Produktbeschreibung
The global financial crisis catalyzed burst of the bubble of overheated Latvian economy. Accrued macroeconomic imbalances and obvious asymmetry between nominal and real exchange rates of the national currency caused outspreading of well - grounded speculations regarding devaluation of the Latvian lats as most suitable solution for evidently necessary macroeconomic adjustment.

However, internal devaluation did not sort out all problems, because external stability of the exchange rate was still be endangered by uncertainties.
