Foreign Participation in Privatisation: What does it Mean? Empirical Evidence from the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland

Abstract

This article conveys an understanding of the scope and pattern of foreign involvement in the overall privatisation programmes of three prominent countries in transition: the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland. It starts with a short description of the respective privatisation programmes, singling out property rights at the onset of transition and what imprint the interests of company insiders had on privatisation policies. It combines this with quantitative and qualitative data and arguments on foreign involvement in the different phases of the privatisation programmes to come to an assessment of foreign involvement in the Czech, Hungarian and Polish privatisation programmes as a whole.
