Both candidates Barack Obama and John McCain welcomed the $ 700 billion rescue package which in itself went through frantic biparti- san talks at the White House and a dramatic vote in the Congress. The bailout was substantially improved in the negotiations by imposing better protections for the public interest but despite how good the plan is it does not seem to calm the markets. Meanwhile in an effort to address the credit crisis on the other side of the Atlantic the European finance ministers have agreed to raise the minimum guarantee of bank deposits to 50,000 euros across all EU member states and to work together on a package of other measures to limit the negative impact of the financial tensions in their economies. That has not yet produced the needed stability in the markets either. Thus as the financial crises unfolded over the past month the economic issue has shot the political agenda of both candidates. That has become apparent even in the first presidential debate which was supposed to be about foreign policy, but much of it focused on the economy. So as it is too early for the financial rescue package to restore confidence, the economic issue is becoming of paramount importance for the American voters and it makes them aware that whoever would elected president must be capable of handling the crisis with leadership and authority.

Most of you, too, have a position on whether Bulgaria and Romania's EU entry will be delayed by a year. Neither I, nor any other journalist can answer this question definitively at this time (for details, see Yuliana Boncheva's article on p. 22.) NATO and the European Union have been subjects of numerous articles in our publica- tion, among others. So I would rather switch your attention toward another topic now. Namely, it is the story by Chris Warde-Jones in the New York Times on Sofia as a tourist destination, which was published in the newspaper of record in early May. (We present it for you on p. 44.) This travel feature offers a refreshing view of the Bulgarian capital, written by someone who was impressed by images of the city that are, generally speaking, flattering.

Directors' Report Business Outlook In 2006, the Greek economy grew much faster than the European average growth rate, as real GDP growth in Greece exceeded 4%. Macroeconomic prospects and banking sector developments were positive, as evidenced by the fundamentals and results. In the new era of transformation and development of the Greek economy, domestic banks assumed a leading role in providing valuable assistance to private enterprise, both in Greece, and in the greater region. 2006 was a year of new major achievements, international acclaim and wide recognition for Eurobank. In the domestic market, Eurobank has established itself as the leading banking group, steadily strengthening and differentiating itself from its competitors. Abroad, the Bank implements a visionary and disciplined development strategy, turning into a powerful regional player with a major role in the markets of Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe (New Europe). Eurobank now addresses a market of more than 200 million residents, providing comprehensive coverage for all their needs for banking services and products. Acquisitions in Greece In March 2006, the Group increased its shareholding in Global Fund Management S.A. to 72% from 44.44%; as a result the company has been transferred from investments in associated undertakings to subsidiary undertakings. Disposals in Greece Eurobank and Intracom Holdings concluded the share transfer of the 100% of the share capital of Hellas on Line from Eurobank EFG to Intracom Holdings in January 2006.

I am almost certain that you would not have noticed this absence, had I not mentioned it, and the reason is that the elections went by in a completely predictable fashion. Boyko Borisov, the leader of the newly formed GERB party, won in Sofia, and his associates took Plovdiv, Bourgas, Vidin, Dobrich, Stara Zagora, Yambol and Sliven. The ruling BSP got only Blagoevgrad, Varna, Lovech, Pernik and Smolian. The "democratic forces" - or what remains of them - got a mayor in Pleven only. In other words, a little over one-third of Bulgarian voters went to the polls and gave almost the entire local power to the former secretary of the Ministry of the Interior. Boyko Borisov himself - or "the General" as he is known for some reason - immediately declared that this is a harbinger of early parliamentary elections. We at AmCham Bulgaria Magazine think that the former policeman should be left to rule in Sofia, the former soccer star Yordan Lechkov, and all their GERB colleagues - where voters put them.

  • The Bulgarian Banking System and the EU Single Financial Market: Measuring the Level of Integration Using DEA
    The Bulgarian Banking System and the EU Single Financial Market: Measuring the level of integration using DEA Lyubomir Mirchev Abstract: This paper analyses the development of the Bulgarian Banking Market and its integration towards the Single European Financial Market. This analysis is made through different than the standard perspective, using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for estimating and comparing the efficiency of the Bulgarian and foreign banks. For investigating the presence of integration processes, the changes in the technical efficiency levels for a sample of Bulgarian and European banks are compared. In this framework the attention is brought also over the development of the Bulgarian banking market in the period 1999 – 2008 and the effect of privatization as a form of financial integration, which is examined by distinguishing between groups of locally and foreign owned banks. The results suggest that a positive trend of efficiency development of the Bulgarian banks is in place, in which significant role play the increasing competition and the penetration of foreign players on the local market. The difference in the technical efficiency levels between the Bulgarian and European markets remains material, which supposes that the locally presented banks are utilizing their resources less optimally than the European ones. However there is strong evidence for integration in terms of convergence between the efficiency levels, provided by the presence of beta and sigma convergence.
