description: The Newmarket Till is a regional aquitard in southern Ontario that overlies the Illinoian to Middle Wisconsinan Lower Sediments and is overlain by the Oak Ridges Moraine (ORM). Geological investigations have mapped the distribution of the till and it is understood that erosional channels, subsequently infilled with fluvial material, breach the till and may create enhanced hydraulic connection between overlying and underlying aquifers. However, little is known about the protective capability of the Newmarket Till where it is intact. This study used natural tracers to assess the extent of transport in the aquitard-aquifer system. Stable isotopes of water (δ18O and δ2H) showed a depletion trend versus depth. In the Newmarket Till most of the samples had isotope ratios similar to meteoric water data from the nearest location (Egbert, ON). The depleted values of δ18O in the Thorncliffe Formation suggest a remnant signature of early-Holocene precipitation (-16‰ at the depth of 60 m). Elevated levels of NO3- and Cl- were detected near the surface and because of the low permeability aquitard (Newmarket Till), they could not migrate to depth. Total extractable ammonium concentrations are ranging from 4.09 ppm from near the surface to 60 ppm in the lowest part of the Newmarket and then gradually increase to 514 ppm in the bottom of the Thorncliffe Formation. The combination of high NH4+ values and organic carbon content in the Thorncliffe Formation suggests a natural source from mineralization of organic N. The fractionation which happened between δ15Nsediment and δ15N-NH4 may have three explanations: (1) lighter isotopes diffuse faster than heavier ones, so the higher rate of diffusion can cause fractionation; (2) heavier isotopes partition to exchange sites, causing fractionation along the transport pathway; (3) dissociation of NH4+ to NH3 under anaerobic condition. Positive values for δ13C in groundwater in the Thorncliffe Formation are likely due to i) a contribution of carbonate mineral dissolution, and ii) methanogenesis - the Archea favor the lighter isotope of C (12C). Methanogenesis, therefore, enriches the δ13C-DIC was enriched; however, the δ13C in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is depleted. These geochemical characteristics demonstrate a long residence time for the porewater in the system and indicate that the Newmarket till inhibits recharge of recent precipitation, thereby providing protection to the underlying aquifers from surface-derived contaminants.

description: The aggregation behaviors of two trisiloxane-tailed surface active ionic liquids in water have been investigated by coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics simulation on the basis of MARTINI force field. The new CG model is developed from the optimized molecule computed by using density functional theory. Direct comparison of angles and bonds obtained from all-atom (AA) simulations with those calculated from the CG model has been conducted to validate the latter model. Excellent agreement between AA and CG demonstrates that the potential of the new CG model can represent the complex system well. The long time CG simulation has been performed to understand the formation process of micelles when dissolving ionic liquids in water. Vesicles were observed at the final stage of the simulation and their partially truncated views and density profiles were obtained to describe the structure in detail.

description: Different dimensions of elongate mineral particles (EMP) have been proposed as being relevant to respiratory health end-points such as mesothelioma and lung cancer. In this article, a methodology for converting personal EMP exposures measured using the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) 7400/7402 methods to exposures based on other size-based definitions has been proposed and illustrated. Area monitoring for EMP in the taconite mines in Minnesota's Mesabi Iron Range was conducted using a Micro Orifice Uniform Deposit Impactor (MOUDI) size-fractionating sampler. EMP on stages of the MOUDI were counted and sized according to each EMP definition using an indirect-transfer transmission electron microscopy (ISO Method 13794). EMP were identified using energy-dispersive x-ray and electron diffraction analysis. Conversion factors between the EMP counts based on different definitions were estimated using (1) a linear regression model across all locations and (2) a location-specific ratio of the count based on each EMP definition to the NIOSH 7400/7402 count. The highest fractions of EMP concentrations were found for EMP that were 1−3 μm in length and 0.2–0.5 μm in width. Therefore, the current standard NIOSH Method 7400, which only counts EMP >5 μm in length and ≥ 3 in aspect ratio, may underestimate amphibole EMP exposures. At the same time, there was a high degree of correlation between the exposures estimated according to the different size-based metrics. Therefore, the various dimensional definitions probably do not result in different dose-response relationships in epidemiological analyses. Given the high degree of correlation between the various metrics, a result consistent with prior research, a more reasonable metric might be the measurement of all EMP irrespective of size.[Supplementary materials are available for this article.

