Another difference with past financial downturns in emerging markets is that investments in the EBRD region – Eastern Europe, Southeastern Europe, Turkey, and the former Soviet Union – have turned out to be long term, rather than short-term or speculative. Western entrepreneurs and investors have increasingly come to view Europe’s east as a part of a (now broader) domestic market and have behaved with a longer-term view.
新兴市场与先前金融衰退时期的另一点不同则体现在对欧洲复兴开发银行运作的地区——即东欧，东南欧，土耳其与前苏联国家——的投资已经转变为长期投资，而非往日的短期投资或投机行为 。西欧企业家和投资者越来越把东欧视为欧盟内部市场的一部分，而这部分市场如今正变得更加广阔。此外，企业家和投资者已经开始以更长远的目光对待自己的投资行为，这就为本地区带来了非常必要的金融和投资市场稳定。
