However, since each economy has its own particularity, theimplemented changes still have not ensured balance in the total economy,competitiveness of the national economy and economic stability. This paper aimsto explore to which extent the state engaged in taking adequate measures toimprove investments in tourism and accompanying infrastructure enabling itsinfluence on structural changes in the total economy, its long-term sustainability,and economic stability.

Therefore, the competitiveadvantage of Montenegro as a tourist destination can be increased if tourismdevelopment is encouraged by systematic measures.
