Abstract

Seaports and port systems have become the center of modern transport systems nowadays. For each country, including the Republic of Croatia, the development of ports and port areas is determined by the growth of economic activities with multiplier effects on the whole economy. The port authority is a public institution that is responsible for port management. The question is how to transform the seaport model management into a profitable entity and maximize its benefits for all stakeholders in a particular port area. Thereby, the financial capacity of the port authority is one of the major keys of the management factors that determine how the port authority can achieve its own goals and optimally perform their function. It follows that the profitable operation of the port authority is one of the fundamental elements for the optimal functioning of the whole port system.
