Croatia's Ministry of Finance, working with the Croatian Financial Services Supervisory Agency, published draft proposals for a Strategic Framework for the Development of the Capital Market in Croatia for 2025–2030 and an associated Action Plan for 2025–2026, and made both documents available on the e-Savjetovanje portal. The package is intended to set the direction for capital market development through to end-2030, with the action plan covering the initial two-year implementation period. The Strategic Framework defines five strategic directions: regional integration and positioning Croatia as a financial centre, digitalisation, improved corporate governance, increased market liquidity, and development of new investment products and financing options. It also includes a horizontal measure to optimise the legislative framework. The documents draw on a project launched in mid-2023 with technical support from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and input from a working group spanning public authorities and market institutions. After completion of the 2025–2026 Action Plan, the Ministry of Finance plans to prepare a further Action Plan covering 2027–2030.
