Today’s tourists are looking for more than just natural beauty. Companies in the tourism sector need constant investments in maintaining their properties, investing and current standards improvement.
The main goal of this paper is to determine how the companies in the tourism sector, listed on the Zagreb Stock Exchange, use their assets.

These three indicators are calculated for the period of the years 2017, 2012 and 2008. The data are processed statistically with the SPSS program. The results show that a company’s management was more efficient in 2017 than in 2012 or 2008 in using its assets to generate profit or revenue.
