Abstract

Introduction. The article highlights the relevance of the topic and the views of contemporary researchers who justify the legal basis for the functioning of the Noble Bank and the impact of the First World War on the landowners&#39 economy and the revolutionary events of 1917. Objective. The study aims to analyze the content of archival sources in order to study the legal framework for conducting auctions in the activities of the Noble Bank and to identify the practical features of granting benefits to defaulting borrowers based on petitions during wartime; to characterize the system of establishing a "trading presence" in the activities of the Noble Bank, which was not only used to prepare the estates of defaulting borrowers for sale, but also to remove them from the auction process. Methods. The study uses legal research methods, including an analysis of the legal framework governing the bidding process in the activities of the Noble Bank, as well as a comparative legal analysis of the provision of benefits to defaulting borrowers during peacetime and during the First World War. Results. It has been established that the Tambov branch of the Noble Bank had to deal with a large number of applications from defaulting borrowers for the provision of benefits since the beginning of the First World War. A study of the "trade presence" revealed that there were only a few cases of estates being sold at auction, despite the high-quality legal support for this procedure. Since the beginning of the revolutionary events in 1917 and the destruction of some estates, the bank&#39s board has additionally provided these borrowers with payment installments. Conclusions. The practical aspects of the legal support for the bidding process in the bank&#39s activities during the First World War indicated the preferential nature of lending to estates. As a result, the mortgage loan was in demand among the hereditary nobility of the Russian Empire until the bank&#39s liquidation in 1918.
