Stockholm Institute of Transition Economics  

FREE Policy Briefs

The Forum for Research on Eastern Europe and Emerging Economies (FREE) is a joint initiative by SITE and our six sister institutes; BEROC, BICEPS, CEFIR, CenEA, ISET and KEI.
The FREE Policy Brief Series aims to provide short and informative analyses on current economic policy challenges in Eastern Europe and emerging economies. The writings will be based on academic research papers or policy work by the researchers at the different institutes and updated on a weekly basis. The ambition is to bridge the gap between ongoing academic research and policy making, to stimulate and contribute to the international debate as well as to intensify the interaction and discussion with other researchers, policy-makers, and business representatives across the world.

A new policy brief will appear on FREEpolicybriefs.org every Monday.
