The aim of this diploma work was to analyze a selected segment of the stock exchange market using the theory of market efficiency and the methods of technical and fundamental analysis, to form an optimal investment strategy on the basis of the findings. The American stock exchange market was analyzed. Six different segments of the capital market were selected ? gold, oil and gas pipelines, steel and iron, car parts, food and telecommunication services. Each segment was represented by eight companies. The general characteristics of the companies were compared according to their profits, degree of risk, alpha and beta coefficients. Fundamental analysis was used to monitor the correlation between future profits for 2012 and alpha coefficients for the period 2007 ? 2011. The theory was proven ? at low levels of future profits, high levels of alpha coefficients were measured and vice versa - at high levels of future profits, low levels of alpha coefficients were measured. During efficiency tests, runs tests and correlation tests were monitored. During runs tests, the number of turns of a real file was compared with the number of runs of a simulated file; no distinctive variances were identified in the monitored stock titles. Forms of market efficiency were proven during the correlation tests and runs tests. The methods of technical analysis used were sliding averages, RSI indicators and Momentum. Trading on the basis of technical analysis is not completely possible because we did not succeed in finding an existing optimal strategy. If an optimal strategy works out it is regardless of the segment?s characteristics. I recommend a passive strategy with regards to the fundamental analysis.

Social value incorporates economic, environmental, and social impact in public policy decision- making. Social Return on Investment (SROI) has emerged as a popular way to measure social value. SROI is a tool for nonprofit organizations and social enterprises to measure their impact and express it in a common economic unit. This study employed a systematic review approach to assess the quality of SROI reports in the advocacy and human rights sector. The goal of this study was to determine whether SROI can measure the broader social effects of a program. Findings indicate that SROI has been used primarily by health and social services and significantly less often by advocacy and human rights groups. As such, the methodology has not yet been robustly applied to study very broad social effects associated with advocacy and human rights interventions. The social outcomes are usually captured qualitatively and not often quantitatively. Further, the social outcomes are rarely monetized due to a lack of financial proxies. SROI would benefit from being applied to a robust advocacy or human rights program, specifically focusing on broad social effects.

В настоящее время одним из основных факторов развития предприятия и сохранения (или же улучшения) позиций на рынке является его конкурентоспособность. Важно определить, в какое направление деятельности предприятия целесообразно инвестировать, определить предполагаемый результат инвестиционной деятельности, оказывающий влияние на показатели развития предприятия. Целью магистерской диссертации является выявление влияния инвестиционной деятельности на развитие предприятия. В качестве источников информации использовались учебно-методическая и научно-исследовательская литература, нормативно-правовые акты и данные о деятельности рассматриваемых предприятий. В ходе написания магистерской диссертации был разработан и апробирован алгоритм предпроектного анализа инвестиционной деятельности предприятия. Разработанный алгоритм предпроектного анализа содержит ряд последовательно выполняемых операций, которые позволяют всесторонне оценить деятельность предприятия, влияющих на неё факторов, и в результате правильно определить направление инвестиционной деятельности предприятия. В результате апробации разработанного алгоритма были предложены практические рекомендации для выбора направления инвестирования предприятия, нацеленного на развитие предприятия. / Currently, one of the main factors for the development of an enterprise and the preservation (or improvement) of its position in the market is its competitiveness. It is important to determine in which direction of the enterprise it is advisable to invest, to determine the expected result of the investment activity, which influences the indicators of the development of the enterprise. The purpose of the master's thesis is to identify the impact of investment activities on the development of the enterprise. The sources of information were educational materials and research literature, normative legal acts and data on the activities of the enterprises in question. In the course of writing the master's thesis, an algorithm for pre-project analysis of the enterprise’s investment activity was developed and tested. The developed algorithm of the pre-project analysis contains a number of sequentially performed operations that allow a comprehensive assessment of the activities of the enterprise, factors affecting it, and as a result correctly determine the direction of the investment activity of the enterprise. As a result of approbation of the developed algorithm, practical recommendations were proposed for choosing the direction of investment of an enterprise aimed at the development of an enterprise.
