STRUCTURAL MODEL OF THE BUSINESS ORGANISATION FORMS IN THE REPUBLIC OF CROATIA

According to positive legal regulations, the Republic of Croatia does not allow any unregistered business activities. However, when it comes to legal grounds referring to types of business entities, it becomes clear that there is a broad regulatory frame for business activities in Croatia. That variety, however, becomes an issue when defining business forms and business models which can further complicate any result of scientific research as well as the official statistics. For example, the term company has become frequently used in journalism and research, when it has not been made clear neither what the business model is nor has it been specified what business activities the term itself covers. Furthermore, various research results often use the terms micro, small, medium and large business entities, which is, according to the positive legal regulations, accurate only for some business entities, i.e. only for some types of business entities in the Republic of Croatia. Finally, research results often display the total sum of business activities in Croatia, without considering non-profit organisations or public and non-business organisations. In order to solve this confusion, a clear system of terms for the forms of business organisation following ontological principles should be determined. The structural model of the business organisation forms in the Republic of Croatia is the result of that research.
