Regulation of Financial Advisory in the Czech Republic
Klofáč, Michal ; Kříž, Radim (advisor) ; Hásová, Jiřina (referee)
Consulting one's personal finance with a financial advisor should allow even the less financially educated to optimize their financial portfolio. The client-advisor relationship is however a strong case of information asymmetry, which can result in harm being made to the client by the advisor, either knowingly (when the advisor attempts to maximize their own utility, even at the client's cost) or unknowingly (e.g. when the advisor is inadequately qualified in the field). One of the ways to reduce such risks is a proper regulatory framework, which is the core subject of the thesis. At first, the thesis analyzes the current state of financial advisory in the Czech Republic (how it is performed, what part of the population benefits from it, what the main problems are etc.) and shows how the client-advisor interaction ought to be performed. The main part of the thesis describes what the main problems and risks for the client are and which legal measures exist that can reduce these negative effects. The current legal framework in the Czech Republic is then thoroughly analyzed and compared with best-practice of select EU states. Finally, legal measures which are currently being discussed or passed as laws are mentioned. In the very end, other measures which could help make the field of financial advisory in the Czech Republic more efficient are suggested. The aim of the thesis is to provide a compact overview of the regulatory measures currently affecting financial advisory in the Czech Republic, show them in the international context and test the hypothesis that the Czech market of financial advisory is still relatively immature and that further appropriate regulation would improve its effectiveness resulting in higher protection of clients.

Economic and social aspects of overindebtedness of households in Czech Republic after 2000
Švec, František ; Jílek, Josef (advisor) ; Řežábek, Pavel (referee)
The thesis deals with the issue of excessive debt of households. In the first part the analysis of development of indebtedness of households was made and it was found out, that consumer loans are the most risky. Consumer loans are associated with the highest ratio of defaulting loans and are the leading cause of bankruptcies of individuals in the Czech Republic. The following chapter analyzes institutional environment of credit market and detects current weaknesses. These weaknesses consist in insufficient oversight of nonbank provider of consumer loans, absence of upper limit of annual percentage rate for consumer credit and credit availability to risk groups of households. Another cause of overindebtedness of households is insufficient financial literacy in Czech Republic. The reduced consumption has been identified as the most significant impact of overindebtedness of households. It is caused by transferring funds from households with a higher propensity to consume to households with a lower propensity to consume. Lower household consumption leads also to lower government revenue collected through the value added tax. Another economic impact we can see for example in increasing poverty of households, increasing criminality, higher government spending on health care or potential political radicalization. The thesis results are proposals of legislative measures that would mitigate the economic impact of overindebtedness of households. These measures lie primarily in the regulation of consumer credit market and greater consumer protection. The specific options are an extension of supervision by the Czech National Bank on nonbank providers of consumer loans, determining the upper limit of annual percentage rate, more thorough application of the legal obligation to examine the ability of borrowers to repay loans. Another option is to reduce the limit of 30 % of paid-up commitments in insolvency law.
