Opis:: Research background: As Artificial Intelligence (AI) weaves into the fabric of daily life, its societal and economic implications underscore the urgency of embracing an environment conducive to its informed adoption. This requires a sophisticated understanding of the societal perception and adaptability to AI, emphasizing the importance of developing comprehensive AI literacy. Purpose of the article: This study inquiries into the sociodemographic underpinnings of AI literacy, aiming to demystify how knowledge about AI's capabilities in everyday tasks varies across individual population segments. It allows us to define the basic determinants that influence the differences in the individual population structures. It also reveals the potential risks associated with the use of AI. Methods: This study investigates the awareness of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in daily lives of the Czech population, focusing on the influence of socio-demographic factors. Utilizing computer-assisted web interviewing, we surveyed 1,041 respondents in April 2023, ensuring representativeness by applying quotas for age, gender, education, region, and residential area size. Our investigation spanned AI applications in sectors like customer service, music playlist recommendation, email sorting, healthcare, online shopping, and home devices. Findings & value added: Findings taken from descriptive statistics reveal variable AI awareness levels across different domains, with younger demographics exhibiting notably lower awareness in several areas. Regression analysis highlighted that awareness is significantly associated with gender, age, and education level. Regression analysis showed that males, younger age groups and those with higher levels of education were more likely to correctly answer majority of questions about the role of AI in everyday life. These insights are crucial for stakeholders aiming to enhance AI literacy, tailor communication strategies, and develop digital platforms, offering guidance for policymakers and market analysts in optimizing AI-related initiatives.

Opis:: Research background: The post-World Financial Crisis period has showed us that an application of the qualitative data focused on the expectations of the enterprises and consumers in a combination with the quantitative data in the individual economy sectors is a good prerequisite for reliable prediction of the economic cycles. Purpose of the paper: The main goal of the presented study was to test the ESI prediction capabilities and its components in a relation to the economic cycles of the EU countries in the individual time periods. Methods: The time series for the period Q1 2000 to Q4 2022 and the three selected time periods were a subject to undergo the selection of the cyclical component applying the Hodrick-Prescott filter and then, the relationship between the variables was determined employing the Pearson correlation coefficient with the time shifts. The relation of ESI and its components to GDP and the Index of Industrial Production (IIP), which represent the economic cycle, was analysed. The prediction volume and the cross-correlation values determined the nature of the observed cyclical variables. Findings & value added: The results of the analysis point to the fact that ESI and its components are able to ensure a high-quality prediction of the economic cycle only in the selected EU countries. Regarding the components of the ESI, the Consumer confidence indicator, Construction and Industrial confidence indicators show the best predictive capabilities. The analytical outcomes show that the ESI size and lead period vary over time and after the 2008 crisis, the ESI showed better predictive capabilities in a relation to GDP and IIP than before the crisis. The Covid 19 pandemic had a significant negative impact on the ESI predictive capabilities.

Opis:: Research background: Transport represents a dynamic element in the tourism system. In recent decades, transport has been a subject of research mainly from the point of view of the sustainability of the economic systems and the environmental aspects. Purpose of the article: This study aimed to quantify the relationships between the selected indicators of road transport development and the expenditure of tourism visitors in the selected European countries in the context of the development of their competitiveness. Methods: The road transport indicators were applied in the research trajectories: density of road (DNST), hare of road infrastructure investment (SH INF), share of motorways (SH MWY), and indicators of visitor expenditure for business (BTS), leisure (LTS), domestic (DTS) and foreign (VEFS) tourism. In the first phase of the analyses, the countries of the European part of the OECD (N = 27; period of 2010-2018) were divided into two clusters based on the development index (HDI) and the innovation index (GII) through the cluster analysis. The two groups were created - more and less developed countries. The results of the analysis of differences declare that there are differences between these groups in the DNST, SH INF, BTS, LTS, and DTS indicators. The correlation and regression analysis methods were applied to quantify the relationships between the variables. Findings & value added: The difference between the groups of the countries was also shown in the relationships between the road transport development indicators and visitor spending. In more developed countries, the relationship between the traffic indicators on BTS and DTS was significant. In less developed countries, significant relationships were identified with LST and VEFS. This finding underscores regional disparities and cautions against assuming that what policy guidelines from developed countries will be effective in less developed ones. Therefore, when designing improvement policies, it is vital to consider countries in terms of their level of development.

