Capital imports in Eastern Europe: Guarantee or obstacle for economic stability and growth?

Thomas Linne, Silke Tober

Wirtschaft im Wandel, No. 9, 1995

Abstract

Zudem bewirken die Nettokapitalimporte tendenziell eine Verschlechterung der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit inländischer Unternehmen. Eine Reduzierung der Kreditaufnahme der Unternehmen und des Staates im Ausland ist daher dringend geboten.
