One of the main tasks before SOA is the protection of the economic system. SOA acts to collect and analyze information relevant for business that could have an impact on the national security and economic interests of the Republic of Croatia.
According to the National Security Strategy, economic security is a crucial element of national security. It impacts sovereignty, protection of national resources and strategic sectors, standard of living, and political and social stability.
The protection of the economic system in industries and companies of strategic importance is of the highest priority. Therefore, SOA monitors the situation in these sectors and companies in order to protect Croatian economic interests.
SOA monitors processes related to security, business and finance which have the ability to affect the positioning and stability of Croatian economic entities abroad, with a particular focus on those operating in unstable regions.
