Italian banking giant UniCredit has revised
its growth forecast for the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE)
region, anticipating 2.3 percent growth for 2010 instead of just
1.4 percent.

The upgrade was due largely to a better
outlook for Turkey and Russia, a report by the bank said, although
several smaller countries would still experience recession in
2010. 

“CEE recovery is underway,” the report said, “but growth
differentiation will remain relatively strong in 2010.”

Further predictions included a “moderate
underperformance” for Poland in 2011, as well as Turkey’s central
bank being the first to increase interest rates in 2010.

Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and the Baltic
states were expected to have most difficulty in 2010.
