The Bank of Finland Institute for Economies in Transition (BOFIT) conducts high-level research on transition economics and monitors economic developments in Russia and China. Research focuses on (but is not limited to) issues related to macroeconomic performance and financial markets in transition economies. BOFIT publishes a discussion paper series and also a more policy-oriented BOFIT Online series. In addition, BOFIT Weekly follows economic developments in Russia and China.
BOFIT welcomes applications for posts in its Visiting Researchers Programme. Scholarships for 1–6 months are available for high-level research projects in areas pertinent to the Institute's research objectives. However, senior scholars seeking shorter research visits will also be considered.
The application period for the first half of 2013 will be in August-September 2012.