Opis:: Research background: In a modern economy, full of complexities, ensuring a business' financial stability, and increasing its financial performance and competitiveness, has become especially difficult. Then, monitoring the company's financial situation and predicting its future development becomes important. Assessing the financial health of business entities using various models is an important area in not only scientific research, but also business practice. Purpose of the article: This study aims to predict the bankruptcy of companies in the engineering and automotive industries of the Slovak Republic using a multilayer neural network and logistic regression. Importantly, we develop a novel an early warning model for the Slovak engineering and automotive industries, which can be applied in countries with undeveloped capital markets. Methods: Data on the financial ratios of 2,384 companies were used. We used a logistic regression to analyse the data for the year 2019 and designed a logistic model. Meanwhile, the data for the years 2018 and 2019 were analysed using the neural network. In the prediction model, we analysed the predictive performance of several combinations of factors based on the industry sector, use of the scaling technique, activation function, and ratio of the sample distribution to the test and training parts. Findings & value added: The financial indicators ROS, QR, NWC/A, and PC/S reduce the likelihood of bankruptcy. Regarding the value of this work, we constructed an optimal network for the automotive and engineering industries using nine financial indicators on the input layer in combination with one hidden layer. Moreover, we developed a novel prediction model for bankruptcy using six of these indicators. Almost all sampled industries are privatised, and most companies are foreign owned. Hence, international companies as well as researchers can apply our models to understand their financial health and sustainability. Moreover, they can conduct comparative analyses of their own model with ours to reveal areas of model improvements.

Opis:: Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, governments must support their economy to prevent a possible recession which will lead to an increase in public debt. Therefore, it is necessary to know important determinants of public debt. This paper provides an analysis of public debt determinants. The main aim of the article is to identify the impact of specific variables on the level of public debt in EU countries by using econometric methods. The article analyses studies that focus on determinants of public debt, and it defines ten fundamental independent (explanatory) variables. Panel data regression model is used to monitor the impact of these variables on an independent variable - public debt, while it uses data from 1999 to 2019. The model’s results show that the growth of variables, such as current account balance of payments, budget balance, public administration investments, inflation rate, and GDP growth, lead to reducing public debt in EU countries. On the other hand, the increase in variables, such as annual population density change and budget expenditure, leads to public debt growth. The impact of both, unemployment rate and purchasing power parity, on public debt is insignificant based on the study results.
W związku z pandemią Covid-19 rządy muszą wspierać swoją gospodarkę, aby zapobiec ewentualnej recesji, która doprowadzi do wzrostu długu publicznego. Dlatego konieczna jest znajomość ważnych determinant długu publicznego. Artykuł zawiera analizę determinant długu publicznego. Głównym celem artykułu jest identyfikacja wpływu poszczególnych zmiennych na poziom długu publicznego w krajach UE za pomocą metod ekonometrycznych. Artykuł analizuje badania, które koncentrują się na determinantach długu publicznego i definiuje dziesięć podstawowych zmiennych niezależnych (objaśniających). Panelowy model regresji danych służy do monitorowania wpływu tych zmiennych na zmienną niezależną - dług publiczny, natomiast wykorzystuje dane z lat 1999- 2019. Wyniki modelu pokazują, że wzrost zmiennych, takich jak bilans płatniczy obrotów bieżących, saldo budżetowe , inwestycje administracji publicznej, inflacja i wzrost PKB prowadzą do redukcji długu publicznego w krajach UE. Z drugiej strony wzrost zmiennych, takich jak roczna zmiana gęstości zaludnienia i wydatki budżetowe, prowadzi do wzrostu długu publicznego. Wpływ zarówno stopy bezrobocia, jak i parytetu siły nabywczej na dług publiczny jest, jak wynika z wyników badań, nieznaczny.

