INTERNATIONAL MOVEMENT OF CAPITAL - DEBT FINANCES: THE CASE OF SIX POST-COMMUNIST ECONOMIES

  • Manuela Raisová

Abstract

Foreign loans represent an attractive source of external financing for countries with relatively low domestic
capital base while in developed economies it is considered to be a suitable form of investment for foreign
investors in investment portfolio creation. As an additional source of capital it helps less developed countries to
finance their economic activities. Empirical literature suggests debt capital inflows have a significant impact on
various indicators in the foreign debt capital target economy and its productivity. In the paper we analyze various
effects of debt capital inflows on the selected economic indicators in the capital receiving country. Our research
includes countries which have undergone the transformation process recently, while they share another common
characteristic feature, namely they have been functioning as independent economies for a very short period of
time.
