Economic Research Bulletin (2014, No.1). Volume 12, Number 1, April 2014, Stress-Testing Analyses of the Czech Financial System
Česká národní banka
This edition of the Research Bulletin presents four articles that introduce the modelling framework of the various stress tests used regularly by the Czech National Bank. The first article focuses on the methodology of the current stress tests employed to assess the stability of the banking sector. It explains the links between the core and satellite models and how various adverse scenarios are generated to test the stability of the Czech banking sector. It also provides guidelines on how stresstest parameters should be calibrated. Concerns about liquidity played an enormous role in the recent financial crisis, and the second article therefore focuses specifically on the liquidity risk of the banking sector. It presents a well-defined methodology used also by other central banks, but tailors it to the specific conditions of the Czech banking sector. The third article presents a recently developed methodology for assessing the ability of Czech households to pay their debts. Using detailed household-level data, it quantifies how different adverse events, such as unemployment and higher interest rates on debt repayment, affect households’ incidence of becoming financially distressed. The fourth article introduces stress-test models for the insurance sector. It discusses the specificities of the stress tests developed for this sector. It also sets out how to extend these already advanced tests to align them with changes going on in the regulatory framework.

Environmentální a hospodářské efekty ekonomických nástrojů ochrany ŽP
Univerzita Karlova v Praze, Centrum pro otázky životního prostředí ; IREAS, Institut pro strukturální politiku, o.p.s., Praha ; Urban, Jan ; Ščasný, Milan ; Slavík, Jan ; Pavel, Jan ; Nevečeřalová, Iva ; Foltýnová, hana ; Brůha, Jan ; Jílková, Jiřina
Řešení projektu je rozděleno do čtyř hlavních částí (modulů). V prvním je provedena kategorizace nástrojů na ochranu životního prostředí a rešerše právních a jiných dokumentů mezinárodních organizací (ES, OECD), které se efektivností tržních nástrojů zabývají. Další část se soustřeďuje na domácnosti. Po teoretickém úvodu, kde jsou diskutovány přístupy k identifikaci faktorů, které ovlivňují spotřební chování domácností, jsou s pomocí ekonometrických metod odhadovány elasticity jednotlivých typů spotřebního zboží. Třetí část je zaměřena na kvantifikaci negativních externalit a je založena na metodice ExternE. Závěrečná čtvrtá část efektivnost tržních nástrojů poplatkového/daňového typu analyzuje z poněkud netradičního úhlu - z pohledu jejich administrativní náročnosti.
