Deep dives
Soaring wages in Eastern Europe could hurt the region's attractiveness
The International Monetary Fund warns that rising wages in Eastern Europe have outpaced productivity growth, making the region less attractive to Western European companies. The IMF also predicts that this wage increase is unlikely to help these countries tackle inflation, which is higher than the EU average. However, some countries, like Poland, are expected to further increase wages in response to labor union pressure.
