To nije samo zbog Balassa-Samuelsonovog efekta (koji sobom nosi nagli porast u cijeni međunarodno neutržive robe), nego i zbog mogućih sukoba između značajno većeg državnog budžeta (gdje potrošnja može rasti za 4-5% od BDP-a zbog post-pristupnih zahtjeva i raspoloživosti sredstava EU) i stalnog obaranja inflacije koje se zahtijeva u cilju pristupanja u monetarnu uniju.
This is not only because of the Balassa-Samuelson effect (entailing a sharp rise in the price of non-tradeables), but also because of possible conflicts between a considerably larger public budget (with expenditures that can rise by 4-5% of GDP due to post-accession requirements and the availability of EU funds) and the sustained disinflation that is required by accession into the monetary union.
