By financial capital one can understand the institutions, which obtain a net yield, by lending money at interest or transact comparable credit and cash transactions on the financial markets (stock broking, insurance transaction, old age pension insurances). Other forms of capital would be for instance industrial capital and commercial capital.

One can understand by it in addition, the financial resources, the Schuldforderungen to others. In the following the financial capital is institutionally represented:

The term financial capital designates the whole of the banks, shareholders or large finance companies (insurance, pension funds and other Kapitalsammelstellen), which affect the restaurant happening by their plant decisions on the capital market. The net yield of the financial capital does not depend simply on the economic growth of the "homeland", there the investment trusts their capital investment into particularly profitable enterprises, real estates etc. to invest can and above all also abroad. In the long run however only the net yields can be obtained on the financial markets, which can be obtained also in the producing economy. "Taking" of the financial markets off from the "material" basis is thus if necessary temporarily possible.

Ith Lenin. It describes not only above, but rather the structural growing together of the bank capital with the industriellen capital.
