2011
Questo lavoro di ricerca si inserisce nell’ambito delle ricerche sui sistemi regionali di innovazione1 contrassegnati principalmente da due elementi: la dimensione sistemica dell’innovazione e la concentrazione di attività innovative su base territoriale. In particolare obiettivo principale di questo contributo è quello di approfondire il ruolo che la finanza innovativa può esercitare nei distretti tecnologici. Nel trattate questa tematica è stato seguito un percorso che può essere scomposto sostanzialmente in due parti. Nella prima parte è stata esposta una rassegna dei più recenti contributi sia italiani che stranieri con particolare riferimento ai due principali aspetti caratterizzanti u…
Soil seed bank and among-years genetic diversity in arid populations of Eruca sativa Miller (Brassicaceae)
2013
Abstract Populations of Eruca sativa from arid environments exhibit greater physiological dormancy than those that originated in more favorable ones. We tested the possible relative contribution of the soil seed bank (SSB) to the aboveground cohorts in desert and semiarid populations. Seedlings that emerged from the SSB under controlled irrigation were distinguished from those that emerged after exposure of the remaining ungerminated SSB to gibberellic acid as constituting non-dormant and dormant SSBs, respectively. On average, the total SSB was significantly larger in the semiarid than in the desert population. In both sites, the aboveground and SSB cohorts exhibited closely similar geneti…
La compatibilità della finanza islamica con l'ordinamento italiano: commento al progetto di legge del 2017
2019
In 2017 a draft law on shari’ah compliant contracts was presented to the Chamber of Deputies. According to Profit-Loss Sharing principle, which is at the basis of Islamic contracts, in addition to providing credit the lender shares debtor’s business risk, and the ban on ribà, associated with the prohibition of interest and usury. There is a problem of compatibility between the Islamic finance approach and the Western finance model, only partially addressed by the draft law. However, Islamic contracts pursue an interest worthy of protection on the basis of article n. 1322, 2nd paragraph, of the Civil Code, and the transition to the universal bank model makes it possible to bring the Islamic …

2021
ANOTĀCIJA Šī darba mērķis ir izskaidrot islāma banku un finanšu sistēmas pamatprincipus un ētiku Malaizijā. Monetārā iekļaušana ir kļuvusi par neizbēgami nozīmīgu satraukumu neskaitāmām valstīm visā pasaulē. Strauja islāma aktīvu attīstība Malaizijā vēlā laikā - kopš 2000. gada dramatiski palielinās islāma budžeta organizāciju resursi. Lai veicinātu to kā alternatīvu tradicionālajai banku darbībai rietumu tirgū.

A Scholar in Action in Interwar America: John H. Williams on Trade Theory and Bretton Woods
2009
In this paper we analyse the scientific contributions of Harvard economist John H. Williams as international trade theorist and monetary reformer together with his activities as a Vice President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. In the first 2 Sections we first present a succinct overview of Williams’ main contributions to international trade theory and to the interwar debate on the reform of the international monetary system. Particular attention will be devoted to his early academic writings which contained different critical arguments against the two main tenets of classical international economics: the Ricardian theory of comparative advantages and the gold standard. These critic…
Heat-stable antigen is expressed by murine keratinocytes and delivers costimulatory signals in T-cell activation.
1995
Heat-stable antigen (HSA), expressed by various antigen-presenting cells (APC), has been described as a costimulatory molecule for CD4+ T cells. Recently, we observed that HSA also serves as an important costimulatory molecule on epidermal Langerhans cells (LC). During these studies, low levels of HSA staining were also detected on normal murine keratinocytes (KC). To investigate whether HSA also is involved in T-cell activation by KC, normal murine KC or the spontaneously transformed KC cell-line PAM 212 were treated with PDB or PMA to induce HSA-expression. FACS analyses showed induction of HSA expression on normal murine KC, as well as PAM 212 cells. In functional assays PDB or PMA-treat…
The effects of mobile banking application user satisfaction and system usage on bank-customer relationships
2016
This study examines mobile banking (m-banking) application usage in Finland by linking it with customer-bank relationship development. Specifically, we examine how usage is related to relationship commitment, overall satisfaction, intention to recommend the bank and future intentions to remain with the bank. A survey was used to collect data from experienced mbanking application users. In total, 273 valid responses were received. The results support the hypotheses and reveal that user satisfaction with m-banking application usage has a strong positive association with usage of m-banking applications. Usage, in turn, was positively related to all examined bank-customer relationship related v…
Kredītēšana Latvijā: Attīstība un problēmas
2016
Galvenais kreditēšanas uzdevums ir veicināt labvēlīgus makroekonomiskos apstākļus tautsaimniecības ilgtermiņa attīstībai. Kreditēšanai ir nepieciešama cieša uzraudzība, lai tās darbība būtu vērsta uz attīstību. Sava darba sākumā autore sniedz informāciju par pareizu kreditēšanas pārvaldību, ar to saistītajiem riskiem un kontroles pasākumiem. Lai atspoguļotu kreditēšanas attīstības posmus, tiek veikta komercbanku un ne-banku kredītportfeļa un ar to saistīto risku analīze. Tiek atklātas kreditēšanas problēmas no aizņēmēju un aizdevēju puses, piedāvāti iespējamie pasākumi to novēršanai. Darbā tiek noskaidrotas pastāvošās problēmas Latvijas kreditēšanas situācijā, tiek piedāvāti iespējamie vari…
Kvantitatīvā stimulēšana eirozonā
2015
Sākoties Lielajai Recesijai, vairākas attīstīto ekonomiku centrālās bankas uzsāka nestandarta monetārās politikas operācijas, tostarp kvantitatīvo stimulēšanu. Lai nepieļautu eirozonas ekonomikas iekļūšanu deflācijas spirālē un sasniegtu savu galveno mērķi – uzturēt cenu stabilitāti, arī Eiropas Centrālā banka ir uzsākusi kvantitatīvas stimulēšanas pasākumus. Maģistra darba mērķis ir, pamatojoties uz ekonometrisko modeli, novērtēt kvantitatīvas stimulēšanas programmas ietekmi uz eirozonas ekonomiku un izteikt priekšlikumus monetārās politikas pilnveidošanai. Autora izstrādātā modeļa rezultāti liecina, ka kvantitatīvai stimulēšanai eirozonā būs nozīmīga pozitīva ietekme uz reģiona izlaidi un…
