Abstract

[eng] The enlargement of the European Union to include Central and Eastern European countries has implications for the real economy and should result in financial transfers (financial assistance) to the new member states. The aim of this report is to analyse the financial benefits of future EU accession these countries may expect, and the advantages some could enjoy from their participation to EMU membership. The CEECs’ level of economic development is a crucial issue, since it is essentially this measure which determines the amount of financial assistance they may receive in the post-accession period. . JEL classifications : F35, P20 [fre] Les gains attendus par les pays d’Europe Centrale et Orientale de l’élargissement de l’Union européenne et de l’entrée dans l’euro . L’élargissement de l’Union européenne aux pays d’Europe Centrale et Orientale comporte des effets économiques réels et est susceptible de provoquer des transferts financiers vers les nouveaux pays membres (l’aide financière). On propose ici une analyse des gains financiers que pourrait leur procurer une future adhésion à l’UE, ainsi que les avantages que certains d’entre eux pourraient retirer de leur période de préparation à une entrée dans l’Union économique et monétaire. Dans ce cadre, la question du niveau de développement des PECO est cruciale car elle détermine largement le montant des aides financières auxquelles ils pourront prétendre après l’adhésion. . Classification JEL : F35, P20
