Kerclová, Helena ; Dvořáková, Vladimíra (advisor) ; Němec, Jan (referee)
According to a lot of experts presidential systems under conditions of multipartism are leading to instability, because there is peril of executive-legislative deadlocks. This thesis is focusing on three stable countries under these conditions (Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay). The main goal of this thesis is to find out the sources of system stability of these three countries. The thesis analyzes them on the basis of four criteria (number of parties, ideological distance, party system institutionalization and simultaneous presidential and parliamentary elections together with electoral system). This thesis analyzes election results of these countries since their transition to democracy. The thesis demonstrated, that party system format is not crucial for stability. More important is his stability together with the same actors and unchangeable ties between them.

Valuation of Companies in Emerging Markets
Budinsky, Karl ; Krabec, Tomáš (advisor) ; Hnilica, Jiří (referee)
In this thesis the distinctive features and challenges of the company valuation in emerging markets are presented. The valuation approach considered as superior in comparison to other methodologies, the triangulating method, is applied to a company from the emerging market of Brazil, the aircraft manufacturer Embraer. The triangulation valuation approach comprises one primary method, the scenario discounted cash flow valuation, and two secondary approaches, the valuation based on multiples and the valuation with a country-risk built into the cost of capital. At the beginning, the valuation methods prevalent in developed markets are presented. Afterwards, for the emerging markets, the applicability of these approaches from the developed world is assessed. In addition, potentially useful modifications are identified. In advance of the detailed valuation of Embraer, the Brazilian macroeconomic situation and its main financial market, the Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias & Futuros de Sao Paulo (BOVESPA), will be analyzed.

BRIC - a group of special attention
Selezneva, Evgeniya ; Žamberský, Pavel (advisor) ; Suchá, Tereza (referee)
BRICs is an acronym for a group of four emerging countries: Brazil, Russia, India and China. The sequence of letters in the word is determined not only by harmony but also by the fact that the word BRIC in the English transcription is very similar to the word "brick". Members of BRICs are characterized as the most rapidly developing major countries. Advantageous position of these countries is ensured by a large number of important resources they possess: Brazil - agricultural products Russia - mineral resources India - cheap intellectual resources China - cheap labour force. In my work I want to focus mainly on two countries: Russia and China.
