In 2007, Croatian Peasant Party of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the New Croatian Initiative merged. The New Croatian Initiative was formed as a splinter group from the Croatian Democratic Union of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Krešimir Zubak. They were originally named HSS-NHI (CPP-NCI). After HSS-NHI underwent turmoil and internal divisions grew, a division of former HSS members led by Ljiljana Lovrić left the party and reestablished HSS in 2010. Shortly afterwards, another splinter group from HSS-NHI led by Anto Lozančić formed HSS Stjepan Radić. In 2014 general elections, they chose not to stand in the elections. HSS Stjepan Radić is a member party of the Croatian National Assembly.[1]

In the 2020–24 legislative period, HSS SR has the majority in one municipality in the country, Croat-majority Dobretići.
