Černohorský, Vojtěch ; Rotschedl, Jiří (advisor) ; Mirvald, Michal (referee)
This paper examines the relationship between the gold price and quantity demanded of the commodity in the European market. The aim of the thesis was to estimate the price elasticity of demand for gold in the short and long term and identify its determinants on the European market using OLS. Both static and dynamic forms of model are used and tested. This paper uses extensive dataset in form of monthly time series and in form of quarterly time series for the period from October 1996 to December 2013, and for the period from first quarter of 1991 to first quarter of 2002 respectively. According to the models the price elasticity of demand for gold seems to be elastic.

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.
