The basic issue was the liberalization of prices and free trade on the one hand and privatization of governmental property on the other hand. The strategy was to implement the change as fast as possible by an economic healing shock. The privatization was planned as a short time task. The priority of this short term process was speed and volume. The privatization process was accomplished by different methods. Nevertheless the most important method of privatization was the form of transformations of state owned assets to stock companies with the following privatization of the company stocks.
