Reforming the Financial Sector in Central European Countries

Studies in Economic Transition General Editors: Jens Hölscher, Senior Lecturer in Economics, University of Brighton; and Horst Tornann, Professor of Economics, Free University Berlin This new series has been established in response to a growing demand for a greater understanding of the transformation of economic systems. It brings together theoretical and empirical studies on economic transition and economic development. The post-communist transition from planned to market economies is one of the main areas of applied theory because in this field the most dramatic examples of change and economic dynamics can be found. The series aims to contribute to the understanding of specific major economic changes as well as to advance the theory of economic development. The implications of economic policy will be a major point of focus.