Opis:: In order to strengthen public health management, the main aim of the study was to identify possible changes in alcohol consumption during the health crisis, classified according to the socio-economic status of the Slovak population. The research sample consisted of 506 respondents (33% males and 67% females), and data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed from 29th of April 2020 to 1st July 2020. A crosstabulation showed that alcohol consumption did not change in about half of the respondents, while the majority of the remaining respondents reported a decrease in alcohol consumption compared to those who reported an increase. Females were more stable in their drinking than males. Correspondence analysis showed that high-income males (2500 to 2999 EUR) were more likely to drink excessively. Conversely, high-income females reported much less alcohol consumption. Health care professionals should pay increased attention to alcohol consumption in vulnerable groups at risk of developing an addiction. The findings of this study provide valuable information for improving public policy management and for effective decision-making in public health.
W celu wzmocnienia zarządzania zdrowiem publicznym, głównym celem badania była identyfikacja możliwych zmian w spożyciu alkoholu podczas kryzysu zdrowotnego, sklasyfikowanych według statusu społeczno-ekonomicznego ludności słowackiej. Próba badawcza składała się z 506 respondentów (33% mężczyzn i 67% kobiet), a dane zostały zebrane za pomocą ankiety internetowej rozprowadzanej od 29 kwietnia 2020 r. do 1 lipca 2020 r. Tabela krzyżowa wykazała, że spożycie alkoholu nie zmieniło się w około połowie badanych, podczas gdy większość pozostałych respondentów zgłosiła spadek spożycia alkoholu w porównaniu z tymi, którzy zgłosili wzrost. Kobiety były bardziej stabilne w piciu niż mężczyźni. Analiza korespondencji wykazała, że mężczyźni o wysokich dochodach (2500 do 2999 euro) częściej nadużywali alkoholu. Z drugiej strony kobiety o wysokich dochodach zgłaszały znacznie mniejsze spożycie alkoholu. Pracownicy służby zdrowia powinni zwracać większą uwagę na spożywanie alkoholu w grupach wrażliwych, zagrożonych uzależnieniem. Wyniki tego badania dostarczają cennych informacji na temat poprawy zarządzania polityką publiczną oraz skutecznego podejmowania decyzji w zakresie zdrowia publicznego.

Opis:: Research background: The patients' confidence in physicians, as well as in healthcare personnel in general, is an important determinant of the patients' satisfaction and their loyalty. The patients' confidence as well as their overall satisfaction is influenced by many determinants, which are in a causal relation. Purpose of the article: The main aim of the study is to find out which socio-demographic factors influence the confidence of inpatients in physicians, nurses, other medical personnel, as well as in the treatment as such. The inpatients´ confidence is considered as an important dimension of the inpatients' satisfaction. Methods: The questionnaire consists of 112 structured and semi-structured sur-vey questions. It was inspired by the HCAHPS survey. The questionnaire was distributed both on-line and in paper form in the Czech Republic. The dataset consists of 1,479 observations (899 females and 580 males). The descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression were used to process all data. Findings & value added: The research revealed significant differences in the confidence of inpatients in physicians in relation to the physicians' communication styles regarding the inpatient's gender. Males are more tolerant to the communication styles of physicians than women. There exists a relatively strong linear relationship between confidence in physicians, nurses, other healthcare professionals, and confidence in a treatment. Also, it was determined that in cases when a physician talks about an inpatient as if she/he is not there, the patient's confidence in the medical personnel is reduced by 65%. Overall confidence in medical personnel is also gender biased i.e., in 87% of cases, women are more likely to have a higher confidence in medical personnel than men. The age of inpatients is not statistically significant and its impact on a confidence in medical personnel is neglectable.

Opis:: Research background: Improving business conditions and SME development are signs of a country's macroeconomic stability. The issue of identifying and removing barriers to the development of firms in the SME segment is a priority in all countries with developed economies and its importance is currently increasing. Purpose of the article: The main aim of this paper is to explore possible differences in entrepreneurs' perception of the business environment based on the industry in which the company operates. The analysis contains also a national view, where a comparison between the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic is performed. Methods: Correspondence analysis was used to achieve the research objectives in order to examine the relations between the categorical variables. Its application is beneficial in cases where the graphic output is clearer than the numerical one. Findings & Value added: The presented research makes it possible to identify problematic aspects of doing business in each sector and to create support mechanisms for the creation of effective structural policies. Entrepreneurs from the Czech Republic's Production and Transport sectors agree with the statement that the business environment in the country is suitable for starting a business. As for business environment's suitability for doing business, neither Slovak nor Czech entrepreneurs sector-wide agreed with the given statement. Czech entrepreneurs from the Services, Trade and Construction sectors, respectively, agree, fully agree with the statement that the business environment in the country is reasonably risky and allows for doing business. In the case of entrepreneurs from Slovakia, no significant correspondence is observed. Findings regarding the statement that the business conditions in the country have improved over the past five years are the following: In the Czech Republic, there is a perfect correspondence of the Transport sector and the agreement with the given statement. In the Slovak Republic, agreement was found with the given statement in the Transport sector and neutral position in the Production sector.

