Title The 'Transition impact' of the EBRD Presence in Central Asia
Summary Challenges of economic transition from the Soviet-type system to the market economy still exist in Central Asia. The thesis looks on the barriers that slow down the process of transition in the region, focusing its attention on the financial system as a foundation for the sustainable economic development. The study investigates the functioning of the EBRD, as a ‘transition bank’ in Central Asia, which helps to overcome these barriers. In the research cases of comparative analysis of banking reforms in Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan is presented. The research shows that the EBRD is an important agent in Central Asia that helps to improve financial system in the region and integrate it into global economy. The study is useful for understanding Central Asian economy, in particular, development of banking structure, as well as for understanding of the functions of International Financial Institutions in the region and, specifically, the work of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
