New edition of EIZ Working Papers

The latest edition of EIZ Working Papers brings the paper The Impact Assessment of the EU Pre-Accession Funds on Agriculture and Food Companies: The Croatian Case by Marin Kukoč, Bruno Škrinjarić and Josip Juračak.

This paper evaluates the effect of pre-accession EU grants on beneficiaries in the agri-food sector using a quasi-experimental approach on the case of Croatia. The grants were shown to have a positive effect on firm survival, as well as positive effects on obtaining bank loans and increasing turnover, value added, employment, and total factor productivity.
