However, large external imbalances in parts of the region have raised questions about sustainability and concerns about vulnerabilities. Empirical evidence in this paper suggest that the convergence trend of emerging Europe is based on strong fundamentals and is expected to continue, but at a slower pace. Moreover, the convergence path may be volatile as countries with large external imbalances adjust, with risks of a hard landing in some cases. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers 606 $aBalance of payments$zEurope, Eastern 606 $aBalance of payments$zEurope, Central 606 $aConvergence (Economics)$zEurope 607 $aEurope, Eastern$xEconomic conditions 607 $aEurope, Central$xEconomic conditions 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBalance of payments 615 0$aBalance of payments 615 0$aConvergence (Economics) 676 $a337.47 700 $aVamvakidis$b Athanasios$0939582 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463594703321 996 $aConvergence in emerging Europe$92118013 997 $aUNINA
