Uhlířová, Klára ; Loužek, Marek (advisor) ; Šlajs, Jan (referee)
The topic of the thesis is to analyze the debt of Czech households from 1993 to 2012. The main goal is to map the development of indebtedness of Czech households in these years and to discuss the reasons of increasing Czech households debt mainly including drop in inflation and interest rates, the desire of the population for their own living and the tendency towards the consumer life despite the decrease in growth of indebtedness of households till 2009. The thesis tries to answer the question whether Czech households are over indebted and whether they are threatened by falling into a debt trap. Although the increments of debt were considerable in the recent years, in the international comparison the indebtedness of Czech households is very low and the fall to a debt trap is not actual because the majority of loans are used for purchase of real estate. The risk is represented by substantial growth of interest rates, prices of real estate and increase in the unemployment rate together with low economic performance. In conclusion, the thesis tries to formulate the disposal against over indebtedness. As one of the most effective implement is considered the increase in financial literacy of wider population and the change of social atmosphere in which the debt was perceived least risky.

Eurozone crisis and its parallel with japanese lost decade
Draisaitl, Michael ; Loužek, Marek (advisor) ; Titze, Miroslav (referee)
The thesis analyses problems of eurozone after the beginning of financial crisis in 2008, which continuously changed into economic and debt crisis. The thesis considers eurozone in aggregate and closer focuses on so called GIIPS (Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain) countries. Recent eurozone economic situation is compared to Japanese "lost decade" during 1990s, I seek for parallels and differences. Theoretical part shows approaches by economic schools to causes of cycle and to role of policymakers. Main challenges of fiscal and monetary policy are considered, specifically fiscal policy in time of high public indebtedness, monetary policy in liquidity trap etc. Applicative part considers causes of the economic situation at the beginning, more specifically devoted to balance sheets recession. Key part of the practical part it is analysis of applied fiscal and monetary policy, including helping efforts to financial system. Concluding remarks summarizes key understanding from the thesis, proposals are included and it is considered whether eurozone is going to follow Japanese path since 90's or not. It seems highly probable that eurozone is going to follow Japanese in terms of sluggish economic growth, parallels can be seen in weak impact of monetary policy in liquidity trap, but recommendations to fiscal policy from Japanese experience should be taken into account in very cautious way because of both specifics of eurozone and Japanese economy.

Responsible budgeting in selected countries: Study 2.094
Cupalová, Marcela
Práce se zaměřuje na úpravu odpovědného rozpočtování v jednotlivých zemích Commonwealthu a v Latinské Americe, kde tyto zákony byly přijaty. Zatímco v anglosaských zemích (zejména v USA) mají tyto zákony poměrně dlouhou tradici, v Latinské Americe byly obvykle přijímány spíše v nedávné době, a to většinou v souvislosti s problémy veřejných rozpočtů. Po analýze a komparaci úpravy odpovědného rozpočtování v jednotlivých zemích dochází práce k závěru, že latinskoamerické zákony jsou obvykle podrobnější, konkrétněji specifikují cíle a povinnosti vlády a většinou zahrnují i zřízení a financování určitého „stabilizačního“ fondu, jehož prostředky mají pomáhat v době ekonomického poklesu. Z analýzy dále vyplynulo, že ve federacích je odpovědné rozpočtování na federální úrovni upraveno obvykle spíše v obecné rovině, popř. federální legislativa upravuje především transparentnost informování o stanovených cílech a jejich plnění vládami. Konkrétnější úprava je pak ponechána v rukou jednotlivých států federace. Některé federace byly ovšem nuceny přistoupit k podrobnější federální úpravě, aby deficity jednotlivých států federace příliš nezatěžovaly centrální rozpočet. Obecně platí, že zákony o odpovědném rozpočtování obvykle stanoví určité cíle a limity, které musí exekutiva plnit, a pokud je v daném roce neplní, musí to napravit v letech následujících. Rozpočtová omezení mohou postihovat celou zemi, sankce typu ztráty části mzdy nebo zákazu výkonu politické funkce obvykle postihují konkrétně osobu (ministra, guvernéra), která svůj úřad zadlužila. Kromě analýzy přijaté legislativní úpravy práce také hodnotí efektivnost přijatých opatření, a to jednak na základě odborných studií, jednak podle empirických výsledků snižování veřejného zadlužení.

Nedvědová, Nikola ; Schönfeld, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Smrčka, Luboš (referee)
This thesis deals with takeovers in the Czech environment according to the Insolvency Act No. 182/2006 Coll., which passed an amendment to the 1. 1. 2008. There are methods of resolving insolvency of the debtor and principles of insolvency proceedings which should be followed during the insolvency process. Work distinguishes friendly and hostile takeover. The theoretical part provides an overview of possible ways of takeover, the reasons that motivate new owners to think about a possible takeover and globally applicable defense strategies. Another theoretical starting point is consideration of the reorganization of the company, which may be conducted by both the debtor and of the creditor(s). The practical part describes the hostile takeover of SAZKA from its history, through description of the key moments of crisis to insolvency proceedings which resulted in the bankruptcy of the debtor. Subsequent hostile takeover was directed by PPF and KKCG, which bought up commitment wagers and therefore became important creditors (controlling the betting and lottery activities) and later winner of the tender for the sale of the entire company. This case is a textbook example of takeover of the company, which had fallen into financial distress. The battle for the largest lottery company in the country was very hard, long and eventually resulted in a very profitable business, which fell into the arms of a single owner.