description: Scutellariaprostrata (Lamiaceae), a perennial herb growing as a lonely species in Kashmir, Himalayas, was subjected to repetitive column and flash chromatographic isolation for its chemical documentation-cum-bioevaluation. The methanolic extract of S.prostrata afforded the isolation of ten compounds (1–10), including two new compounds – scutellapbiflavanone (1) and scutellaprostin M (2). The known compounds were found to be scutellarin (3), hispidulin-7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (4), baicalin (5), wogonoside (6), scutellaprostin C (7), acetoside (8), martynoside (9) and scutellaric acid-3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (10). Isolation of biflavonoids, phenolics and phenylethanoid compounds from S.prostrata seals a deal of chemotaxonomic importance of this particular species. The characterisation of the compounds was achieved by 1H, 13C, 1H–1H DFQ COSY, HMBC, HSQC, HMQC and ROESY NMR experiments. All the compounds were tested for antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities.

description: Defining 'software sustainability' in the context of research, and determining how best to support it, remains a considerable challenge. The research reported here approaches the question from a new direction by asking research software developers to provide their own experience of and opinions about sustainability.
Two main themes emerged from the study: intrinsic sustainability - concerned with aspects of the software itself - and extrinsic sustainability - concerned with the environment in which it is developed. A key finding is that developers consider sustainability is less at the level of the research project that funds it, and more at the level of the software artefact itself, and ensuring that the functionality it represents can be re-used in some capacity in the future. We propose recommendations to improve sustainability, focusing in particular on community building, improving software quality and increasing motivation.

description: L’entretien a été enregistré au Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Fès, un jour après l’accouchement d’une femme qui a mis au monde son deuxième enfant, un garçon. L’enquêtrice débute l’entretien avec des questions sur les expériences de l’allaitement et de l’accouchement. L’informatrice explique que sa seconde expérience de l’allaitement a été beaucoup moins douloureuse que la première. L’informatrice raconte qu’elle a allaité son premier enfant pendant un an et demi, en suivant un allaitement mixte (lait maternel et lait artificiel en biberon) et qu’elle souhaite allaiter son deuxième enfant pendant deux ans. La mère raconte que son accouchement, par voie basse, a été difficile et qu’elle a ressenti des douleurs, surtout les quinze premiers jours. L’enquêtrice pose ensuite des questions sur le colostrum. L’informatrice le distingue du lait par sa couleur jaunâtre et en raison de ses bienfaits plus important pour le bébé. Elle explique qu’à l’hôpital on lui a expliqué combien la prise de colostrum et du lait maternel était importante et bénéfique pour l’enfant parce qu’il le protège des maladies. A propos de la question sur la parenté de lait, l’informatrice déclare qu’elle est contre le co-allaitement et le don du colostrum à d’autres enfants. S’agissant des effets de la grossesse et de l’allaitement sur le corps de la femme, elle pense qu’ils sont négatifs. L’informatrice évoque ensuite sa consommation d’herbes qui favorisent la montée de lait. Elle pense que l’allaitement est le meilleur moyen pour nourrir un nouveau-né. Lorsque l’enquêtrice aborde le sujet de la sexualité, l’informatrice répond qu’il faut simplement éviter les rapports durant les quelques jours précédant l’accouchement. Enfin, elle explique la mortalité infantile par le manque d’attention des parents.

description: The anti-quorum sensing activities towards the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA01 (pyocyanin production, biofilm formation and twitching and flagella motility) of two crude extracts (methanol and acetone) of the freshwater sponge Ochridaspongia rotunda (Arndt, 1937) were evaluated in vitro for the first time. Both extracts demonstrated P. aeruginosa pyocyanin inhibitory activity, reducing its production for 49.90% and 42.44%, respectively. In addition, they both showed higher anti-biofilm activity (48.29% and 53.99%, respectively) than ampicillin (30.84%). Finally, O. rotunda extracts effectively reduced twitching and flagella motility of P. aeruginosa. Taken all together, these results suggest that endemic sponge species from the oldest lake in Europe may offer novel bioactive natural products with promising medicinal potential towards P. aeruginosa infections.

