The findings of a study that documented the views of chief financial officers about doing business in Eastern Europe in 1993 are updated based on a survey of United States senior financial officers in 2004. The survey reports that risk, as well as returns, are perceived as lower but financial executives still perceive inefficiencies and ineffectiveness in financial markets in Eastern Europe.
