      Dudek, Hanna; Orłowski, Arkadiusz (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2006)
      Problem of clustering of European countries with respect to food consumption is considered. Data related to average yearly per capita consumption of 14 main categories of food products in 39 countries are collected and ...
    • Comparison of Selected Criteria for Determination of the Measure of Depth of an Observation in a Two-dimensional Sample 

      Kobylińska, Małgorzata (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2006)
      The measure of observation depth in multidimensional samples, introduced into statistical practice by Tukey, has become a new tool for data analysis. It is a proposed method for determining multi-dimensional positional ...
    • Credit Swaps as Instruments Securing from the Risk 

      Szczukocka, Agata (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2006)
      The interest in the problem of credit risk has significantly increased within the last few dozen years. Scientific literature presents a lot of methods of the credit risk limitation whereas banks try, with various results, ...
    • Evaluation of the Degree of Integration among European Insurance Markets 

      Jurkiewicz, Tomasz; Wycinka, Ewa (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2006)
      The insurance internal market has existed since 1993 (enforced by the third life directive). Its’ main features are a common framework to allow insurers to operate throughout the EU and to establish and provide services ...
