<article>In 2015, according to the analysis of Insajder.net, parties were financed primarily from public sources and from individual donations of physical persons. Very few legal entities, i.e. companies and entrepreneurs, were mentioned in the reports as having helped the work of the parties in 2015.The Anti-Corruption Agency is preparing the final report about the financing of parties in 2015. It has yet to be seen how accurate these reports are.<blockquote>"While controlling the reports for 2014, the Agency found that some party donors were users of welfare benefits, companies running losses, firms which were founded right before the donation and liquidated immediately after, and that parties were helped even by pre-school institutions and pensioners' associations."</blockquote>According to professor Zoran Stojiljkovic, a member of the Board of the Anti-Corruption Agency, the majority of these suspicious transactions are difficult to prove and most often remain unsanctioned.<h2>SPS has the biggest donors</h2>The biggest payment last year, 1.2 million dinars, was made by the company One Time d.o.o., which was founded in mid-2014 according to the Agency for Commercial Registers (APR) and had profit of 12,000 dinars in 2015. There are also Probeton, Probanat, Leon Sistem and Global Solutions, which donated several hundred thousand dinars to the SPS.Entrepreneur Vladimir Jovicic, who opened his company PR Portir in mid-November 2015, supported the work of the Serbian Radical Party with three million dinars in 2015.<blockquote>"Of the parties which entered the Parliament, the Socialists' Movement also mentioned donations from legal entities in their report. They received around 1.7 million dinars from a total of 16 companies, including one bakery and one play-room for children."</blockquote>Only three companies made donations of 100,000 dinars or more - Metalfer Steel Mill (100,000 dinars), ARMA Podvodka d.o.o. (314,273), OD FH Leontije Firicaski Leontije i Ostali (157,600).Among the rare parties whose work was helped by companies is the Social Democratic Party (SDS) of Boris Tadic. It received a total of 333,950 dinars from a baker's shop, an agency for advertizing services and an agency for administration services.<h2>Donations from sympathizers</h2>Judging by the financial reports, the majority of parties did not receive donations from businesses, but only from physical persons.Among the 174 donors of the SPS, 119 made payments of more than 200,000 dinars. Still, there were no high party officials among the donors.How much the parties got from the budget• SNS 440,837,059.80 • DS 99,993,629.61 • SPS 95,060,763.38 • SRS 3,543,929.60 • SDS 37,676,469.10 • LDP 1,576,839.62 • PUPS 49,083,069.30 • SDPS 30,754,070.64 • New Party 8,508,741.00 • Unified Serbia 28,675,377.90 • Socialists' Movement 1,646,067.23 • Dveri 27,904.30 * amounts are in dinars.Some of the biggest donors of the Socialists were Ivan Djokovic, who gave 770,000 to the SPS, Aleksandra Djankovic with 710,000 and Darko Jevtic with 700,000.The following persons each donated 600,000 dinars to the SPS: Ljubisa Dasic, Gojko Micunovic, Tatjana Polusevski, Slobodan Simonovic and Marko Topo, while Spasoje Zvijer donated 640,000 dinars.Veselin Bojic, Miroslav Kopanja, Zivan Obrenovic, Goran Radic, Slavko Surbatovic and Gojko Trkulja helped the SPS with 500,000 dinars each, while Nikola Dangubic and Borislav Ratic donated 550,000 dinars.In the Democratic Party (DS), some of the biggest donations were from the party members.The biggest donation, 304,000 dinars, was from Edip Serifov, an official of the party and head of the Zvezdara municipality.
