For this purpose, we employ conventional linear unit root tests as well as a nonlinear unit root test developed by Kapetanios et al. (2003) to examine stationarity properties of real interest rate differentials of the transition countries vis-a-vis Russia, the USA, and Germany. The results provide evidence in favor of real interest rate parity for most of the series, especially when possible nonlinearities in the adjustment process are taken into account.
