This work concentrates on the issue of capital adequacy of banks. Inadequate capital base of the banking sector is often referred to as one of the causes of the latest financial crisis. Such topic is currently very actual. Even banking regulators pay high attention to this topic. In my thesis I focus on legal and economic aspects of this topic. It is typical for the banking sector that banks operate with much more leverage effect than enterprises belonging to other sectors. Therefore, I focus on the root cause of this phenomenon in the third chapter. I assess the bank indebtedness using the theory of optimal capital structure and I also address the relations between economic and regulatory capital. In the fourth chapter I focus on the concept of capital adequacy and its comparison with leverage indicator. The next chapter concentrates on the development of regulatory minimum capital adequacy standards developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, known as Basel I and Basel II. The last but one chapter focuses on the latest regulatory rules Basel III governing the capital adequacy of banks and their legal implementation. Final chapter analyzes the impact of Basel III rules on the capital structure of banks in the European Union and the Czech Republic. A separate part of the chapter is...

Das Ziel der gewählten Diplomarbeit zum Thema,,Die Europäische Zentralbank und die Bankenunion" ist es die historischen Entwicklungen, die der Schaffung der Europäischen Zentralbank vorausgegangen sind, sowie die Tätigkeit, den Status, die Funktionsgrundsätze und die Organisation dieses unabhängigen Unionsorgans aufzuzeigen, und schließlich die Entstehung und die Säulen eines neuen Phänomens der Bankenunion, darzustellen. Die Arbeit ist thematisch in vier Kapitel unterteilt. Das erste Kapitel stellt in seinen neun Abschnitten den historischen Hintergrund zu den Ereignissen des letzten Jahrhunderts dar, die die Fachwelt als signifikant für die chaffung der Europäischen Zentralbank angesehen hat. Es handelt sich daher um das Kapitel, das den Leser ermöglichen soll, den historischen Kontext dieser EU-Einrichtung zu verstehen und damit ihre Bedeutung und ihre Rolle nicht nur im Zusammenhang mit der europäischen Integration wahrzunehmen. Das zweite Kapitel legt die grundlegende Unterscheidung zwischen ESZB und der Eurozone dar. Aber vor allem widmet es sich der Europäischen Zentralbank als der EU-Einrichtung und der juristischen Person, wobei die Fragen hinsichtlich ihres Sitzes, ihrer Rechtspersönlichkeit, ihres Kapitals, ihrer Unabhängigkeit, ihrer Verantwortlichkeit und Transparenz, Organisation und...

This diploma thesis is focused on the description of Inflation Targeting regime in the Czech Republic. The paper is divided into three parts. The first part deals with inflation and its targeting and with the economical circumstances that led to the launch of this monetary policy regime in the Czech Republic. The next part concerns the central bank reaction function, transmission channels, evaluation of the inflation target sets and the description of prognostic models that the central bank uses for forecasting. Then main stress is laid on the new structural dynamic model "g3". The last part describes my own inflation prognosis, which is based on the time series analysis.

The thesis "Inflation targeting in circumstances of low interest rates" describes the monetary policy of the Czech National Bank with main aim on its current problems. The target of the thesis is to analytically prove the disruption of a section of the transmission mechanism when the repo rate should determine the interest rates on the czech interbank market. This disruption should have been caused by the recent financial crisis.

This doctoral thesis devotes itself to macro-finance models of the Czech yield curve that enable the modeling of the yield curve as a whole and belong to the group of multi-factors models. These factors are unobservable or latent variables, and are intuitively called level, slope and curvature. Macro-finance models not only fit the yield curve through the use of latent factors, but they also try to provide a macroeconomic interpretation. The macro part of the model uses a type of VAR model, where the macroeconomic variables are endogenous or exogenous, or some macroeconomic model based on e.g. a New Keynesian economy. Such a type of models can answer (1) how the macroeconomic variables affect the yield curve, and, on the other hand, (2) how these macroeconomic variables are affected by the yield curve. The EUR/CZK exchange rate and the external environment play an important role in the Czech small open economy (in particular, developments in the eurozone and the impact of global investors' sentiment toward risky assets). Thus, we should take this into consideration when applying to Czech data. It has been shown that temporary macroeconomic and financial shocks (to inflation, output gap, EUR/CZK exchange rate, external demand, etc.) strongly affect the short end of the yield curve; however, longer spot rates react only marginally. The longer end of the curve may move more significantly in the case of a longer duration of the above-mentioned shocks (thus affecting inflationary expectations) or in the case of shocks to the inflation target and real equilibrium interest rates.

Diplomová práce analyzuje a hodnotí interní projekt bankovní společnosti, v rámci něhož byl implementován softwarový balík na podporu detekce podezřelých bankovních operací. Povinnost bránit legalizaci výnosů z trestné činnosti je dána zákonem a finanční instituce mohou tuto povinnost realizovat různým způsobem. Práce též hodnotí projektové řízení v bance a úroveň jeho vyspělosti. Zjištěné nedostatky jsou podkladem pro doporučení bance a návrhy na budoucí opatření.
