It reviews EU financing mechanisms and ways to leverage Croatia’s financial sector, including public-private partnerships, then presents pathways to green private-sector activities across energy efficiency, industrial decarbonization, skills, and tourism competitiveness. The note also considers the role of state-owned enterprises and provides references for further follow-up.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nCROATIA  \nBackground Note on Private Sector Challenges and Opportunities in the Context of Croatia’s Climate Agenda  \nOctober 2025  \n© 2025 The World Bank Group  \n1818 H Street NW, Washington, DC 20433  \nTelephone: 202-473-1000; [Internet: ](Internet: www.worldbank.org)[www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nThis work is a product of the staff of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Development Association (IDA), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), collectively known as The World Bank Group, with external contributors.  \nThe World Bank Group does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability , or completeness of the content included in this work, or the conclusions or judgments described herein, and accepts no responsibility or liability for any omissions or errors (including, without limitation, typographical errors and technical errors) in the content whatsoever or for reliance thereon.
