Zusammenfassung:
Die mittel- und osteurop\u00e4ischen L\u00e4nder (MOEL) stellen wichtige Ziell\u00e4nder f\u00fcr die Direktinvestitions-Aktivit\u00e4ten \u00f6sterreichischer Unternehmen und Banken dar. Seit 2001 entfielen stets \u00fcber 50% der gesamten ausl\u00e4ndischen Direktinvestitionen (FDI) auf diese Region, was sich erst 2009 durch die globale Wirtschaftskrise \u00e4nderte. Umgekehrt ist \u00d6sterreich f\u00fcr viele MOEL einer der wichtigsten FDI-Investoren. Der Finanzsektor spielt bei den FDI \u00d6sterreichs eine bedeutende Rolle \u2013 mehr als die H\u00e4lfte der FDI-Best\u00e4nde entfallen auf den Finanzsektor. Die globale Wirtschaftskrise hat auch die MOEL 2009 stark getroffen, mit Auswirkungen unter anderem auf den Finanzsektor. F\u00fcr die in den MOEL engagierten \u00f6sterreichischen Banken ist vor allem der prononcierte Anstieg der notleidenden Kredite in mehreren L\u00e4ndern der Region problematisch. Dies erfordert zus\u00e4tzlichen Mittelbedarf \u2013 auch bei den Muttergesellschaften \u2013 f\u00fcr Risikovorsorgen und Kreditabschreibungen. Trotz dieser ung\u00fcnstigen Entwicklungen scheinen, zumindest einige der \u00f6sterreichischen Banken, ihre Expansionsstrategie in der MOEL-Region fortzusetzen, denn f\u00fcr 2010 wurden bereits neue FDI-Projekte \u00f6sterreichischer Banken angek\u00fcndigt, was f\u00fcr die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung in der Region durchaus positiv zu werten ist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Roman St\u00f6llinger (wiiw)
Central and Eastern European countries (CEECs) represent important target countries for the direct investment activities of Austrian companies and banks. Since 2001, this region has consistently accounted for more than 50% of total foreign direct investment (FDI), a trend that changed only in 2009 as a result of the global economic crisis. Conversely, Austria is one of the most important FDI investors for many CEECs. The financial sector plays a significant role in Austria’s FDI – more than half of FDI stocks are in the financial sector. The global economic crisis also hit CEECs hard in 2009, with effects on the financial sector, among others. The pronounced increase in non-performing loans in several countries in the region is particularly problematic for Austrian banks operating in the CEECs. This requires additional funding – also from parent companies – for risk provisions and loan write-offs. Despite these unfavorable developments, at least some of the Austrian banks seem to be continuing their expansion strategy in the CEE region, as new FDI projects by Austrian banks have already been announced for 2010, which is definitely positive for economic development in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
