| "How Latvia Came through the Financial Crisis" by Anders Åslund and Valdis Dombrovskis May 2011, Peterson Institute for International Economics. Latvia stands out as the East European country hardest hit by the global financial crisis; it was also the most overheated economy before the crisis. But in the second half of 2010, Latvia returned to economic growth. How did this happen so quickly? Current Latvian Prime Minister Valdis Dombrovskis and renowned author Anders Åslund discuss why the Latvian economy became so overheated; why an IMF and European Union stabilization program was needed; what the Latvian government did to resolve the financial crisis and why it made these choices. | |
