A case of cefditoren‐induced Acute Generalized Exanthematous Pustulosis during COVID‐19 pandemics. Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions (SCARs) are an …
2020
Abstract We read with interest the article by Recalcati et al. about the report of cutaneous manifestations in COVID‐19 patients. We would like to highlight that some potentially severe manifestations in these patients are not directly related to the coronavirus but to the medications administered.
Foreign Direct Investment Drivers in Romania
2013
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) represents a condition sine qua non for a sustainable development of Romania, taking into consideration the fact that the domestic capital is not enough to assure a positive and significant growth. The present study uses the multiple linear regression to determine the main factors which influence FDI level in Romania. The international reserve and the capital market index BET have a direct and positive impact on the foreign investment flow, while the short, medium and long private and public external debt proved to influence direct, but in a negative way, the FDI.
Lower and Upper Probability Bounds for Some Conjunctions of Two Conditional Events
2018
In this paper we consider, in the framework of coherence, four different definitions of conjunction among conditional events. In each of these definitions the conjunction is still a conditional event. We first recall the different definitions of conjunction; then, given a coherent probability assessment (x, y) on a family of two conditional events \(\{A|H,B|K\}\), for each conjunction \((A|H) \wedge (B|K)\) we determine the (best) lower and upper bounds for the extension \(z=P[(A|H) \wedge (B|K)]\). We show that, in general, these lower and upper bounds differ from the classical Frechet-Hoeffding bounds. Moreover, we recall a notion of conjunction studied in recent papers, such that the res…
Essays on Corruption
2021
Paper III and Paper IV is not published yet. Corruption is blamed for reductions in operational efficiency, information asymmetry, limited income distribution, policy failure, and weak economic growth and development. Corruption can originate from either the “demand-side” (the recipients of the bribe) or the “supply-side” (the givers of the bribe). This double edge effect of corruption on the economy and society makes it a multidisciplinary subject and phenomenon. Thus, scholars from different fields and disciplines, such as finance, banking, economics, accounting, law, foreign aid, and international business, examined and analyzed corruption as a multidisciplinary subject. In this disserta…
Dziļas un visaptverošas brīvās tirdzniecības nolīguma loma ārvalstu tiešo investīciju plūsmās no ES uz Gruziju un Moldovu
2018
Šajā maģistra darbā tiek izvērtētas un analizētas savstarpējās attiecības starp padziļinātajiem un visaptverošajiem brīvās tirdzniecības līgumiem (DCFTA), kas ir parakstīti starp ES-Gruziju un ES-Moldovu, kā arī apskatīti ārvalstu tiešie ieguldījumi (FDI) no Eiropas Savienības uz uzņēmējvalstīm Gruziju un Moldovu. Izmantojot parakstīto Asociāciju piekrišanas (Asssociation Agreement) materiālu kvalitatīvajā kontentanalīzē, tas paplašina ieskatu tirdzniecības līgumu attiecībās un FDI kustībā un apritē Austrumu partneru valstīs, t.i., Gruzijā un Moldovā, saistībā ar šo valstu tirdzniecības attiecībām ar Eiropas Savienību. FDI nozīmīguma loma ekonomikas attīstībā pasaulē ir ievērojumi augusi. N…
Compound conditionals, Fr\'echet-Hoeffding bounds, and Frank t-norms
2021
Abstract In this paper we consider compound conditionals, Frechet-Hoeffding bounds and the probabilistic interpretation of Frank t-norms. By studying the solvability of suitable linear systems, we show under logical independence the sharpness of the Frechet-Hoeffding bounds for the prevision of conjunctions and disjunctions of n conditional events. In addition, we illustrate some details in the case of three conditional events. We study the set of all coherent prevision assessments on a family containing n conditional events and their conjunction, by verifying that it is convex. We discuss the case where the prevision of conjunctions is assessed by Lukasiewicz t-norms and we give explicit s…
EMNCS – LESSONS ON THE WAY TO AN INNOVATION-BASED DEVELOPMENT. EMPIRICAL FINDINGS
2015
The main focus of (the two parts of) this article is on the emerging countries and their development paths. Particularly, it emphasizes on the role and contribution of innovation (of all kinds, in all its forms) for multinational companies from emerging economies (EMNC); the entire research endeavor is placed under the auspices of the knowledge-based society – the one that makes knowledge the ultimate source of power, enabling entities to use and potentially multiply it at the same time at global scale. Analyzing the situation of some emerging economies (starting from their best ranked multinationals), the article draws some empirical and theoretical conclusions on the ways knowledge and in…
The Effect of Nominal Exchange Rate Volatility on Real Macroeconomic Performance in the CEE Countries
2011
Working Paper Gate 09-34; International audience; This paper analyzes the relation between nominal exchange rate volatility and several macroeconomic variables, namely real per output growth, excess credit, foreign direct investment (FDI) and the current account balance, in the Central and Eastern European EU Member States. Using panel estimations for the period between 1995 and 2008, we find that lower exchange rate volatility is associated with higher growth, higher stocks of FDI, higher current account deficits, and higher excess credit. The results are economically and statistically significant, and robust.

Exchange Rate Volatility and FDI in the EMU Neighborhood Countries
2008
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the role of exchange rate volatility in explaining the evolution of FDI inflows in the EMU neighbourhood countries. Examining the question in the framework of an empirical model that considers the major macroeconomic determinants of FDI, the results of the paper suggest that the effect of exchange rate volatility on FDI crucially depends on a country’s degree of openness. In fact, while exchange rate volatility has positive or null effect for relatively closed economies, it has a negative impact on economies with a high level of openness. This result is particularly relevant for transition economies (Emerging Europe and CIS) and is robust to the use o…
