From pre-crisis to crisis period five of the SEE indices worsen their market efficiency in the terms of the weak form of the EMH. The group of indices with relatively high market efficiency during the post-crisis period is the largest one in comparison with the previous periods. All things considered, it seems reasonable to assume that SEE markets aren’t homogeneous and uniform in the contest of EMH.}, number={1-2}, journal={International Journal of Contemporary Economics and Administrative Sciences}, author={STOITSOVA-STOYKOVA, ANI and Tsenkov, Vladimir}, year={2017}, month={Jun.}, pages={31–56} }
