The problem of legal status of financial institutions on financial services market. The main purpose of this paper is to clarify some issues concerning the operation of financial institutions.

Article’s main body. Professional services in the markets of financial services are provided by financial institutions which include banks, credit unions, pawnshops , leasing companies, trust companies, insurance companies, founded retirement insurance institutions, investment funds and companies and other legal entities whose sole kind of business is to provide financial services. Such definition indicates a very broad treatment of the term “institution” in the realm of financial activity. Such a treatment ignores the fact that “institution” is a legal corporate form suitable only for non-commercial legal entities. Conclusions and prospects for the development. The author reaches the following conclusions: (a) a financial institution should be established only in the legal form which is determined by a special law; (b) the entity becomes a financial institution after the introduction of the record in the State Register of financial institutions, as evidenced by the issuing of the certificate of registration; (c) financial institutions fall within four different realms of legislation at the same time: first realm is Civil Code of Ukraine; second is Commercial Code of Ukraine; the third is special legislation regulating commercial entities; the fourth is legislation regulating financial services, which contains a lot of statutes; (d) there are substantive divergences between different species of financial institutions, which could be established only in the forms provided for by legislation and which could be either commercial or non-profitable organizations, either public or private legal persons.
