Evaluation of the interaction between the state seaport governance model and port performance indicators

Abstract

From the economical point of view the state enterprises are related with large-scale investments into the infrastructure and it is the main reason why these enterprises are not attractive for the private business, but they are very important for the whole national development strategy. Taking into account the Eastern Baltic Sea region, dominance of state -seaports, the current common port operational concepts and their factors, it may be stated the combined features of Keynesian, monetarism, institutionalism economic theories, and modern management theories such as theory of complex adaptive systems may be observed in the performance of seaports. It is important because the effective management of state seaport is based on the creation of public and private capital synergy for the creation of strong economic and social added value.
