In the Master’s Paper the system of payments by drafts, opportunities of business funding with the help of drafts as well as their significance in the activities of the national commercial banks and economic entities are analysed. In order to realize the selected aim, the theoretical aspects of payment by drafts, analysed by Lithuanian and foreign authors, were systematized and generalized. Structure, level and trends of the obligations with drafts of the economic entities and the drafts, discounted in the national banks, comparing the indices obtained with other business financing forms were established. Public registry data on the objected against drafts was analysed in order to find out dynamics of non-payment by drafts as well as essential sizes and spread of the draft amounts and terms. Thorough investigation of the reasons, predetermining the intensity the draft is used in the commercial activities was performed: issues encountered by the companies using drafts as well as reasons for the drafts aren’t used were established. In the constructive part of the Master’s Paper I suggest recommendations for improvement and optimum use of the payment by drafts in line with the current economic and legal situation in the country.

Bibliography: p. 188-202. / Recent developments in the capital account of South Africa's balance of payments have giyen cause for concern about the capital account and the appropriate policies that should be implemented to protect the level of South Africa's foreign exchange reserves. These developments have contributed to the appointment of a Commission of Inquiry into the Monetary System and monetary policy in South Africa, and an interim report on exchange rate policies is expected in November, 1978. This study, which was inspired by the lively debate on this issue, is an attempt to analyse the general trends in the capital account particularly those related to the supply of foreign capital, the exchange control policies of the authorities to protect the capital account from sudden adverse fluctuations, and the determinants of flows of foreign capital.
