    Abstract

    Since the onset of the financial crisis, corporate investment has declined sharply. The largest falls in firms’ investment from peak to trough have been in Greece, Latvia, Ireland, Estonia, Slovenia and Lithuania, the countries hardest hit by the financial crisis. While much of the declines in investment can be linked to poor macroeconomic conditions and a lack of profitable investment opportunities, financing constraints due to financial market imperfections may also have played a role.
