Corruption and Private Participation Projects in Central and Eastern Europe

Recent research looks into the problem of corruption in ‘public private partnerships’ in emerging markets. Most previous studies “analyse projects in developed economies and the few that are focused on emerging economies mostly neglect Central and Eastern European countries (CEECs). This is a shortcoming, given that CEECs constitute an increasingly attractive region for investors and have thus witnessed a significant increase in foreign direct investment (FDI) flows in recent times.”