description: Three mononuclear cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes having dithiocarbamate ligands, [IrIII(2-C6H4py)2(L)] (where 2-C6H4py = 2-phenylpyridine; and L1H = 4-MePipzcdtH, L2H = MorphcdtH, and L3H = 4-BzPipercdtH for 1, 2, and 3, respectively), were synthesized from [Ir(2-C6H4py)2Cl]2·1/4CH2Cl2 by displacing the two bridging chlorides with one dithiocarbamate ligand. The complexes were characterized using physicochemical and spectroscopic tools along with structural analysis of [Ir(2-C6H4py)2(L2)] (2) by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural analysis of 2 showed a distorted octahedron in which the nitrogen donor of one 2-phenylpyridine and the carbon donor of another 2-phenylpyridine are in axial positions, trans to one another. Electrochemical analysis by cyclic voltammetry showed the irreversible two-electron equivalent reduction voltammograms of 1, 2, and 3 attributable to Ir(III) to Ir(I). Electronic characterizations of these complexes are consistent with significant delocalization of the sulfur electron density onto the empty metal d-orbital. The intercalative interaction of the complexes with calf thymus DNA was evaluated using absorption, fluorescence quenching, and viscosity measurements. The binding affinities of these complexes with bovine serum albumin were estimated in terms of quenching constants using the Stern–Volmer equation. Study of antibacterial activities of the complexes by agar disk diffusion against some species of pathogenic bacteria was also performed.

description: In this age of globalisation, there are significant numbers of people moving across the borders of nation-states. However, there are many people whose attempts to move are not welcomed by nation-states or who are temporarily welcomed and then encouraged to leave if they do not meet certain selection criteria for ‘desirable migrants’. In this thesis I ask, what are people’s experiences as they move into different countries and how do policies and practices affect the everyday experiences of people who wish to move and to resettle permanently in Australia? This thesis is the result of an institutional ethnographic (IE) study conducted among a diverse group of refugees and migrants resettling in Sydney. The fieldwork involved two principle ethnographic techniques: participant observations with over 100 refugees, migrants, community workers, volunteers, and members of multicultural community groups, and in-depth conversations with 20 people who entered Australia as refugees or migrants. The ethnographic techniques were combined with document analysis that argues for an understanding of how it has come to be that increasing numbers of people in Australia and around the world are experiencing long-term precarious lives as ‘non-citizens’. I have drawn predominantly on the work of Dorothy Smith and her understandings of the ruling relations coordinating people’s everyday worlds. Smith’s conceptual insights including her notion of social organisation, social relations, ruling relations, institution, and work have been usefully applied to develop an understanding of how the lives of ‘non-citizens’ are embedded and shaped by textually mediated social relations, which subject people to highly unequal pathways for accessing mobility and achieving citizenship status in society. These IE insights have been combined with Thomas Nail’s recent political theory of the migrant, kinopolitics, to conceptualise how people’s movements through regimes of social motion coordinate them into doing deeply embodied kinds of labour, which I call ‘mobility-work’ and ‘resettlement-work’. I argue that the current ways that nation-states like Australia approach human mobility and the methods used to determine if a person has a ‘legitimate’ right to be within the territorial space of the nation-state and to be counted as a member (that is, a citizen) in society, sits in deep tension with the ideals of universal human rights and democratic principles.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: To establish proof of concept of a student-led, telepractice-delivered communication partner training towards enhancing communication between people with aphasia and their informal caregivers in everyday conversations. Two dyads were recruited, each consisting of a person with aphasia and their caregiver. A pre-training questionnaire was completed by caregivers, followed by a weekly communication training session delivered by graduate student clinicians via telepractice to each dyad over 12 weeks. The caregivers then completed a post-training questionnaire. Both questionnaires included 13 Likert-scale questions and one open-ended question requiring an extended response. Pre- to post-training improvements for both dyads were identified on two domains of the questionnaire: (a) frustrations of the caregiver and person with aphasia and (b) caregivers’ knowledge and confidence in using communication strategies. This quantitative data was supported by additional extended responses regarding informal caregivers’ current communication strategies when communicating with the person with aphasia. Both informal caregivers reported integrating communication strategies learned as part of the training in their interactions with the person with aphasia and experiencing fewer communication breakdowns during the two weeks following the training. The pilot study offers proof of concept for incorporating telepractice-delivered caregiver communication training as part of aphasia rehabilitation.

