This master thesis consists of three parts. The first part provides theoretical background and the base of the analysis.

This thesis concentrates on the examination of the effectiveness of development assistance and its comparison to the effectiveness of the integration of developing countries into foreign trade. The main aim of this study is to determine, whether the effectiveness of development assistance could be increased through closer interconnection with trade support. Consequently, the possibilities of the Czech Export Bank's participation in such arrangements are examined. The dependence of gross domestic product, gross national income per capita and life expectancy at birth on the amounts of development aid received and on the openness of development economies is measured by Pearson's coefficient of correlation and subsequently compared. All indicators were obtained from the databases of the OECD and the WB. The results showed a much more positive connection between openness and the factors examined than they did for the correlation between the amounts of the development aid received and the same indicators. The investigation in the Czech Export Bank revealed various opinions, it certified, however, that a closer connection between development assistance and the business sphere can be advisable. The support of the integration of developing economies into international trade was proven to be effective in a long run and the resources of development assistance should be used to establish the necessary technological and theoretical background to make it happen.

The main goal of my dissertation is to analyze the personality of Engliš, who was an important representative of the scientific and financial elites during the period of the First Republic. I will venture to explain the causes of his rise during the First Republic and aim to characterize his relations with other elites. The term "elite" refers not only to representatives of the political and financial life of the First Republic, but also to the important leaders of its scientific and cultural scenes. In my dissertation I want to address the relationships between the elite of the First Republic and Karel Engliš. Public opinion played an important role in the relations between Engliš and the elite of the First Republic, in particular as Engliš was presented in the media and how the public perceived him. His family was supportive of Karel Engliš but also caused him many problems.

Supervision of financial activity Abstract The activity of entities operating on the financial market is one of the most regulated ones. Economists generally agree that services provided by entities in the financial system are so vital for the functioning of the economy that the overgrown regulatory rules are well- founded. In response to the global financial crisis, there has been a significant development in the regulation and supervision of the financial system, in particular the expansion of the prudential rules of major institutions and the emergence of new areas of macro-prudential supervision and resolution supervision. These are largely the subject of the submitted diploma thesis. The aim of the thesis is to analyze the supervision of the financial system of the Czech Republic in the perspective of institutional and functional classification and in context with their development after the global financial crisis. While the theoretical part of the thesis defines the characteristics and models of the institutional organization of the supervisory authorities, the analytical part identifies their elements projected into the Czech legal system and analyzes the role of the Czech National Bank as a supervisory body of the financial system of the Czech Republic, integrated both from an institutional and a...

This diploma thesis deals with the regulation of the activities of banks, which has already been relatively extensive but as a result of the most recent financial crisis, it has been extended by new rules and requirements. The aim of this thesis is to clarify the essence of the basic obligations of the banks related to the entry into the banking sector and to working in the sector, and last but not least to leaving the sector and to the termination of the banking activity. All these obligations are then amended by new requirements for crisis management and the insurance of deposits, which are also based on prudential and precautionary principles and aim at maintaining the security and stability of the banking sector. This thesis is divided into six individual chapters but they are connected with each other. The initial chapter defines the key concept of this thesis, namely the concept of the bank from the legal perspective because the legal definition of the bank is slightly different than the economic definition. This thesis as well enumerates the forms of legal regulation that can be used in this area of law, whether it concerns directly applicable European legislation, primary or delegated legislation or non-binding statements and recommendations of regulators. Then the following chapters deal...
