The diploma thesis has been written as an enlargement of my bachelor thesis. The fundament remained same - analysis of a company that operates in a international environment. As a added value above the bachelor thesis, I have worked on the changes that met the company since 2008 when I handed out the bachelor thesis. I have also solved the problems that the company must face to in current times and at the end I came up with proposals that could help the firm in those hard times.

Peter Cernik, Set of Problems connected with Unemployment and Alternative Solution at the Economic Crisis Time. Thesis, Faculty of Management University of Economics in Prague. Tutor Ing. Martin Musil, Jindřichův Hradec, 2010, 74 p. and 1 p. attachments. The thesis analyzes the economic crisis of 1929 and the similarity of the current economic crisis. Thesis will also focus on unemployment and living standards as a result of the economic crisis. The aim is to highlight the ineffectiveness of conventional solutions, which governments are doing and outline certain alternative solutions that might be effective in the long term. One such solution is the development of transport, because it is a major factor in job hunting , or the implementation of the business. The practical part of the thesis deals with a futuristic transport solution which would provide a much superior mobility of the workforce as we know it today. Effective functioning of such services would be more efficient to avoid the consequences of economic crises that await mankind in the future.

<p>This thesis is trying to find out whether the five studied countries, Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain would have avoided the economic crisis by having an independent central bank.The theory used for our study is the Taylor rule, using statistical data in order to count out the short-term nominal interest rate. Results are compared with the ECB nominal interest rate to see if the difference between the two rates is big. By looking at other macroeconomic data we will try to understand if the fiscal policy could have been conducted in a better way.The results we reached were varying. In the case of Ireland and Spain we could clearly see that a higher interest rate could have drastically altered the outcome, potentially avoiding the crisis. Regarding Italy and Portugal, the current crisis is more due to structural problems and not due to the level of the interest rate. Finally, we could see that Greece could have benefited from a higher interest rate. But we cannot definitely say that this has been the reason for the crisis since the Greek fiscal policy has been poorly conducted.</p>

Die sich zunächst um Griechenland rankende Krise wurde zu einer europäischen, die den Euro bedroht. Allenthalben wird die Frage gestellt: Wer ist schuld? In deutschen Groß-Medien wird auf das Zögern der derzeitigen Bundesregierung verwiesen. Der Euro rutschte in die Gefahrenzone. Aber ist der Verweis auf falsche Politik die Antwort auf die Frage nach dem erneuten Aufbrechen der Finanzkrise?

The purpose of this thesis was to from a Swedish perspective investigate the fantastic growth rates of Estonia and Latvia and why it became such a massive collapse when the world economy was slowing down. To build a theoretical foundation for the investigation several international macroeconomic theories such as the Mundell-Flemming model, the fundamental national income equilibrium, and international parity relations were used. The empirical section shows that Estonia and Latvia have based much of their growth on imports from their Baltic and especially their Nordic neighbours. At the same time they have been highly dependent on continuously growing Nordic stock markets and high risk appetite from investors to be able to keep the fabulous growth figures. The conclusions drawn are that it has been possible for Estonia and Latvia to grow at fast rates, by running large current accounts deficits, as long as the world was in a boom. But when the world economy is slowing down they are now forced into the very painful process of re-establishing a more balanced current account.

Since Mainland China opened its market, its strengths and low-cost labor appeals to foreign investors and manufacturers, resulting in rapid growth of overall economics. Several investment factors in Taiwan, including rising land price due to economic growth, rising costs of labor, and shortage of labor force, drive Taiwanese firms to base manufacturing plants in Mainland China because of its cheap labor and massive scale of labor force. The aim of this research is to investigate the way in which human resource department adjusts its strategy as a part of enterprise transformation from labor orientation to marketing orientation under the influences of China¡¦s policy of economic transformation. The case study in this research is an outstanding enterprise, having three oversea plants, in southern Taiwan. The analysis and research results are shown as follows. (1) The introduction of the Labor Contract Law of the People¡¦s Republic of China and the Social Insurance Law of the People¡¦s Republic of China brings more disadvantages than benefits to enterprises. The laws improve Chinese laborers¡¦ basic rights at the expense of increasing management risks and labor management costs from Taiwanese firms. (2) Under the influences of global economic crisis, policies to downsize organization structure lead to a loss of talents, but enterprises should enhance its education training, reinforce organizational culture and vision, and speeding up the process of localizing talents. (3) Propelling domestic demand is a policy to sustain economic growth; however, as farmers¡¦ income increases, it is more difficult for enterprises to recruit laborers. Enterprises should be cautious on designing long-term plans of human resources. (4) The Foxconn incident is not an individual case. It shows that an enterprise should provide material assurance as well as spiritual concerns to employees. The butterfly effect of pay raise will speed up enterprise transformation and reach the long-term goal of paralleling Chinese plants to global market. (5) It is crucial for enterprises to provide material assistance to expatriates as well as mental well-being of the employees and the families.

