Abstract

Family enterprises are specific because of their adjustment to long‑term existence and building relationships with the environment based on trust. The aim of the paper was to determine the nature of relations between family enterprises and banks, in particular about financing based on long‑term partnership. This specificity is translated into the choice of financing sources and the usage of banking services in a broad range. The aim of the research was to identify the character of cooperation between family enterprises and banks. More specifically, the number of banks acting in favor of enterprises, the reasons of their choice, length of cooperation, nature of the relationships, the bank offer used and the premises for changing it, attitude to cooperation in case of financial problems in enterprises and the banking sector. In the paper there are presented results of own quantitative and qualitative research carried out in 2014–2015 in Poland and in Austria. On their basis it can be concluded that family firm cooperate in long‑term with a relatively small group of banks. Polish family businesses choose bank because of the offer and pricing conditions, while the Austrian companies value mainly the good relations and proximity of the bank (regional). In Austria, firms use financial services more often, but at the same time they are more strongly affected by the restrictiveness of supervisory regulations in access to loan.