Opis:: The article aims to identify and quantify significant economic factors that determine the quality of the business environment in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the transport and services segment. The case study was carried out on a sample of 258 companies in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Statistical methods, such as regression analysis and correlation analysis, were used to evaluate empirical data. These statistical methods test and verify several statistical hypotheses formulated. The results of the case study brought interesting findings. Findings showed the impact of the macroeconomic environment on the quality of the business environment. Conversely, monetary policy and interest rates, corporate finance, and population’s consumption do not affect the quality of the business environment in the transport and services segment. The results also represent an essential basis for organizations supporting the business environment or for state institutions in the creation of materials for improving services or transport in the selected countries.
Artykuł ma na celu identyfikację i kwantyfikację istotnych czynników ekonomicznych, które determinują jakość otoczenia biznesowego w małych i średnich przedsiębiorstwach (MŚP) w segmencie transportu i usług. Studium przypadku zostało przeprowadzone na próbie 258 firm w Czechach i na Słowacji. Do oceny danych empirycznych zastosowano metody statystyczne, takie jak analiza regresji i analiza korelacji. Te metody statystyczne testują i weryfikują kilka sformułowanych hipotez statystycznych. Wyniki studium przypadku przyniosły interesujące ustalenia. Wyniki pokazały wpływ otoczenia makroekonomicznego na jakość otoczenia biznesowego. I odwrotnie, polityka pieniężna i stopy procentowe, finanse przedsiębiorstw i konsumpcja ludności nie wpływają na jakość otoczenia biznesowego w segmencie transportu i usług. Wyniki stanowią również istotną podstawę dla organizacji wspierających otoczenie biznesu lub dla instytucji państwowych w tworzeniu materiałów do doskonalenia usług lub transportu w wybranych krajach.

Opis:: The management of the healthcare facilities is closely related to their evaluation. A very crucial point of this process is assigned to the patients who are the most important persons to assess the offered healthcare service. The aim of the paper is to evaluate the selected quality criteria of the healthcare provision in the healthcare facilities in the Slovak Republic. A territorial view is employed too in order to carry out the analytical process. The case mix index, the intensive care unit transfer ratio, the long-term rehospitalisation ratio, the mortality rate, and the operation mortality rate serve as the input dimensions for the processing the regression analysis for the sake of the construction of the regression models explaining the satisfaction of the patients whose evaluation comes from the public database altogether with the other explored dimension. The analysis outcome demonstrate that all these variables influence significantly the patient satisfaction and the ten districts of the Slovak Republic possess also statistical significance.
Zarządzanie placówkami służby zdrowia jest ściśle związane z ich oceną. Bardzo ważny punkt tego procesu przypisuje się pacjentom, którzy są najważniejszymi osobami w ocenie oferowanej opieki zdrowotnej. Celem artykułu jest ocena wybranych kryteriów jakości świadczenia opieki zdrowotnej w placówkach służby zdrowia na Słowacji. W celu przeprowadzenia procesu analitycznego stosuje się również perspektywę terytorialną. Wskaźnik mieszany przypadków, wskaźnik przeniesienia na oddział intensywnej terapii, wskaźnik rehospitalizacji długoterminowej, współczynnik umieralności i śmiertelność operacyjna służą jako wymiary wejściowe do przetwarzania analizy regresji na potrzeby konstrukcji modeli regresji wyjaśniających satysfakcja pacjentów, których ocena pochodzi z publicznej bazy danych wraz z innym badanym wymiarem. Wyniki analizy pokazują, że wszystkie te zmienne mają istotny wpływ na satysfakcję pacjentów, a dziesięć okręgów Republiki Słowackiej ma również znaczenie statystyczne.

