The Minis- parliamentary election ter of Finance survived the motion of no confidence vote, which ended in a tie 40 (75 – 75 votes with one abstention). The vote of no confidence was the first and 35 key point for the survival of the Government, because if it had been passed, the 30 dissolution of the Parliament would have been the most likely option.

Technically HDZ may ensure the sufficient majority in the Parliament for ruling, but the majority will be very tight and fragile. Unsurprisingly, hence, the Croatia – sovereign curve Prime Minister left the door open for snap elections.

  • Agency Problems and Debt Financing
    AGENCY PROBLEMS AND DEBT FINANCING Marina Klačmer Čalopa1 Karolina Kokot2 Ivana Đunđek Kokotec3 DOI: https://doi.org/10.31410/EMAN.2019.325 Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to examine correlation between agency costs meas- ured by identified approximation of variables and debt financing as one of the corporate governance mechanisms for reducing these costs. In a modern corporation where ownership is separated from management, many benefits are viewed primarily through an increasing efficiency. The issue of the separation of ownership and management is related to potential conflict between principals (stakehold- ers) and agents (managers). Theoretically possible solution to the agency problem is defined through the agency theory. The most significant problem are agency costs. Agency costs do not have a directly quantifiable value, therefore the approximation of measures such as asset turnover ratio and operat- ing expense ratio (company’s operating expenses divided by its revenues) will be used in this research paper. According to the previous empirical studies, between asset turnover ratio and debt financing positive correlation was determined, while negative correlation was determent between operating ex- pense ratio and debt financing. This research was conducted on Croatian companies whose shares have been listed on the Zagreb Stock Exchange continuously from January 2009 to December 2017. In the analysis, from a total of 154 companies that shares have been listed on the Zagreb Stock Exchange, 31 most actively traded shares measured by the average monthly trading rank in the observed period were taken. Results obtained in this research indicate that debt financing is significant corporate governance mechanism for reducing agency costs where the direction obtained from the correlation is in line with the theoretical expectation.
