Vybrané problémy regulace finančních trhů

This thesis aims to provide the reader with an overview and understanding of arbitration proceedings and conclusion of arbitration agreements within the context of the Czech legal framework. Arbitration clauses in various forms are often an integral part of trade agreements but are also regularly included in consumer contracts such as loan or insurance agreements. The first part of the thesis provides a general overview of the financial market regulation which serves as the common framework allowing various legal entities to operate within the local market environment. The topic of regulation is discussed within the second section of the thesis which is structured into 4 stand-alone chapters. These chapters describe the institute of arbitration, its requisites and the various forms of arbitration agreements while also analyzing the changes of the statutory legal framework in the context of the current amendment which came into effect in April 2012. The analysis of the arbitration clauses is especially consumer-focused, searching to elaborate on questions such as what consequences can entering into an arbitration agreement have on a subject in a legal relationship, what are the obligations stemming from entering into such agreement and what are the options of withdrawing from such agreements.