Opis:: The study aims to define and present important factors affecting the quality of company management in the SMEs sector. Within the realized research, the authors focused on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Czech Republic and Slovak Republic. In the CR, the data from 454 companies were obtained, and from 368 companies in Slovakia. For data processing, chi-squared test and Z-score were used. The research results provided interesting findings. It has been found that entrepreneurs spend a lot of time doing their business activities, since about 70% of entrepreneurs in both countries confirmed that they spend more than 8 hours a day doing their business activities. On the other hand, the authors´ assumptions were not confirmed, as higher intensity in entrepreneurship had been expected. An interesting finding was that larger and older companies more intensively agreed with the statement ST1 - they work intensively in their business (management). About three quarters of the entrepreneurs interviewed stated that they apply the participative management style. Based on the results, it can be stated that larger companies, older companies, and university-educated entrepreneurs largely apply this management style. The research has shown that entrepreneurs greatly appreciate people in their enterprises, which is more clearly evident in older companies than in younger companies. A large proportion of entrepreneurs pay considerable attention to regular employee evaluation and try to motivate them to apply innovative workflows.
Badanie ma na celu zdefiniowanie i przedstawienie ważnych czynników wpływających na jakość zarządzania przedsiębiorstwem w sektorze MŚP. W ramach przeprowadzonych badań autorzy skupili się na małych i średnich przedsiębiorstwach (MŚP) w Czechach i na Słowacji. W CR uzyskano dane od 454 firm i od 368 firm na Słowacji. Do przetwarzania danych zastosowano test chi-kwadrat i Z-score. Wyniki badań dostarczyły interesujących wyników. Stwierdzono, że przedsiębiorcy spędzają dużo czasu na prowadzeniu działalności gospodarczej, ponieważ około 70% przedsiębiorców w obu krajach potwierdziło, że spędzają ponad 8 godzin dziennie na prowadzeniu działalności gospodarczej. Z drugiej strony założenia autorów nie zostały potwierdzone, ponieważ oczekiwano większej intensywności przedsiębiorczości. Ciekawym odkryciem było to, że większe i starsze firmy bardziej intensywnie zgadzały się ze stwierdzeniem ST1 - intensywnie pracują w swoim biznesie (zarządzaniu). Około trzy czwarte ankietowanych przedsiębiorców stwierdziło, że stosuje styl zarządzania partycypacyjnego. Na podstawie wyników można stwierdzić, że większe firmy, starsze firmy i przedsiębiorcy z wyższym wykształceniem w dużej mierze stosują ten styl zarządzania. Badanie wykazało, że przedsiębiorcy bardzo doceniają ludzi w swoich przedsiębiorstwach, co jest wyraźniejsze w starszych firmach niż w młodszych firmach. Duża część przedsiębiorców przywiązuje dużą wagę do regularnej oceny pracowników i stara się motywować ich do stosowania innowacyjnych przepływów pracy.

Opis:: Research background: SMEs represent an integral part of the economy environment in a majority of the countries all over the world. They signify the most efficient, progressive, and important part of the advanced economies. The long-term effort of the EU countries, as well as other advanced economies is to create quality and stable conditions for their development in order to be able to respond to all the possible changes in the business environment that is being changed to more and more comprehensive in the recent time. Purpose of the article: The objective of the contribution is to examine administrative and legislative obstacles to SMEs business in the Czech Republic and Slovakia and the quantification of the differences in perceiving legislative and administrative obstacles to business by entrepreneurs in both countries. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted within SMEs in the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 2019. The research sample included 641 SMEs, 312 from the Czech Republic and 329 from Slovakia. We focused on 5 dimensions related to legislative and administrative obstacles to SMEs business within which selected statements were examined. Contingency tables were used to analyze the ratios of the examined variables. Findings & Value added: The differences detected in both countries in the respondents´ perception and assessment are evidence of the changes in the business environment of both countries, giving rise to the questions about the extent to which the legislative and administrative obstacles, as well as the obstacles related to law enforcement and bureaucracy are acceptable and by which groups of entrepreneurs. The results of the research provide valuable findings for the creators of regional and national policies, and represent a valuable basis for the creation of the concepts focused on the SMEs´ development in both countries. The results of the study also support the implementation of follow-up research in this area that will reveal other determinants affecting the development of SMEs. They also create a valuable platform for the construction of national and international benchmarking indicators in this area and the implementation of comparative analyses. This will also support the methodological area necessary for a creation of high-quality concepts and strategies.

