Inflation targeting in the Czech Republic compared with the Visegrad countries
Gergelyová, Jana ; Mandel, Martin (advisor) ; Zbyněk, Štork (referee)
This thesis is an analysis of inflation in the Czech Republic and the success of the Czech monetary policy compared with inflation targeting in the Visegrad countries. In the first part, I focused on the development of central banking and the role of central banks, the main actors of monetary policy, in relation to inflation. A common feature of the Visegrad Four is a monetary policy based on inflation targeting. The prediction of inflation compared with its actual development in a period of ten years is subject to the practical part, which is supple-mented by a wide range of graphs and tables that I have mainly compiled from data available on the websites of central banks of individual countries and Eurostat, the European Union statistical office.

Analysis of inflation dynamics in Czech Republic
Hubálek, Ondřej ; Hušek, Roman (advisor) ; Formánek, Tomáš (referee)
Bachelor work is focused on analysis of inflation dynamics in Czech Republic using econometric models. Inflation with its impacts, costs and possibilities of measuring is described in the first part of this work. There is also described influence of Czech national bank on inflation progress and inflation targeting. Part also contains basic econometric models for inflation analysis and models of adaptive expectations. Consequently there is described theory of econometrics analysis, focused on ordinary least squares method. There are also described factors that can negatively influence significance of estimated models. In the concrete it is heteroscedasticity, autocorrelation and multicolinearity. The empirical part contains econometric analysis of inflation in Czech Republic by itself, using models described in theoretical part. There are also used other models, coming out of economic hypothesis. In the end there are selected models for inflation prediction.

The development of monetary policy in the Czech Republic since 1990
Málek, Jakub ; Dočkal, Dalibor (advisor) ; Štěpánek, Pavel (referee)
The thesis deals with monetary policy applied by the central bank in Czech republic in the last 20 years. On the established theoretical basis analysis performed monetary policy since the transformation economic environment in 90's 20th century to the present. The aim thesis is to assess the results of the applied monetary policy in certain stages of economic development in the Czech republic and its impact on the economy and macroeconomic indicators. In the second half of analytical part connected to the analyzes of the applied monetary policy influence European union on the Czech monetary policy and requirement on its harmonization with European central bank's monetary policy, which is essential assumption to entry our country into higher degree of integration, thus joining into the European monetary union.

Straka, Patrick ; Jílek, Josef (advisor) ; Doležalová, Antonie (referee)
Aim of this work is to answer question, if inflation targeting as a final goal of monetary policy, is possible in Islamic country with interest free financial system. Firs part of this work compares primer characteristics of Islamic financial system to conventional system of west countries. Second part focuses on possible macroeconomic model changes to correspond to Islamic system. Third part tests previous presumptions for inflation targeting. Final part proposes some measures to monetary policy performance.

How Does Monetary Policy Change? Evidence on Inflation Targeting Countries
Baxa, Jaromír ; Horváth, R. ; Vašíček, B.
We examine the evolution of monetary policy rules in a group of inflation targeting countries (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Sweden and the United Kingdom), applying a moment-based estimator in a time-varying parameter model with endogenous regressors. Using this novel flexible framework, our main findings are threefold. First, monetary policy rules change gradually, pointing to the importance of applying a time-varying estimation framework. Second, the interest rate smoothing parameter is much lower than typically reported by previous time-invariant estimates of policy rules. External factors matter for all countries, although the importance of the exchange rate diminishes after the adoption of inflation targeting. Third, the response of interest rates to inflation is particularly strong during periods when central bankers want to break a record of high inflation, such as in the UK or Australia at the beginning of the 1980s.

The analysis of Monetary Policy of the Czech National Bank with an emphasis on inflation targeting
Justianová, Lucie ; Mirvald, Michal (advisor) ; Sedláček, Petr (referee)
Thesis bachelor topic is "Analysis of Monetary Policy of the Czech National Bank, with an emphasis on inflation targeting." In the introduction to summarize the CNB's monetary policy. Explain what types of transmission mechanisms were used the Czech National Bank. I will focus specifically on the transmission mehcanism of inflation targeting. Subsequently I will analyze how the CNB managed to maintain symmetry between inflation expectations and inflation target, which inspires me to work on empirical studies and Holub Hurnik [2008] and Horvath [2008]. I will analyze using the LM-test [Charemze-Deadman, 1992] and Granger causality tests between the existing impact of inflation and money supply, exchange rate and wage. I make a regression analysis generated by the VAR-model and show how strong the impact of inflation to changes in monetary, exchange rate and wage growth. If there is a stable state of the monitored variables in relation to inflation, I estimate what the rate impact of exchange rate changes, monetary and wages.

Inflation targeting in the Czech Republic
Spurná, Jitka ; Koderová, Jitka (advisor) ; Hýla, Pavel (referee)
This thesis deals with inflation targeting in the Czech Republic. The first part explains the basic concepts associated with inflation targeting. The thesis clarifies the concept of inflation, monetary policy instruments, types of inflation and their quantification. The analytical part is devoted directly to the situation in the Czech Republic. It explains the reason of the implementetion of this scheme in the CR, implementation challanges and how the CNB dealt with these challanges. A large part of the thesis analyses the deviations from the inflation target. The summarizes the advantages and disadvatages that the monetary policy regime introduced. And then it contains the overall assessment of the success of inflation targeting in the Czech Republic.
