Central and Eastern Europe : Financial Markets and Private Capital Flows, Research Paper 9626

DATE: August 1996

With the collapse of Communist governments throughout the region beginning in 1989 most countries in the region were absorbed in a political and economic upheaval unimaginable only years earlier. Today, while the amount of private capital entering Central and Eastern Europe is still a very small fraction of that provided to all developing countries, it has nonetheless begun to flow in. Whereas the countries in Central and Eastern Europe as a group were running capital account deficits in the early 1990s, this situation turned around beginning in 1992, as reform programs in a number of countries started to take hold.
