The main goal of each investor when investing capital is to recover funds. The current market brings unlimited opportunities in creating an investment strategy. This strategy is highly dependent on the investor's preferences, his attitude to risk, financial capacity, expected return, self-interest, and many other factors that determine what is best for the investor. For this reason, the submitted work concerns investors who will comply with strict restrictions. In this way, an investment strategy for a selected group of investors can be created. The paper focuses on investors in Slovakia. The art of investment decisions to make the greatest possible return is portfolio management. The studies presented in this work are designed to explore different models and to achieve investor goals to maximise their investment and minimise risk. Investing is a systematic and long-term process where the investor gives up part of his free funds to increase their value and collect the return for them in the future. Investing is effective only if it follows certain rules. Sending a monthly deposit with iron regularity is, in the event of a recession and crisis, the only guarantee of achieving the desired future goal of investing. Mutual funds are a simple way of collective investment, where a person collects money from investors and invests in various assets such as stocks, government bonds, currencies, commodities. Profits from the investment are distributed to all investors who contributed to the fund. These funds are professionally managed by investment specialists based on their market knowledge. A share is equity security representing an equity interest in a joint-stock company. Monetary policy and financial stress significantly affect the ability of the actively managed fund's performance vis-a-vis ETFs performance. This fact must be stated as this is a limitation of the analysis in the presented paper.

By surveying contemporary sources this article reveals direct evidence for the involvement of the South Sea Company in the passage of the Bubble Act. The dominant position of the Company and of its national debt conversion scheme in the affairs of England in 1720 support the conclusion that the act was in fact a piece of special-interest legislation for the Company. The short-term interest that motivated the enactment, together with the limited legal and economic effects of the act, minimized its significance as a turning point in the long-term development of the English joint-stock company.

The influential work of Markowitz (1952, 1959) provides foundation to modern investment philosophy. Investors can reap the potential benefit of portfolio diversification only if the involved asset classes in investment basket are not perfectly correlated. Objective of this study is to empirically investigate the cointegration among equity market of Pakistan and its major trading partners (China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, UK and USA). Sample period of study starts from 2004 to 2015, on weekly basis. Bivariate cointegration (Johansen, 1991, 1995) analysis reveals that equity market of Pakistan has no long term relationship with any of the equity markets of its major trading partners. Therefore, we recommend to potential investors, portfolio managers, and policy makers that prospective benefit of portfolio diversification can be achieved by investing in the equity markets of major trading partners of Pakistan. Further, they should be vigilant regarding the co-movement among equity markets during portfolio management decisions.

The aim of this study was to show the importance of modern non X-ray diagnostic techniques of coronary arteries for diagnosis and treatment of CHD. Material and methods. 110 patients, who took part in the study, were divided into two groups according to their coronarography: group 1 - patients with intermediate coronary stenosis (n = 80) and group 2 - patients with normal coronary arteries (n = 30). All patients of group1 underwent FFR measurement in the magistral arteries. On the base of FFR value the second group was conventionally divided into two subgroups: Ia (47.5% patients) - with a positive FFR value (≤0,8), in which the lesion was considered functionally significant and responsible for ischemia, and Ib (52.5% patients) - with a negative FFR value (>0,8). In the case of positive FFR value patients underwent IVUS-guided PCI. Results. Survival index free of MACE and readmissions was not significantly different in the group II and subgroup Ib and were 100 and 95.2%, respectively (p > 0.05). A comparison of this index in the subgroups Ia and Ib was no significantly different (97.3% and 95.2%, respectively, p > 0.05). The rate of restenosis in the Ia subgroup, which required re-intervention, was 2.7%, which corresponds to the data in the literature. Late stent thrombosis was not revealed. Conclusions. Survival index free of MACE and readmissions is not different in the long-term period in the study groups.

The article examines the influence of investment horizon increase on comparative advantages of main asset classes and on the principles of investment strategy development. Unlike in the traditional approach of portfolio management theory, the study shows that for long-term investments corporate bonds have the advantage over equity in terms of return-risk tradeoff. This fact argues in favor of the fixed-income oriented (including infrastructure bonds) investment strategies for pension funds and institutional investors. The article draws special attention to the importance of regular portfolio rebalancing for long-term investors. In this case the variation of returns decreases and the variation of risks increases with the holding period. Consequently, with horizon increase a long-term investor should allocate more assets in the low-risk financial instruments in order to keep a certain level of return-risk tradeoff. This argument becomes increasingly important for the purposes of pension savings management.

The performance of companies in the real sector of the economy is highly relevant for the economic development of the country. The Joint Stock Company “Russian Railways” (the JSCo “RZD”) occupies a special place in the Russian economy, since it does 45% of the total cargo turnover and more than 25% of passenger traffic in the country. The aim of the article is to identify trends in key financial and economic indicators of the Russian railways in the context of the structural reform of the industry. The objective of the study is to develop a methodology for the long-term management of the financial and economic performance of the railways, as well as recommendations for its sustainable growth. The authors analyzed the financial and economic performance of the JSCo “RZD” for 15 years. They used the analysis of time series, logical and analytical method, as well as benchmarking — comparative analysis based on reference indicators. It is shown that with a low but positive profitability, the company’s financial and economic situation can be improved. The authors reviewed the dynamics of the operating costs ratio, whose value has an excessively high level in the JSCo “RZD”. To identify ways to achieve the optimum level of operating costs ratio, an analysis of financial and economic indicators of the US railway companies was conducted. The factors contributing to the systematic improvement of the operating costs ratio were revealed. Among them are: increase in the JSCo “RZD” market opportunities and their competent use based on flexible adaptation to market conditions and changing customer needs; attraction of private and private-state investments. On this basis, the following actions are proposed for improving the financial and economic indicators of the JSCo “RZD”: monitoring of the operating costs ratio; developing a scenario program to improve the long-term competitiveness and effectiveness of the Russian Railways for the period of 2025–2035. The materials of the article are of practical importance and can be used by public authorities, transport companies, as well as for the educational purposes.

The results of the empirical research show that the active portfolio management of mutual funds in the Republic of Serbia has not been successful in terms of outperforming the market.
