Legal and Economic Aspects of Foreign Direct Investment with Reference to Taiwan
Jindra, Marek ; Bažantová, Ilona (advisor) ; Dupáková, Lenka (referee)
Název diplomové práce v anglickém jazyce, abstrakt v anglickém jazyce a 3 klíčová slova v anglickém jazyce Title: Legal and Economic Aspects of Foreign Direct Investment with Reference to Taiwan Abstract: The thesis on "Legal and Economic Aspects of Foreign Direct Investment with Reference to Taiwan" consists of two main parts, which are divided into eight chapters. The thesis uses the methods of secondary source analysis, synthesis, and comparison. The thesis is mainly based on domestic and foreign literature, foreign legislation, documents and data of international organizations published on their websites, academic articles, textbooks, and economic studies. The first part of the thesis deals with the general issue of foreign direct investment in four chapters, both from the legal and economic points of view. The thesis introduces the reader to the definitions of investment and investor, the nature and meaning of investment, the standards of treatment of investment, and, last but not least, its legal regulation. This section aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the various aspects of foreign direct investment protection, which will provide a well-rounded insight into the subject. In the second practically oriented part, the thesis analyses foreign direct investment in Taiwan. In particular, it...

Eye evolution and development: an insight from jellyfish and mouse
Růžičková, Jana ; Kozmik, Zbyněk (advisor) ; Jindra, Marek (referee) ; Markoš, Anton (referee)
I. AIMS OF THE STUDY Vision is one of the most crucial senses in higher vertebrates and perhaps the most important sense for humans. The eye morphogenesis has been studied for a long time and especially in the last two decades to address the function of individual genes duing eye development became one of the most interesting topic. Although most of our knowledge about the genetic program underlying eye formation comes from vertebrates, valuable new information about eye evolution has recently been obtained by studies of cnidaria. Therefore elucidation of the biological role and function of eye components of jellyfish Tripedalia cystophora will enhance our knowledge of specific aspects of both eye evolution and development. Specific aims of my PhD thesis were as follows: 1. to describe a new crystallin gene in jellyfish Tripedalia cystophora with respect to the evolution of its regulatory sequences; 2. to characterize genes required for the assembly of camera-type eyes in jellyfish Tripedalia cystophora; 3. to study the role of Wnt/β-catenin during lens induction and formation by employing a new mouse tissue-specific Cre-line; 4. to investigate the functional properties of jellyfish PaxB by expressing it in the developing lens and retina of transgenic mice. 6

Regulation of gene expression at posttranscriptional levels.
Kollárová, Johana ; Kostrouch, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Macůrková, Marie (referee) ; Jindra, Marek (referee)
Regulation of gene expression in response to cellular and organismal needs is essential for sustaining organisms' survival and successful competition in the evolution of life forms. This regulation is executed at multiple levels starting with regulation of gene transcription, followed by regulation at multiple posttranscriptional levels. In this thesis, I focused on posttranscriptional mechanisms that contribute to gene expression regulation in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans which enables powerful genetic and genomic techniques and allows the visualization of experimental genetic manipulations in toto, on the level of the complete organism during its life span. For this, we analysed the function of the orthologue of mammalian transcriptional corepressor NCOR, GEI-8. We used a functionally defective mutant gei-8(ok1671). I analysed the whole genome expression of homozygous gei- 8(ok1671) mutant and its link with observed mutant phenotype that includes defective gonad development and sterility and performed experiments leading to the proposition that disbalances in 21-U RNAs of piRNA class present in the most derepressed gene, the predicted mitochondrial sulfide:quinine reductase encoded by Y9C9A.16, are associated with the gonadal phenotype. In the second part of the thesis, I focused on...

The dynamics of the energy sector beta coefficient
Šimečková, Martina ; Frýd, Lukáš (advisor) ; Jindra, Marek (referee)
This bachelor thesis investigates the presence of asymmetric reactions in systemic risk and its development over time. The estimation is done utilising three DCC family models and the OLS model. The asymmetric reactions were found to be significant in both, the volatility of energy companies based portfolio returns and the correlation between this portfolio and a market portfolio. Due to the statistical significance of all resulting parameters of each model, we have also succeeded in confirming that energy sector's beta is time varying. By testing the estimation of each beta coefficient alone, we have come to the conclusion that a statistically significant difference arises only when utilising an asymmetric volatility model.

Itemized valuation of the econonomic balance sheet
Jindra, Marek ; Mařík, Miloš (advisor) ; Marek, Petr (referee) ; Severa, Vladislav (referee)
The dissertation thesis deals with valuation of individual items in the economic balance sheet of a stand-alone company and subsequently as a part of acquisition. We define the economic balance sheet as a full set of assets, liabilities as well as synergies amongst the assets (stand-alone company view) and companies (transaction view), where the sum of their individual valuations has to equal to the overall value of the company. Hence we suggest that the management (and a valuer) should be able to decompose the company value into defined and controllable value components. Apart from identifying optimal methods for the individual valuation, the key for achieving this task is the internal (amongst the assets) as well as the overall consistency (vis-a-vis the overall company value). Compared to the overall-valuation approach, we demonstrate how the component approach can lead to more precise results, higher management discipline and accountability, and can serve as a tool for an a priori identification of overpayment as well as an instrument for controlling the value post transaction. We defined two primary types of synergies in terms of valuation approach - Enhancement, improving current income potential and Future opportunities, mainly focusing on new projects - and proposed appropriate valuation approaches given their specifics. Since a large proportion of valuations on individual level is based on the income approach, setting a clear and consistent approach to discount rates was a vital part of the work. We propose a primary and, if not available, second-best rate for each component of the economic balance sheet. Although the synergies are probably of the highest commercial interest, the liabilities with external source of risk and deferred taxes on the individual level are areas generally neglected both by academics and practitioners. While the first one will have only but crucial impact on companies with decommissioning and similar liabilities, the latter is present almost in any itemized valuation, and its incorrect or purely isolated application affects the overall result and breaks the link to the overall company value. We analyze both topics and offer consistent valuation methods, although further research is required to refine them. We discuss WARA as one of the key tools for ensuring consistency of itemized valuation of the economic balance sheet. Lacking any theoretical background and interest from academic researchers, we first analyze simple concepts of the tool as they are used in practice and point out observed conceptual errors, oversimplifications and accounting-only approach. Not only that we propose complex consistent rules for WARA construction but we extend the concept from the focus on conventionally defined net assets to the full economic balance sheet, which is the only way how to relate the itemized valuation to the overall company valuation. Finally, we presented a case study based on real-life example which demonstrated practical applicability of proposed partial solutions as well as the overall approach to achieving consistency with the total company or transaction valuation. Although the analysis of individual items of the economic balance will be inevitably based on subjective assumptions to an extent, we have shown that proposed complex and consistent approach adds value to the strategic and transaction considerations. Also the preciseness of the tools will increase with the number of transactions performed as the parameters get calibrated.
