Sažetak
The purpose of this research is to present whether and in what way will be possible to upgrade the existing reporting and benchmarking system of Croatian camping business in accordance to the provisions of Directive 95/2014/EU according to the market trends, global camping business challenges and framework of the integrated reporting system. The emphasis is on the consideration of all the relevant influential factors in direction to achieving the goals set by Croatian Tourism Development Strategy in accordance to the sustainable development principles. It is very important part of long term sustainability in camping business and the path for winning the game on the global tourism market. This research is based on reviewing the achieved level of camping business development with the special emphasis on the quality of information, for short- and long- term decision making. During the analysis of relevant literature sources, general conclusion that academic authors put relatively little attention on the economic aspect of camping business is imposed (e.g. Brooker & Joppe, 2014, p. 1). It should be noted that there is also a lack of quality data- bases and statistical approach, as camping business is presented only as a part of the total accommodation capacity (Eurostat, 2017). This part of tourism services does not have appropriate segment reporting standards, such as those developed on the global level for the hospitality industry (USALI, 2014), spa services (USFRS, 2005), restaurants (USAR, 2012), clubs (USFRC, 2012), marinas (USAMB, 1996), etc. In order to provide appropriate information, as a basis for external comparison of internally accomplished results, campsites mainly use different platforms for segment reporting, mostly those based on the provisions of the global reporting standards IFRS 8 (IFRS, 2009). Campsites are not yet included in the global benchmarking process (Hood, 2016). All that makes significant difficulties in assessing the competitiveness based on the economic indicators, as well as in establishing the globally accepted model of benchmarking, in which non-financial indicators, as the precondition for assessing the sustainable competitiveness on the different hierarchical levels should inevitably be included.
