About

Belgrade Cooperative (Serbian: Београдска задруга, romanized: Beogradska zadruga) was a Serbian cooperative bank founded in 1882 to promote savings and support small enterprises, craftspeople and the poor of Belgrade. Member-shareholders have been paying membership in amount of one Serbian Dinar per week. That was the way for cooperative to become a public savings bank. Luka Ćelović was the first president of cooperative, also a first Serbian insurance group. The cooperative was notable for the building it built on Karađorđeva Street in Belgrade in 1907 and used as its headquarters until the cooperative was closed in 1944. The Palace of the Belgrade Cooperative was designated as a cultural monument since 1966 and was declared a cultural asset of great importance by the Serbian government in 1979.
