Vašková, Petra ; Urbánek, Jiří (referee) ; Sodomka, Petr (referee) ; Stehlík, Antonín (referee) ; Jurová, Marie (advisor)
This dissertation work is focused on issues related to a purchasing process in business subjects. It examines issues related to an evaluation of suppliers for a particular order. It also deals with issues within supplier-purchaser relationship, its creation and management through the SCM - Supply Chain Management. The topic of this thesis is very progressive as the selection and the evaluation of the suppliers is a very important factor in the terms of purchase and purchase expenses. A good management of the supplier-purchaser relationship can save expenses to business subjects. The elaboration of this dissertation thesis used not just theoretical findings acquired from the Czech and international literature, but also findings from surveys. The primary survey was carried out through the quantitative research, in particular research questionnaires. The findings from the primary survey were evaluated through the application Microsoft Excel and UNISTAT ® Statistical Package Version 5.6.06 Light. The acquired results were used to define the most important factors, which affect an evaluation of suppliers as well as an evaluation of the SCM in companies and data about purchases in companies. In addition the findings from the research questionnaires helped to evaluate the appointed hypothesis of the dissertation thesis. A partial outcome of the dissertation thesis is the proposal of the methodology of the evaluation of new and current suppliers including the weighting of individual evaluation parameters. For a common suppliers’ evaluation, an evaluation frequency is set by the importance of supplied material. Additionally, it methodologically describes how to evaluate supplier in time for day-to-day supply and for one-off supply. An additional partial outcome is the proposal of the methodology for an evaluation of a level of the SCM. The conclusion of the dissertation thesis is dedicated to the summary of findings, discussion of preconditions for implementation of the proposed methodology to real situations and possibilities of an additional scientist work in appropriately related subjects.

Growing power of developing countries and its influence on decision-making in the World Bank
Halamka, Radek ; Parízek, Michal (advisor) ; Kučerová, Irah (referee)
World Bank had worked under nearly the same structure and the same distribution of voting weights since its establishment. The settings reflecting the post-war situation has been criticized more and more lately as not corresponding with the present circumstances. Ineffectiveness, irrelevance and illegitimacy were enumerated as main deficiencies. Voice Reform, which was conducted in 2008 and 2010, should have brought a solution to the problems by more involvement of developing countries in decision-making in the World Bank. This thesis studies the approved changes in voting weights using power indices and analysis of financial flows. The results of both the approaches show that the revolutionary ethos remained in the Reform text and no large changes would likely happen. The only exception may be an increase of China, however, the United States would maintain its dominant position.

Bankruptcy, Investment, and Financial Constraints: Evidence from a Post-Transition Economy
Pospíšil, Martin ; Swarz, Jiří
In this paper we use balance-sheet data and information on bankruptcy to study the relationship between investment, financial constraints, and bankruptcy in a post-transition country. Our data constitute a dynamic panel and cover the period 2006–2011, which also allows us to study the impact of the 2008 crisis on Czech companies. Using investment–cash flow sensitivity to analyze financial constraints we find there is robust evidence that cash flow and the level of debt have a positive and significant impact on the investment rate. By taking a closer look at individual subsamples we reveal that the existence of financial constraints, proxied by investment–cash flow sensitivity, is evident mainly after 2008 and in small and medium-sized enterprises. At the same time, we do not uncover any evidence that firms going bankrupt during our observed period faced more severe financial constraints. Moreover, companies going bankrupt had significantly higher levels of external debt and bank loans, which indicates that they may have been, in fact, less constrained than others.
