The central focus is on the issues that policymakers in central Europe face as they craft macroeconomic and financial sector policies to help ensure growth that is both strong and sustainable, in a setting that may feature large and potentially volatile capital flows. It examines the competing pressures on these countries in the run-up to EU accession later, and monetary union. 410 0$aBooks 606 $aFinance$zEurope, Central 606 $aBanks and banking$zEurope, Central 606 $aPrivatization$zEurope, Central 606 $aBanks and Banking$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aInflation$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aProduction and Operations Management$2imf 606 $aIndustries: Financial Services$2imf 606 $aBanks$2imf 606 $aDepository Institutions$2imf 606 $aMicro Finance Institutions$2imf 606 $aMortgages$2imf 606 $aFiscal Policy$2imf 606 $aPrice Level$2imf 606 $aDeflation$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aBanking$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aMonetary economics$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aExchange rates$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aTotal factor productivity$2imf 606 $aFiscal policy$2imf 606 $aCommercial banks$2imf 606 $aFinancial institutions$2imf 606 $aPrices$2imf 606 $aFinancial sector$2imf 606 $aEconomic sectors$2imf 606 $aBanks and banking$2imf 606 $aIndustrial productivity$2imf 606 $aFinancial services industry$2imf 607 $aEurope, Central$xEconomic conditions 607 $aEurope$xEconomic integration 607 $aCzech Republic$2imf 615 0$aFinance 615 0$aBanks and banking 615 0$aPrivatization 615 7$aBanks and Banking 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aInflation 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aProduction and Operations Management 615 7$aIndustries: Financial Services 615 7$aBanks 615 7$aDepository Institutions 615 7$aMicro Finance Institutions 615 7$aMortgages 615 7$aFiscal Policy 615 7$aPrice Level 615 7$aDeflation 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aBanking 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aMonetary economics 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aExchange rates 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aTotal factor productivity 615 7$aFiscal policy 615 7$aCommercial banks 615 7$aFinancial institutions 615 7$aPrices 615 7$aFinancial sector 615 7$aEconomic sectors 615 7$aBanks and banking 615 7$aIndustrial productivity 615 7$aFinancial services industry 676 $a330.943 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814670203321 996 $aInto the EU$94098573 997 $aUNINA
