Article Abstract:
Countries considered as being emerging markets hold potentially lucrative opportunities as well as risks in terms of trade and commerce. A scrutiny of the emerging economies of Hungary, Vietnam and Panama reveals that they have each experienced a dramatic transformation since roughly 1996 and the pace of change within these states will not likely decelerate in the near future. Yet they are still in their infancy in many ways. Of the three, Hungary offers a viable consumer market, which should become healthier as its exports to the EU increase.
