Assessing Rollover Criteria for EUAs and CERs
2014
This study discusses how to roll over European Union Allowances (EUAs) and Certified Emissions Reduction (CERs) futures contracts with different maturities. The aim is to elucidate whether or not the choice of rollover date is important when constructing EUAs and CERs continuous futures time series. We have applied five different methodologies to link the series and our findings indicate that return distributions do not significantly differ for the different criteria. This result has direct practical implications in the field of applied econometrics of carbon markets given that we prove that the selection of the simple last-day rollover methodology criterion has no downside not only in term…

Directions of Economic Integration in the Arab East
2019
Economic integration is one of the most important premises of globalization. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effects that economic integration can generate in the Arab East, but also to investigate the current state of integration in the region. The benefits that a state can benefit by strengthening its position in the field of economic integration, either through preferential trade agreements or through foreign direct investment or labor migration, are obvious. The Arab East can thus attract a more sustained economic growth process for the less developed countries, either through intra-regional cooperation, through contact with the Arab states that are members of the Gulf Coope…
Accounting Changes on Green Certificates in Romania
2017
The purpose of green certificates is to get more renewable electric energy into the energy market at the expense of traditional energy, which in most countries is based on fossil fuel. These renewable technologies are too expensive to enter the market on commercial terms. A key feature of the scheme is that producers of energy based on new renewable energy sources receive certificates from the authorities, proportional to their output. The users of electric energy are required to buy a certain amount of these certificates when they buy electricity. Green certificates may in principle contribute to a reduction of the production of traditional energy.
The Characterization of the Taxation Process in Terms of Tax Culture, as an Element of Novelty

Economic Concentrations vs State of Competitive Space
2017
Achieving market performance is the main objective of companies in business transactions. Developing competitiveness and gaining a large market share is conditional on achieving the proposed objectives. A way to increase the market power is to do mergers or takeovers. They can be vertical or horizontal, depending on the type of activity realized by the parties. Effects resulting from the economic mergers made under certain conditions, can distort the competitive environment on the market, with a serious damage. This leads to the need to analyze them in the compatibility with the competitive environment. Permission to achieve a merger occurs after a comprehensive study of cases considering t…
A Financial Perspective on Value Creation
2018
The recent financial crisis, together with the economic bubbles and cycles of explosions have all proved us that creating, evaluating and maintaining value represent not only a competitive advantage, but also a requirement in uncertain situations. And when also the interests are not intercorrelated within the groups, the only way to effectively employ the available resources and to help the economy is by seeking to achieve long lasting value development. The principles used in establishing the value, followed by measurement techniques have stood the test of time. In a world where short-termism still remains a topic open to debates, it is mandatory to be able not to think of creating value f…
Työn ja perheen ristiriidat kolmannen sektorin palkkatyössä
2012
Kolmannella sektorilla tehtävän palkkatyön määrä on kasvanut nopeasti viimeisen kymmenen vuoden aikana. Vuonna 2011 sektorin palkkatyöpanos oli jo noin 77 000 henkilötyövuotta. Tässä artikkelissa tutkimme työn ja perheen yhteensovittamista ja siihen vaikuttavia tekijöitä kolmannen sektorin palkkatyössä. Aineistoina käytämme kolmannen sektorin palkansaajista koostuvaa aineistoa (N = 1 412) ja Tilastokeskuksen keräämä työolotutkimusaineistoa (N = 4 378). Tulostemme mukaan kolmannen sektorin palkansaajien keskuudessa työn ja perheen ristiriidat ovat selvästi muita työmarkkinoita yleisempiä. Keskeinen syy konfliktikokemuksiin ovat kolmannen sektorin työn tekijöilleen asettamat vaatimukset, kuten…
