Asset Managers

Chapter 1 introduces the idea of the chain as related to investment management. It highlights the increasing importance and influence of the asset management industry and argues that, despite this fact, the behaviour and decision-making of asset managers has been little studied. The chapter suggests that investment decisions today cannot be understood by focusing on isolated investors. Rather, most of their money flows through a chain: a sequence of intermediaries that ‘sit between’ savers and companies/governments. The chapter introduces the central argument of the book that investment management is shaped profoundly by the opportunities and constraints that this chain creates.

The Silk Road

Subject Outlook for sovereign wealth funds. Significance The world's largest sovereign wealth funds (SWFs) manage more than 3 trillion dollars in assets, but budgetary pressure from lower oil prices is causing Saudi Arabia and others to dip into the funds. Even with some outflows, SWFs remain large strategic investors, and their investment decisions have important effects. China is investing in infrastructure in its neighbouring countries and expects the SWFs to cooperate with the Silk Road Fund (SRF), a new state-backed private equity fund. Impacts If oil-producing countries' SWFs sell assets massively, there may be disruptions in the affected markets. The largest SWFs' growing focus on risk management leaves them better positioned to manage funding challenges and withdrawal risk. Strategic asset allocation will be further directed to meet the strong demand for infrastructure investment in emerging markets. Banks that have brokered deals for SWFs will need to find new customers to compensate for the reduced business. A search for yield may reverse the trend of a falling share of SWFs assets being managed externally, benefiting asset management firms.

The financial health of company is extremely important for potential investment decisions. Financial health is mainly assessed by financial analysis which identify strengths and weakness. The aim of paper is to evaluate and to compare financial health of selected international Slovak and Czech airports. We applied the best-known financial variables, particularly liquidity ratios, asset management ratios, debt ratios and profitability ratios. Then, we compare results of Bratislava Airport with Kosice Airport, Ostrava Airport and Prague Airport. We calculate financial ratios based on statements of international airports. The results show that Bratislava Airport is mainly good at current assets management during analysed period. On the other hand, Bratislava Airport have long-term problem with profitability ratios.
