Financial markets have remained very volatile in recent weeks, amid concerns about the US and world economy and the news regarding some banking institutions. However, despite substantial losses in the stock markets both internationally and in the CEE countries, the deterioration in the country risk during the month of March - in terms of credit default swap (CDS) - was relatively limited in most of the CEE economies, with some exceptions. Indeed financial markets are discriminating more than before among different countries, and are particularly sensitive to any bad news originating from the domestic level.
The automotive industry in CEE is still operating at high speed: almost 6.2 mn passenger cars and commercial vehicles were produced in the region during 2007, according to figures recently released by OICA. Production in CEE grew by 18.7% in 2007, much higher than the world average of 5.5%. The CEE region produces now more than one fourth of the vehicles produced in Europe.
