By doing the comparative analysis it was concluded that Austria has better-developed deposit institutions together with non-bank deposit institutions. In both countries commercial banks are very dominant, however in Austria, there is also a wider range of non-bank deposit institution and their performance is on a higher level unlike non-bank deposit institutions in the Republic of Croatia. These institutions in both countries in recent years have lower performance because universal banks started providing same financial services as non-bank deposit institutions.
