In the overwhelming majority of cases, toxic products were e.g. largely absent from the balance sheets of the financial institutions in the new Members States, and most of them conducted a rather prudent and sound investment policy. For this reason, it is not surprising that there was no need for any major banking bailout operation in the region – although the crisis undoubtedly hit the economies of the new Member States in a more severe way, and put to trial both the spirit and the practice of European solidarity. more
