Countries covered: Czech Republic, Hungary, SEE, Serbia, Visegrad countries

The current global economic crisis is affecting the countries of Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe (CEE and SEE) in some ways more severely than other European countries. Moreover these economies face more con-straints in putting the types of policies in place which are currently pursued in most of Western Europe, the USA and Japan. However, policies designed to stabilize the banking system and provide fiscal stimulus have as much justifi-cation to be pursued in these economies as in the higher-income countries. Therefore a coordinated approach by EU institutions and EU governments (in cooperation with IFIs) is needed to find a path out of the crisis.

This panel will discuss how the international financial crisis is affecting different CEE and SEE economies as well as the possibility for coordinated policy packages to be put in place.
