After application of two models based on AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) process, generally the evidence for still limited level of the integration between “new” and “old” European Union countries is found before and after May 1st, 2004. The same tendency is apparent in the relations only between CEECs, however with visible interdependence of Hungarian and Polish... (More)

Short complementary analysis in form of regime switching process estimation partly confirms above-mentioned findings. (Less)
