Abstract

In this paper we investigate Feldstein Horioka puzzle for 14 CEE countries (Albania, Bosnia
and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Hungary, Kosovo, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia,
Estonia,Poland,Romania,Serbia). In our paper when we investigate the whole sample fo 14 CEE
countries we find less positive association between investment and savings meaning that capital
is highly mobile. While when we regress the subsample of those countries from the sample
which are EU members we find the lowest coeffcient of association between investment and
saving therefore capital is highly mobile in those countries.While in the Non-EU members from
this CEE countires the coeficient is highest 0.13 ,meaning there is lowest capital mobility. Unit
root tests proved that in this sample of countries savings are I(1) or I(2) process, and
investments are stationary.
