Abstract

Pandemija COVID-19 jedan je od najvećih izazova s kojima su se društva i gospodarstva ikad suočila. Globalna kriza izazvana pandemijom virusa COVID-19 je u vrlo kratkom vremenu uzrokovala snažan udar i na domaće gospodarstvo, uzrokujući pad aktivnosti gospodarskog sustava u cjelini. Stoga je predmet ovog diplomskog rada analiza utjecaja pandemije COVID-19 na gospodarstvo Republike Hrvatske. Analiza kretanja glavnih makroekonomskih varijabli, pokazuje da je pandemija imala izrazito negativan utjecaj na sve aspekte gospodarstva. Također, pandemija nije zaobišla ni najznačajniju gospodarsku granu Republike Hrvatske, turizam, koji je najviše pogođen spomenutom krizom. Kako bi se utjecalo na poboljšanje postojeće situacije, država je donijela niz ekonomskih mjera za ublažavanje i uklanjanje negativnih ekonomskih posljedica. U ovom radu, objasnit će se na koji način te mjere funkcioniraju. Stručni doprinos ovog rada je analizirati makroekonomske projekcije kretanja ekonomskih varijabli Republike Hrvatske čime se dolazi do zaključka da će Republika Hrvatska u narednom razdoblju doživjeti ekonomski oporavak te daljnji rast gospodarskih aktivnosti. Ukoliko bi došlo do novog vala virusa, cilj je ponuditi moguće rješenje za obranu od recesije. Za potrebe izrade ovog rada ponajprije je korištena metoda analize. Kao osnovni izvor podataka, proučena je strana i domaća stručna i znanstvena literatura. U makroekonomskim projekcijama koristili su se podaci Ministarstva financija Republike Hrvatske te Državnog zavoda za statistiku.

Abstract (english)

The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the biggest challenges society and economy have ever faced. The global crisis caused by the pandemic of the COVID-19 virus caused a strong impact on the domestic economy in a very short time, causing a decline in the activity of the economic system as a whole. Therefore, the subject of this thesis is the analysis of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy of the Republic of Croatia.The analysis of the main macroeconomic variables shows that the pandemic had an extremely negative impact on all aspects of the economy. Also, the pandemic did not bypass the most important economic branch of the Republic of Croatia, tourism, which was the most affected by the crisis. In order to influence the improvement of the current situation, the state adopted a series of economic measures to mitigate and eliminate negative economic consequences. In this paper, it will be explained how these measures work. The professional contribution of this paper analyzes the macroeconomic projections of the movement of economic variables of the Republic of Croatia, which leads to the conclusion that the Republic of Croatia will experience economic recovery and further growth of economic activities in the coming period. If there is a new wave of the virus, the goal is to offer a possible solution to defend against the recession. For the purposes of creating this paper, the analysis method was primarily used. As a basic source of data, foreign and domestic professional and scientific literature was studied. Data from the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Croatia and the State Bureau of Statistics were used in the macroeconomic projections.
