Hong Kong: economic expansion during 1945-1965
Oravec, Radovan ; Skřivan, Aleš (advisor) ; Szobi, Pavel (referee)
Hong Kong is one of the most interesting and most dynamic economies in global scope. Country, which at 19. century began development as a small British trading colony has changed into economic superpower during few years. Hong Kong reached it despite hostile conditions -- absence of minerals, dense population, hostile neighboring countries or great distance of potencial trading partners. I will focus on the period after Second World War until 1965, the period of essential economic growth. I will mainly explore the reasons of these positive stimuls, relationship with China, principles of banking system, stock exchange and position of Hong Kong as a financial centre in international scope. All will be clarified by real economic indicators as tables and graphs, which I will analyse and deduce rules of successful economic development, which should be in general inspirative for developing economies.
