description Social capital, a social phenomenon which has become a popular research topic recently is increasingly being linked to entrepreneurial behaviour. The main indicators by which we have measured social capital in our study are trust in people and social institutions and membership into entrepreneurial organisations. Analysing the results, we have noticed that Montenegrin entrepreneurs generally display lower trust towards people as well as towards state institutions. Their trust is much lower than is the case with the individuals employed at private businesses which mostly have a character of family business. Also, membership into entrepreneurial organisations has proved to be a resource which is utilised by only a small number of entrepreneurs.
