Kyrgyz Republic: Recent Economic Developments
International Monetary Fund
This paper describes economic developments in the Kyrgyz Republic during the 1990s. The cash fiscal deficit increased from 7.7 percent of GDP in 1994 to 12.5 percent of GDP in 1995. The authorities encountered difficulties in raising revenues early in the year, but with the implementation of measures to strengthen tax collection, taxes were maintained at about 13.5 percent of GDP for the year as a whole. However, total budget revenues fell from 21 percent of GDP in 1994 to 16 percent of GDP in 1995, reflecting a sharp decline in central bank profit transfers and food grants.

Recent Trade Policies and An Approach to Further Reform in the Baltics, Russia, and Other Countries of the Former Soviet Union
Mr. Michael P. Leidy
and
Mr. Ali Ibrahim
This paper reviews the extent to which the Fund’s trade policy advice to the Baltic countries, Russia and other countries of the Former Soviet Union has been implemented. It broadly traces the evolution of trade policies, emphasizing the period from mid-1993 through end-1995, attempting to identify some of the factors affecting uneven progress in trade reform. Based on insights from the public choice literature on endogenous policy theory, the paper makes recommendations for refining Fund advice with a view to facilitating future progress on the trade-policy front.

Kyrgyz Republic: Recent Economic Developments
International Monetary Fund
This paper reviews economic developments in the Kyrgyz Republic during 1990–95. From October 1993 onward, the authorities vigorously pursued restrictive credit policies, which led to monthly inflation rates falling from more than 30 percent in September and October 1993 to low single-digit levels from the spring of 1994 onward. In early 1994, all of the structural measures contemplated under the 1993 program were implemented. In May 1994, the government formulated a comprehensive medium-term economic program (1994–97) to stabilize further the economy and accelerate its structural transformation.
