Summary/Abstract: The author in the paper examines the activities of the Privileged Land Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina during World War I. The main part of this paper is focused on the analysis of changes which were brought upon the most significant financial institution in the country by the outbreak of the largest conflict in human history. Based on archival documents and literature, it can be concluded that the course of the war provided for opportunities for further development, but also caused far reaching damage to operations of the bank. Ultimately, its outcome has marked a turning point in the activities of this monetary institution and the beginning of a new era in its development.
