Cover promissory note / Cover bill of exchange
Mařík, Jakub ; Patěk, Daniel (advisor) ; Čech, Petr (referee)
Cover promissory note / Cover bill of exchange Abstract The diploma thesis focuses on the topic of a cover promissory note (also meant cover bill of exchange), currently referred to as a secured promissory note in practice and jurisprudence. The aim of the thesis is to provide a qualified answer to the question of whether the cover promissory note is of a secured nature or whether it is a consolidation instrument. This raises the further question of whether it is justified to call this instrument a secured promissory note. To achieve the aim of the thesis, the sub-features of the cover promissory note are analysed, which provide the basis for a qualified answer to the research question. The thesis is divided into eight chapters. A brief historical introduction in the first chapter serves to clarify the promissory note context. A significant contribution of this thesis is a comparison of the treatment of the domestic cover promissory note with the Anglo-Saxon cover promissory note, including an explanation of the differences in the acquisition of the promissory note. For background, the second chapter introduces the general promissory note concepts of the Anglo-Saxon promissory note law. The law of the cover promissory note is a combination of the law of bills of exchange and the contract law. The...

Bills of exchange as a hedge fund
Čejka, Radek ; Čech, Petr (advisor) ; Liška, Petr (referee)
Bills of exchange as a hedge fund Abstract In the past, a bill of exchange was linked to a payment instrument. It is not only the first ever security but also the predecessor of paper money. In the course of economic-sociological development, it was found that the promissory note could also serve as a hedging instrument within the framework of a contractual legal relationship. By gradually evolving, this hedging function became dominant and de facto displaced the bill of exchange function as a means of payment. Although the payment function has not explicitly disappeared, it is currently less used and the promissory note is dominated by the promissory note. Mostly, the notion of a promissory note is linked to its hedging function between the general public and the professional public. This thesis is divided into twelve chapters. In the first chapter I describe what a promissory note is and that it is a security. The second chapter is devoted to the description of bills of exchange in terms of their historical development, where the bill of exchange apparently originated, and mainly, why it was created and who used it. In the third chapter I describe the basic distribution of bills of exchange and the fact that the bill of exchange serves as a means of payment, as a payment instrument, or as a security...

Chlpeková, Veronika ; Zahradníčková, Marie (advisor) ; Patěk, Daniel (referee)
in English Securities with a focus of bills of exchange and promissory notes as important tools in business obligations The institute of securities accompanies the society for many centuries and has become an indispensable part of economic life. Although, with few exceptions represented apparently only by Slovak and Swiss legal order, there is no general definition of concept of security, it does not hinder to define its characteristics, which are the instrument, respectively any material substrate able to capture a written declaration of will and incorporated subjective property right originating in the private area. Of the above may be deduced the close connection between right and document, which is it's materialization. In connection with the development of social needs, especially in the area of trade, disadvantages of document that was originally considered as a necessary condition of the existence of a valid security, appeared. As a result, the process of dematerialisation of securities started and the document has been replaced by the entry in the register of securities. Nowadays, therefore, the securities may exist both in paper and in book entry form, what undoubtedly facilitate the implementation of some complicated business transactions. The presented thesis combines the interpretation...
