Vklady

Vklady is a term used in Czech and Slovak languages, with the singular form vklad. It denotes an act of placing something into another object or, in a financial context, an amount that is deposited or contributed. The word is common across several domains, and its precise meaning depends on the context.

In finance and banking, vklad typically refers to money placed in a financial institution, such as a bank deposit. It can describe funds added to an account, a term deposit, or other monetary deposits. The related phrase vkladní lístek is used for a deposit slip, and vklad do účtu or vklad na účet is a way to express adding funds to an account.

In corporate and legal contexts, vklad often means a capital contribution by a partner or shareholder. It is used in phrases like vklad do základního kapitálu (contribution to the share or registered capital) or vklad společníka (contribution by a partner). Such contributions can be in the form of money or in-kind assets.

Beyond finance and law, vklad can also denote an insertion or addition in a document or text, indicating that something is being placed into a contract or manuscript. In Slovak as in Czech, the sense extends to the idea of bringing something into an established arrangement or record.

Overall, vklady is a versatile term tied to depositing, contributing, or inserting, with its exact sense determined by the relevant field. See also vkladní lístek and vklad do základního kapitálu for typical usages.
