Abstract

Privatization has been, so far, one of the most visible achievements of market economic reforms in Russia. Along with economic stabilization and institution-building, privatization creates prerequisites of structural transformation and economic efficiency gains in the future. This opportunity is generated by the emergence of new private enterprise owners, changes in managerial elites and improved corporate governance.

The author works for the Secretariat of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe. The views expressed here are his own and do not necessarily reflect those of the Secretariat.
