"After a long experience of ups and downs of public and private sectors, a new economic policy has been promulgated. The impact of the new trend of the economy on private money market is a matter of curiousity in both economic and political circles. In today\'s mixed economic structure privatisation and liberalisation has dominated the market economy." (jacket)
