Abstract

In a simple two-sector open economy model with non-shiftable capital, which is akin to the new free market economies of east European countries, this paper shows that, for a certain configuration of capital stocks, a temporary price intervention results in a better allocation of investment. It is also established that the level of intervention shouldbe declining during the period in question.