Η έντονη οικονομική κρίση που βιώνει η χώρα μας τα τελευταία τέσσερα χρόνια (2010 -2014), εκτός από τις δημοσιονομικού τύπου διαστάσεις της, επέφερε γενικότερες αλλαγές στην ελληνική κοινωνία. Δε θα ήταν υπερβολή να ισχυριστεί κανείς πως δεν υπάρχει πλευρά της κοινωνικής ζωής που δεν επηρεάστηκε. Όπως ήταν αναμενόμενο, μεταξύ όλων των άλλων, και η ελληνική εκπαίδευση δέχτηκε επιδράσεις ποικιλότροπα και εις βάθος από την εν λόγω κρίση σε όλες τις εκφάνσεις της (χρηματοδότηση, θεσμοί, διάρθρωση, εκπαιδευτικές πρακτικές και στάσεις, δημόσιος και ιδιωτικός της χαρακτήρας κλπ.) . Η παρούσα ερευνητική εργασία επιχειρεί να διερευνήσει τις επιρροές της οικονομικής κρίσης σε κάποια μόνο τμήματα της εκπαιδευτικής διαδικασίας. Συγκεκριμένα: Α) τις επιδράσεις της οικονομικής κρίσης στη χρηματοδότηση της Τυπικής Εκπαίδευσης από την Πολιτεία. Β) τις επιδράσεις της οικονομικής κρίσης στους θεσμούς που άπτονται της λειτουργίας της Τυπικής Εκπαίδευσης (νομοθετικές ρυθμίσεις που τα τελευταία τέσσερα χρόνια ψηφίστηκαν στο ελληνικό Κοινοβούλιο και αφορούν στην Τυπική Εκπαίδευση άμεσα ή έμμεσα καθώς και άλλες διαρθρωτικές αλλαγές). / The intensive economic crisis from which our country has been suffering for the last four years (2010-2014), has influenced the Greek society in many ways and not only in the financial level. It would not be an exaggeration to claim that there is not an aspect of social life which did not influenced from the crisis. As it was expected, the Greek education, among the others, was also deeply influenced of this crisis, in many ways, in all its aspects (financing, structure, educational practices and attitudes, public and private character etc.) This research paper attempts to investigate the influences of the economic crisis in only some parts of the educational process. Specific: a) the effects of the economic crisis in the state financing of formal education b) the effects of the economic crisis in the institutions related to the operation of formal education (lows that have been have been legislated in Greek parliament, the last four years, referring directly or indirectly to the Formal Education and other structural changes).

Η εργασία αυτή εξετάζει τη μεταβολή των επιχειρηματικών πιστώσεων από τις ελληνικές τράπεζες πριν και κατά τη διάρκεια της πρόσφατης οικονομικής κρίσης. Εντοπίζει πιστωτική συρρίκνωση από το 2009Μ9. Μελετά και αναλύει τις μεταβολές της επίδρασης ειδικών δανειακών χαρακτηριστικών στη διαμόρφωση του συνολικού επιτοκίου, τόσο για τις νέες χρηματοδοτήσεις όσο και τις υφιστάμενες. Όσον αφορά την παραγωγή νέων δανείων κατά τη διάρκεια της κρίσης, βρέθηκε οτι τα μεγάλα δάνεια τιμολογήθηκαν χαμηλότερα από τα μικρά. Τα οικονομετρικά αποτελέσματα έδειξαν τη μεγαλύτερη και θετική συνεισφορά των μικρών δανείων στον καθορισμό του επιτοκίου. Επιπλέον, βρέθηκε ότι η διαπραγματευτική δύναμη των μεγάλων δανειοληπτών, κατά τη διάρκεια της κρίσης, προκαλεί αρνητική επίδραση των μεγάλων δανείων στο συνολικό επιτόκιο. Τέλος, δείχνεται ότι το υφιστάμενο δανειακό χαρτοφυλάκιο μειώνεται σημαντικά η επίδραση των βραχυχρόνιων δανείων στο συνολικό επιτόκιο ενώ, αντίθετα, σχεδόν διπλασιάζεται η θετική επίδραση των μεσομακροπρόθεσμων δανείων. / --
