Abstract

In this paper we analyse the evolution of the RER and its main fundamentals for a group of Central and Eastern European countries. We focus particularly on the possibility of structural breaks in the relationship. We find clear evidence of breaks, mainly caused by the great recession. We find that a combination of both supply-side and demand-side effects are behind the variations in the real exchange rate, and overall, capital inflows have contributed to improve competitiveness in these countries.
