Večerek, Petr ; Marek, Petr (advisor) ; Makovec, Martin (referee)
The content of this thesis is the processing and evaluation of asset utilization ratios of individual components of assets by indicators of total assets turnover, fixed assets turnover, current assets turnover, inventory turnover, accounts receivable turover, creditors turnover and trade deficit. Thesis concerns industry companies from the European Union. Data are from 2006. The values were analyzed separately for all indicators, but with an accent on the greatest complexity. High values of turnover were mostly found in Germany, Ireland and the Nordic countries. Conversely, low values are in all the southern countries and Lithuania. Among the sectors with smallest turnovers are B "Fishing and fish farming" and E "Electricity, gas and water supply". The highest values of turnover were often calculated in sectors DA "Manufacture of food products, beverages and tobacco" and DF "Manufacture of coke, refined petroleum products and nuclear fuel". The values of Czech republic varied just slightly above average, but in the vast majority of indicators.

Marketing aspects of consumer price perception
Tsiligiannis, Georgios ; Karlíček, Miroslav (advisor) ; Král, Petr (referee)
This thesis focuses on two theoretical approaches from the marketing literature: first, the degree to which consumers tend to associate a higher product price with a higher quality (price-perceived quality relationship) and second, the assumption that odd prices (prices set just below the nearest round figure) generate higher than expected demand at that level. The thesis concludes that there seems to exist an overall positive weak correlation between product price and perceived quality, which is also product/market specific, and that the effects of odd pricing on demand have been mixed and inconclusive. Important managerial implications arise from these conclusions. On the same grounds, an empirical study examines the relation between product price and actual product quality and shows that the relation is actually very weak for products falling into the category of electronics. Lastly, a second empirical study shows that odd prices prevail in the retail sector of the Czech Republic.

The transfer of hospitals into the stock companies
Jičínská, Aneta ; Písař, Pavel (advisor) ; Vebrová, Ludmila (referee)
This work deals with the transfer of the hospitals into the stock companies. These used to be under the state control, they have been regulated, but nowadays they are in the process to become the stock companies owned by the private or public sector. From this point, we can see the regulation was not effective and that is why they are beeing transferred into the private ownership. At the beginning of my work, there is described the state regulation and the changes which had happened after their transfer into the private companies. Furthermore, I deal with the issue of why this change has happened. In the following part I demonstrate the transfer into the stock company in the particular case of Pardubice regional hospital. In the final part of my work there is the evaluation whether the change was for better or not; if it was economically more advantageous to regulate the state hospitals or to transfer them into the private ownership.

Analýza bankovního sektoru ve vybraných zemích východní Evropy
Křížek, Tomáš ; Dvořák, Petr (advisor) ; Janda, Karel (referee)
The thesis analyzes the banking sectors in selected countries of CEE region, in particular in Albania, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina and compares their development with the Czech Republic as it is CEE country with one of the most advanced banking sectors in the region. Three parts of the paper analyzing separately each of the countries are supplemented by country comparison and final conclusions. General development, development of banking sector as well as banking market and financial performance of banks are examined. As a conclusion, all the countries develop in a different way and with different starting conditions. Albania relies more on qualitative development with low absolute figures but high relative indicators with respect to the utilization of available resources. The development in Serbia is rather quantitative, in contrary to the situation in Albania. Bosnia and Herzegovina is progressing quite ambiguously also due to uncertain political situation in the country. It can be also concluded that all the three countries still have to go a long way to reach comparable level of their banking systems with the Czech Republic.

Vašák, Viktor ; Khendriche Trhlínová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Kouřilová, Jana (referee)
As the time goes by, one former Czech-Slovak territory has separated, forming two independent republics and members of European union. Division of common territory by a border, however, cannot affect cultural and linguistic proximity, which can be clearly identified in cross-border regions. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the cooperation amongst six regions located near mutual border during 2007-2013 period. By the means of publicly available content, an analysis of allocation of financial resources from ERDF and national budgets is executed. The qualitative evaluation of cross-border cooperation projects is delivered by the proposal of matrix for territorial impact assessment. According to percentual fulfillment of given goals, impact on barrier effect reduction and selected projects analysis, the overall added value of cross-border cooperation between Czech and Slovak republic during 2007-2013 period is specified. Main findings are then a result of combination of qualitative analysis and quantitative indicators for the researched period.

Central Bank Monitoring - December 2016
Česká národní banka
Most of the central banks under review are maintaining their interest rates at the current low level or considering a further monetary policy easing. For example, Norges Bank is considering lowering its key rate and the Riksbank increasing the volume of purchased bonds. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand has lowered the key rate further. The ECB left interest rates unchanged in the previous period but extended its bond purchase programme and adjusted its parameters. On the other hand, the global economy is watching anxiously whether the Fed’s interest rates increase as expected at the close of this year. Spotlight addresses the effect of climate change on the financial sector, including central bank policies. In our Selected speech, member of the Executive Board of the Deutsche Bundesbank Andreas Dombret focuses on the perspectives of business models of commercial banks.

Introduction of Smart Metering: Ramifications for Business Management in Medium-sized Energy Providers
Selmke, Pierre ; Heřman, Jan (advisor) ; Neumaierová, Inka (referee) ; Markovič, Peter (referee)
In the European Union (EU), increasing final energy efficiency, so as to save energy, has become mandatory. This obligation will fundamentally alter the EU energy sector. The relevant EU directive, 2006/32/EG, requires that adjustments be made to energy billing and, where technically feasible, that new metering technologies (i.e. smart metering) be introduced. Individual EU countries are implementing these requirements in different ways: Smart metering is either being nearly fully implemented (e.g. in Italy), is being planned (e.g. in Germany), or completely disregarded (e.g. in the Czech Republic). Since the introduction of smart metering affects virtually all value-added steps, organisational structures and areas of operation in medium-sized energy providers, these providers must take the relevant requirements into account at as early a stage as possible. The present thesis analyses the effects of the introduction of smart metering on the business management of such companies. A deductive method was chosen and the effects of intro- ducing smart metering were assessed through a cross-sectional study of two separate data collections. Experts were interviewed and their statements were qualitatively evaluated. A written survey followed via online questionnaires, the results of which were quantitatively evaluated. Institutional, functional and activity-based perspectives were considered as well as normative, strategic and operative aspects of business management. The evaluation of the survey enabled a better assessment and analysis of the introduction of smart metering. An analysis of the scope of the upcoming alterations within energy providers illustrates just how fundamental a change this will bring to medium-sized energy providers. However, the outcome of the written survey shows that most executives do not recognise this need for change and therefore are unable to initiate it. These management deficiencies threaten the very existence of these companies and must be resolved through the timely initiation of consistent change management.
