The underlying cause of the crisis, however, was the failure to restructure bank assets. Banks had long accumulated bad loans and failed to account for them in their portfolios. Therefore, a banking crisis had been overdue for some time. It can be said that the banking system was bound for serious trouble even if the August 1998 crisis had not occurred. This contribution does not address the crisis itself, nor does it elaborate extensively on the role of the Agency for Restructuring of Credit Organisations (ARCO) or the government in restructuring (see: ‘Bank Restructuring: Developments in 1999’ by K. Eggenberger in this issue). Rather, this report concentrates on the restructuring that has taken place in the banking system, describes how restructuring was achieved, andidentifies the winners and losers in this process.","PeriodicalId":383400,"journal":{"name":"Russian Economic Trends","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133433520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The role of machinery and other manufactured goods needs to increase. This restructuring of exports could successfully start on markets within the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) provided that the existing system of payments inside the CIS is changed. The authors believe that such change could be achieved by introduction for CIS member countries of a multilateral payments system (MPS) similar to the European Payments Union (EPU), which was successfully used in Europe in the 1950s. The clearing currency for the proposed system could be the euro, the new multinational European currency. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Adoption of the euro in such a role would support integration of CIS countries, which are not candidates for EU membership, with the European Union.

This paper examines the existing tendency in public spending policy in Russia and attempts to answer questions on the optimal size of the government and efficient structure of public outlays. Methods of international comparison and cross-regional analysis were applied in the research. International comparisons show that public expenditure in Russia as a percentage of GDP is very close to average expenditure in OECD countries. At the same time, investigation of expenditure across Russian regions shows negative correlation between the growth rate of per capita income and public spending, although positive influence of some expenditure items on growth is evident.","PeriodicalId":383400,"journal":{"name":"Russian Economic Trends","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134430159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results provide strong evidence that domestic product market competition, import competition, and local labor market competition have large, positive effects on total factor productivity. The impact of liberalization appears only gradually in the domestic product market, taking about four years to attain 90 percent of the long-run value, but we find no such lags with respect to import competition or labor market competition. The data indicate that local product market competition may be more important than national competition in Russia, suggesting that markets are geographically segmented. Better transportation infrastructure appears to facilitate product market competition, while at the same time reducing firms' monopsony power on the labor market by facilitating worker mobility. We also find that non-state firms outperform state enterprises, even after controlling for selection bias in the determination of ownership. The results suggest that a reduction in import barriers, investment in transportation infrastructure, and elimination of interregional administrative trade barriers would stimulate industrial growth.","PeriodicalId":383400,"journal":{"name":"Russian Economic Trends","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132882800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
