Non-interest income management of banks in a global low interest rate environment
Bečvaříková, Vendula ; Teplý, Petr (advisor) ; Džmuráňová, Hana (referee)
The significant change of the banking business models is easily observable in the current banking industry. Banks are forced to find additional source of income besides the one from traditional activities and thus the non-interest income is growing in importance. One of the reasons behind is that the banks need to recover from severe impacts of financial crisis in 2008-2010 and they want to adapt to the environment of low interest rates which has been occurring in the market since 2011. In this thesis, we analyze the presence of direct effect of non-interest income (proxied by fee income) on banks' performance using data of 220 commercial and investment banks from U.S. and EU-28 countries over the period of 2007-2014. Using System Generalized Methods of Moment, the direct effect was not detected. However, we conclude that economy with low inflation rate and growing gross domestic product improves the banks' profitability, as well as high capitalization and operating and credit quality efficiency. Furthermore, we found out that the volatility of the non-interest income has increased earlier than the crisis in 2008-2010 and it has been achieving almost continuous level till 2011 when it started decreasing again. Thus the hypothesis about relationship between volatility and financial crisis was rejected.

Consolidation of the banking sector in the Czech Republic and the impact on performance of banks
Rod, Aleš ; Kadeřábková, Božena (advisor) ; Musílek, Petr (referee) ; Mejstřík, Michal (referee)
The dissertation thesis analyzes reasons for the consolidation of the banking sector in the Czech Republic, the shape of the consolidation and impact of the consolidation institution's activities on the performance of the Czech banking sector. The first part of the research deals with the reasons for consolidation, i.e. specificities of the banking sector in the Czechoslovakia before 1989 and the transformation of the banking sector during the 1990s. The factors analyzed significantly influenced the processes of disintermediation, universalization and diversification in commercial banking. The analysis of banking profitability measures, which is the second part of my dissertation thesis, employs those aspects mentioned above. The thesis concludes there was an objective necessity to consolidate the banking sector after 1990. However, the consolidation process had been influenced by both a deficient institutional environment and inflation of goals set for consolidation institutions. This generated inefficiencies related to the activities of consolidation institutions (e.g. the management of receivables and rent-seeking) and also influenced the income and profit performance measures of the banking sector in the Czech Republic.
