Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The formerly planned economies (FPEs) of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union are a rather disparate group of nations with widely differing financial structures. In some of the countries of Eastern Europe the financial infrastructure is beginning to assume the characteristics that are found in the West. In other instances, the very institutions of a functioning financial system hardly exist. Thus, the tasks faced by policy-makers in these countries can vary from the reform of existing institutions to the creation of brand new ones. However, in all instances it is important to focus on the steps that must be taken to develop the financial institutions with the incentive structure for efficient capital market allocations and the provision of a stable payments mechanism, as well as the mechanisms for the conduct of monetary policy. In this paper we will outline the issues and problems faced by the financial sector in the transition from a planned to a market economy.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic integration is the most noteworthy development in international economic policy at the end of this century. Enthusiasm for the European Union has been infectuous. Yet, there are many aspects for the EU that still remain obscure and which warrant further careful scrutiny. The subject of this book is the examination of the inherent economic and political inefficiencies in the transition process of Central and East European countries which are apt to slow down its pace, divert it from its proper course and, in some cases, even endanger its sustainability. The authors of the contributions in this book, economists and political scientists, investigate the applicability of the hyperthesis of mutual benefits resulting from countries in transition becoming open to international trade and investment.

Download or read book Research on China s Public Finance Construction Index System written by Peiyong Gao and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-09 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book employs a qualitative analysis of China’s publicly financed construction sector, taking the system design as its point of departure and applying comprehensive evaluation techniques to create an index system for this type of construction – which in turn serves as a basis for quantitatively evaluating China’s publicly financed construction sector. Given the fact that China’s publicly financed construction sector is a very complex field of systems engineering involving multiple subsystems, as an important indicator of China’s fiscal innovations since its reform and opening, publicly financed construction is now shifting from theory to practice, demonstrating that China has entered an era of fully publicly financed construction.
