CONCILIATION CENTRE
The Conciliation Centre of the Croatian Chamber of Economy is an institution dedicated to organising and carrying out conciliation proceedings in business disputes. Before it was established in July 2002, conciliation had been carried out by the Permanent Arbitration Court. The proceedings handled by the Centre allow the settlement of business disputes in a way that is satisfactory to all parties and that may create conditions for further business co-operation. Through the Arbitration Court and the Conciliation Centre, the Croatian Chamber of Economy provides to entrepreneurs an integrated framework that allows fast and adequate settlement of business disputes outside a court of justice. This year, a regional center in Vara˛din has been established, with regional centres in Pula, Split and Osijek currently being established. By the end of the year, the establishment of a conciliation centre in Rijeka is also on the agenda.
