
U tom kontekstu posebno treba voditi računa o mogućoj prekomjernoj regulaciji bankarskog poslovanja, što je jedan od prigovora koji se u raspravama upućuje na račun složenih izmjena regulative u sklopu Basela III.

jer potiče financiranje dugom i nastanak cjenovnih balona u uzlaznim fazama ciklusa (Bakk-Simon i drugi, 2012.).
In bank-centric systems the problems of banks may result in a lack of funding to the economy as there are no sufficiently developed alternative sources of finance, while a welldeveloped network of financial intermediaries raises the possibility of regulatory arbitrage. 
Usto, iz perspektive središnje banke važan je utjecaj banaka u sjeni na monetarnu politiku jer njihovo djelovanje može oslabiti učinke monetarnih mjera i instrumenata (Deutsche Bundesbank, 2014.).
In particular, if a specific market segment is burdened by strict, and often costly, regulations, this increases the motivation of both entities with surplus funds and entities with deficient funds to simplify their operations or make them less costly, which encourages the development of different types of financial intermediation outside credit institutions or potentially unregulated activities within banks. 
S obzirom na to da banke u sjeni nisu izolirane od ostatka financijskog sustava, problemi se iz njih preko financijskih tržišta i drugih sudionika procesa financijskog posredovanja vrlo brzo mogu proširiti i na ostale financijske institucije, posebice na banke, a može doći i do prekograničnoga prelijevanja nestabilnosti.

In addition, from the central bank's perspective, shadow banking has a strong influence on monetary policy as it may weaken the effects of monetary measures and instruments (Deutsche Bundesbank, 2014).

b), može se uočiti da se važnost drugih nebankovnih financijskih posrednika ne povećava.
In addition, it should be said that the increase in the share of non-bank financial institutions in the period since the end of 2008 has been in part caused by regulatory arbitrage as macroprudential measures in the pre-crisis period were directed at banks, while the rest of the system was beyond the reach of regulations, as is best exemplified by changes in the assets of leasing companies. 
Usto, treba istaknuti i da je rast dijela nebankovnih financijskih institucija u razdoblju do kraja 2008. u određenoj mjeri bio posljedica regulatorne arbitraže s obzirom na to da su makroprudencijalne mjere u pretkriznom razdoblju bile usmjerene na banke, dok je ostatak sustava bio izvan njihova dosega, a najbolji primjer toga je kretanje imovine društava za lizing.
