  Regional Economic Prospects

  The EBRD has called for urgent structural reforms in

  emerging Europe after winding back its economic

  forecasts. It said the worsening mood reflected a

  slowdown particularly in Russia, even as the threat

  from turmoil in the eurozone appeared to be abating.

   

   

  EBRD Chief Economist said the latest slowdown was 

  a "wakeup call across the region"
