This article addresses some theoretical and practical problems concerning coordination between the EPPO and national prosecuting authorities, seen from the Croatian perspective. Since investigations of the EPPO will be conducted according to national law, their efficiency will depend on the efficiency of national legal systems, but also on the efficiency of the EPPO's coordination with national authorities. There are two basic principles that regulate coordination between the EPPO and competent national prosecuting authorities: the principle of shared competence and the principle of sincere cooperation, meaning that the EPPO and national prosecuting authorities should work together and with the same goals, which implies mutual trust, loyalty and intense communication. Still, the EPPO exercises priority competence, which is reflected in its right of evocation. The analysis of some challenges to the system of shared competence and sincere cooperation, considered from the perspective of current Croatian criminal procedure legislation, shows that the complementarity principle may be a useful tool in regulating coordination between the EPPO and Croatian prosecuting authorities in specific situations where the EPPO must decide whether to use the right of evocation, although existing language barriers may reduce its practical utility.

This paper focuses on the role of Europol in the implementation of the EPPO Regulation and analyses the potential challenges for law enforcement in Croatia. For this purpose, a comparative method is used and future ideas for the practical implementation of the Regulation within Europol are presented. Part of the paper focuses on explaining the legal background of the work of the EPPO and its relation to Europol and Croatia. It then explains the challenges and opportunities for Europol after the EPPO becomes fully operational, including Europol analytical capacities, the possibilities for information exchange (SIENA), and Europol innovation capacities. In conclusion, the paper analyses concrete challenges and offers solutions for different problems that may arise in future relations between Europol and the EPPO. An outline is also given of the priorities of the Presidency of Croatia of the Council of the European Union in the first half of 2020 related to financial investigation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
