Croatian market:
We expect the new HDZ-Most coalition government to be somewhat more stable under the leadership of Andrej Plenkovic. Croatia significantly narrowed its fiscal deficit in 2015-16 and will exit the EU’s excessive deficit procedure this year. The record performance of the tourism sector, domestic demand and the country’s improved absorption of EU funds drove real GDP growth of 2.9% in 2016. We expect the external goods sector to improve its competitiveness and real GDP growth of 2.5% in 2017-21. (Source: The Economist Intelligence Unit 2017)
