Faced with a short-term deflationary/disinflationary environment, global corporations will lack pricing power and will have to work aggressively on costs to support the bottom line. This will continue to have important implications for CEE markets that have benefited from off-shoring.

In terms of the geographic location of production such pressures could end up producing more not less off-shoring

Potential threat: due to high fiscal deficit numbers, taxes could be increased in the future

On-going hope for CEE
