Summary/Abstract: This article shows the process of nationalization of the Thonet Mundus company majority-owned by the Swiss citizens by using archival material. It gives insight mostly into the legal side of the transfer of the Swiss property into state hands, as well as the compensation of the Swiss citizens caused by the measures taken by the Yugoslavian authorities. In the post-war period new authorities sought to obtain ownership of economic operators in order to subsist. The beginning of depropriation of the owners of large capital was the engine that ensured the survival of the system itself.
