Abstract

This paper deals with the system of operational funding of enterprises in a centrally planned economy. The analysis focuses on the case of Czechoslovak Socialist Republic before 1989. A tool analyzed in the paper – credits for constantly revolving working capital – had played the main role in the planned Czechoslovak economic system. These credits for constantly revolving working capital can be described as specific frameworks for loans based on forecasts and plans of volume of production made by Czechoslovak state institutions. The system had created inefficiencies in the economy and its heritage seriously influenced processes in the period of transformation after 1989, as the paper concludes.