Opis:: Research background: The amount of the minimum wage is, in some sense, an indicator of the economic level of a country. There are considerable differences in this indicator between the countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). At the same time, the minimum wage is also an instrument that largely regulates people's behaviour and affects different areas of life. Purpose of the article: The objective of this study is to determine the relations between the minimum wage and individual smoking-related indicators in a sample of selected OECD countries (16 countries). The study answers the question of whether people in countries with lower minimum wages (lower development) smoke more than in countries with higher minimum wages. Methods: Four variables entered into the analytical processing, the minimum wage, daily smokers (age 15+), daily smokers (age 15-24) and tobacco consumption in grams per capita (age 15+). The data were collected between 2011 and 2017. The analysis was carried out in three steps ? descriptive analysis, cluster analysis and regression analysis. Findings & Value added: It has been found that the minimum wage negatively affects smoking and tobacco consumption, i.e. in developed countries, where the minimum wage is higher, people smoke less. Regarding the evaluation of minimum wage and tobacco consumption, countries such as Austria, New Zealand or the United States can be considered positive. On the other hand, opportunities for improvement can be seen in countries such as the Czech Republic, Spain, Estonia and Israel. The study highlights the importance of the effect of the minimum wage on selected smoking-related indicators in selected OECD countries. In all three cases, there was a negative relation; therefore, smoking can be expected to decrease, if the minimum wage is increased.

Opis:: The aim of our study was to identify the most important factors that shape the quality of the business environment and define the areas for improvement. As part of empirical research, we approached over 9,400 companies in the SMEs segment and obtained 329 applicable questionnaires. The research has shown that the biggest negative impact on the quality of the SMEs business environment is due to factors closely related to the public sector. We found that there were statistically significant differences in the opinions of entrepreneurs according to defined parameters. The results of our study can support the creation of a platform for decision-making mechanisms enabling the improvement of conditions for the development of business, stability and quality of the business environment in Slovakia. They will also support the development of national and international benchmarks in the area of SMEs development.
Celem naszego badania była identyfikacja najważniejszych czynników kształtujących jakość środowiska biznesowego i określenie obszarów wymagających poprawy. W ramach badań empirycznych skontaktowaliśmy się z ponad 9400 firmami z segmentu MŚP i uzyskaliśmy 329 odpowiednich kwestionariuszy. Badanie wykazało, że największy negatywny wpływ na jakość środowiska biznesowego MŚP mają czynniki ściśle związane z sektorem publicznym. Trybunał stwierdził, że istnieją istotne statystycznie różnice w opiniach przedsiębiorców według określonych parametrów. Wyniki naszego badania mogą pomóc w stworzeniu platformy mechanizmów decyzyjnych umożliwiającej poprawę warunków dla rozwoju biznesu, stabilności i jakości otoczenia biznesowego na Słowacji. Będą również wspierać rozwój krajowych i międzynarodowych poziomów odniesienia w obszarze rozwoju MŚP.

Opis:: Research background: Commercial banks could affect the stability of the whole banking system due to the way they carry out their business activities. The supervision authorities play a key role in protecting banking stability by ensuring banks´ resilience to shocks, ability to recover their position in response to crisis and ultimately the supervision authorities help prevent failure of these banks. Therefore, in recent years' researchers have been trying to define conditions that could guarantee stability of banks. Purpose of the article: This paper aims to describe the methodology used to measure banking stability, namely banking stability index (BSI) and Z-score. In the first part, we present the literature review, then we try to assess the stability in the condition of the Czech Republic and Slovakia during the period 2006-2016. Methods: The BSI is constructed according to the methodology presented by Ghosh (2011), taking into account the main components, which are described by the set of financial indicators of banks. Findings & Value added: Results showed that the average BSI in the whole sample moved from 0.20454 (in 2015) to 0.2486 (in 2007). The results according to countries have showed that the tendency of development in the Czech and Slovak banking sector was the same. At the beginning of the analyzed period, the Slovak banks were more stable compared to Czech ones. Since 2009 the situation has been different, where the Czech banks could be considered as more stable compared to Slovak ones. The tendency of development of Z-score in both countries could be considered as the same, without the 2009 year, when the Czech banks significantly strengthened their capitalization, which influenced the development of Z-score. The results of correlation analysis between Z-score and BSI pointed to the fact that there was no high correlation between these two measures, therefore it is appropriate to use both methodologies for stability evaluation.
