Croatia’ s Accession to the EU- is the shore already in sight?
The economic motivation for integration of Croatia with the EU has been mentioned in numerous studies and repeated many times. The benefits go much beyond those of merchandise trade and shallow integration: • small and open economy would prosper more being part of such a regional market in many aspects, such as the creating single economic space that offers unlimited and non-tariff access to a greater market resulting in important trade creation effects ; • greater use of economic of scale, integrated supply and production chains and higher FDI, macroeconomic and monetary stability etc. Human capital development too • It increases efficiency of both industry and also backbone services. It enhances intraregional trade much more than pure trade arrangements etc. As World Bank study (2008) says, small and open economy benefits more from regional integrations than larger ones. The whole Western Balkans consists of states relatively small in size too (altogether 25 million inhb). Dynamic gains in trade, as for most SEE, since signing SAA (2001)- the benefits stem from alignment of legal and regulatory framework with the EU acquis, accompanied with dynamics in reform in areas related to the state aid, competition policy, introduction of EU standards and technical regulations. Most importantly, significant benefits from the increased competition as a result of tariff dismantling. Progressive import liberalization on a preferential basis, which considerably increases the competition of SEE countries, including Croatia.
