Lekishvili, Salome ; Mandel, Martin (advisor) ; Tran, Van Quang (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the issue of financial performance of central banks. Central banking is generally considered as a profitable part of financial system. However, this paper focuses on the loss-making central banks and emphasizes the examples of central banks with large accumulated financial losses. Relationship between the quality of balance sheet assets and financial performance of central banks is closely examined in the thesis. Alongside, it analyses the impact of negative financial performance on the main objectives of central bank, in the role of monetary authority. Effectiveness of monetary policy is conditioned by many factors, among them are independence of central bank, the level of development of financial markets - central bank operates in, analytical skills of employees and etc. However, the case, where financial performance of central bank is discussed in connection with monetary policy performance, is extremely rare. The primary goal of this diploma thesis is to reveal and describe the main ways in which financial performance of the central bank influences monetary policy decisions. It also tries to find out whether there is hidden threat of a damaging impact on the decisions in case the central bank accumulates the negative financial results.

Táto diplomová práca si kladie za cieľ čo najlepšie objasniť problematiku zodpovednosti zamestnávateľa s dôrazom na zodpovednosť za škody vzniknuté pri pracovných úrazoch a chorobách z povolania; a bližšie sa zamerať na vysvetlenie pojmov súvisiacich so zákonným poistením, na prebiehajúce zmeny v zákonnom, úrazovom poistení, porovnať súčasnú a novoprijatú úpravu úrazového poistenia, výhody a nevýhody oboch systémov a v neposlednom rade objasniť čitateľovi zmeny, ktoré nový zákon o úrazovom poistení zamestnancov prinesie.

Curse or Blessing: natural resources and economic growth - comparison of the development of Botswana, Nigeria, Norway and Canada in early 21st century
Zubíková, Adéla ; Chytil, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Zeman, Karel (referee)
This thesis seeks to verify the concept of so-called resource curse at the beginning of the new millennium. The theoretical part defines the symptoms of the alleged curse, curse transmission channels and criticism of the concept. Compared to other studies dealing with the theme of the resource curse this work is not focused on just one transmission channel. The practical part verifies several hypotheses established by comparing research papers on impacts of natural resources. The validity of the Prebisch-Singer hypothesis, Dutch disease symptoms and a negative impact on political institutions (inclination toward authoritarianism, high level of corruption, high government spending, low efficiency of economic and political decision-making and low investment in education) is verified. For the analysis have been selected two African countries (Nigeria and Botswana) and two advanced countries (Canada and Norway). The last part of this thesis provides policy implications. The results confirm the Prebisch-Singer hypothesis for selected commodities in the long term and some of the symptoms of Dutch disease at the beginning of the new millennium. Hypotheses regarding the impact on the political institutions have not been confirmed, since the results varied across the countries. The high vulnerability of the countries to movements in commodity prices was found.

Hošková, Jana ; Kopřiva, Radek (advisor) ; Lenka, Lenka (referee)
The present dissertation is focused on the development of the party systems on the local level of political decision making with the aim to verify applicability of the party systems theory. The dissertation is divided into two parts - the theoretical bases and the thesis itself. The theoretical part deals with the definitions of the fundamental concepts, such as a political party, a municipality, municipal administration, the municipal election system, and last but not at least it is focused on the party systems and their applicability in practice. The practical part of the dissertation is approached as a case study dealing with the town of Nýrsko. It contains a short characterization of the basic demographic and socio-economic indicator of the municipality. The thesis searches for the main factors having an influence on the party system in the municipality of Nýrsko, it inquires about the political area for the consequent study of the political system, the extent of political participation, the political plurality and the inception of political parties. Then the applicability of the party system theory and the role of political parties in the local political area are researched.

Multiple-criteria Analysis in a Choice of an Employer
Růžek, Martin ; Kučera, Petr (advisor) ; Petr, Petr (referee)
This thesis deals with the issue of decision-making process in recruitment and selection of employees using methods of multi-criteria analysis options. The theoretical part of the thesis is focused on explaining the concepts of human resources and HR management. This area describes in detail the activities of selection process. Another area defines the basics of project management and project manager job. The third part deals with the theory of multi-criteria decision and the last area describes the process models. The practical part of the thesis uses the knowledge gained in the theoretical part for the real application to selection process. First, the company selected is introduced, especially its history, organizational structure and the current selection process. Then the current selection process is analysed and the results of analysis initiate the creation of a new process. For achieving the higher quality of results are included and applied methods of multi-criteria analysis of options and the questionnaire method in the new process. In conclusion, the achieved results are discussed with the manager and the current selection process is compared with a new selection process.

Economic impacts of development of graduate unemployment on the national economy of Czech Republic
Jirský, Aleš ; Urbánková, Erika (advisor) ; Jitka, Jitka (referee)
The presented thesis addresses the challenges associated with the development of graduate unemployment and its impact on the national economy. Graduates are taken as one of the vulnerable groups in the labor market. Their lack of work experience and low employee morale threatens their possible applicability in the labor market. The underlying data was taken from the Czech Statistical Office and the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, which were monitored over a time horizon of ten years. The observation was focused on development of total number of graduates, altogether with total number of vacancies intended for them I have analyzed the state's spending on national employment policy and structure. Furthermore, I examined the number of graduates in relation to the total number of graduates, who should show their adaptability in the labor market. Another outcome was to build an econometric model which I've confronted with economic theory obtained by studying the literature review. The resulting outputs confirmed 3 of 4 theoretical assumptions. The only prerequisite was not met and that the increased number of graduates did not significantly affect the overall unemployment rate.

Building credit scoring models using selected statistical methods in R
Jánoš, Andrej ; Bašta, Milan (advisor) ; Pecáková, Iva (referee)
Credit scoring is important and rapidly developing discipline. The aim of this thesis is to describe basic methods used for building and interpretation of the credit scoring models with an example of application of these methods for designing such models using statistical software R. This thesis is organized into five chapters. In chapter one, the term of credit scoring is explained with main examples of its application and motivation for studying this topic. In the next chapters, three in financial practice most often used methods for building credit scoring models are introduced. In chapter two, the most developed one, logistic regression is discussed. The main emphasis is put on the logistic regression model, which is characterized from a mathematical point of view and also various ways to assess the quality of the model are presented. The other two methods presented in this thesis are decision trees and Random forests, these methods are covered by chapters three and four. An important part of this thesis is a detailed application of the described models to a specific data set Default using the R program. The final fifth chapter is a practical demonstration of building credit scoring models, their diagnostics and subsequent evaluation of their applicability in practice using R. The appendices include used R code and also functions developed for testing of the final model and code used through the thesis. The key aspect of the work is to provide enough theoretical knowledge and practical skills for a reader to fully understand the mentioned models and to be able to apply them in practice.