The nature of Hungarian spin-off enterprises

description: During the past decade, the competitiveness and economic growth of the of the EU fell significantly below the level of its greatest economic competitor, the USA (EC [2004]). In the meanwhile, the Far-Eastern global economic region performed variously, mostly influenced by the economic performance of the two other major global economic blocks. So the EU announced to make efforts to increase its pace of growth and he level of employment, especially focusing on supporting innovation (EC [2000]). Though the integration of the economic systems has been going on for decades (the Economic and Monetary Union), its effects fell far behind the expected level. However another factor emerged from the economic reality: the so called European Paradox (Cresson-Bangemann [1995]). , according to whichthe results of RTDI activities are a lot less utilized than in the USA, despite the large number of excellent European results published. One of the main causes of this phenomenon could be, that the innovation system in the EU is more in the state sector. And presumably this is responsible for a significant part of the missing European economic growth. Mapping the innovation system, scholars identified an important element of the knowledge utilization processes: the spin-off enterprise. EU policy makers decided to promote their operation by constructing a suitable legal environment for their existence, and help their creation and operation by other possible means. However for this cause, the situation needed to be surveyed. The European Commission supported the work of a research consortium on the INDICOM project, which conducted an international survey of high-tech spin-off enterprises and the technology transfer organizations (TTOs), which “gave birth” to them. These results will be analyzed in this present article.

Teaching of entrepreneurship programs to Confucian heritage cultural background students

description: The significant growth in one knowledge-driven service industry, ie tertiary education, has resulted in Universities seeking international students not only for financial awards but also to bring in a diversity of norms and cultures to enrich the learning experience. The increase in migration from Asian countries as per Legat (1996) in the mid-nineties, has resulted in non- English speaking background (NESB) students entering Tertiary Institutes in large numbers, more so in the Australian and New Zealand market. This trend continues with more international fee paying students (Sarkodie-Mensah, 1998). More than 75,000 foreign students studied in New Zealand last year, earning the country $2.5 billion and making education the fourth-largest export earner. Nearly 80% of all foreign fee paying students are from Asia and as described by Biggs (1996) of Confucian Heritage Culture (CHC). At Unitec in Auckland, more than 60% of the students enrolled in the Business Faculty are international students. With this dramatic increase in our classrooms of international students, the challenge for educational institutions and teachers is to be able to adopt innovative teaching strategies that meets the legitimate needs and expectations of this group of international CHC students. This is even more so pronounced in the entrepreneurial programs at Unitec like the Bachelors (BBIE) and Master of Business in Innovation and Entrepreneurship (MBIE), because as social scientists have postulated (Weber, 1964), Confucianism is hostile to entrepreneurship. Schaper and Volery (2004) highlight factors that are most commonly cited for entrepreneurship to occur, being an individual, an act, an organization and innovation. International students with a CHC background belong to collectivist societies (Hofstede, 1991) where personal relationships and contacts, the much cherished

description: Governments of many persuasions are becoming aware that the establishment of appropriate policy settings can promote entrepreneurial behaviours and cultures that in turn impact on economic activity, societal wealth and positive cultural adaptations. Governments who establish entrepreneurial policies do so in the belief that the future of their constituents will be improved by their actions. Entrepreneurship policy therefore is an outcome of the exercise of foresight.

description: Background Primary splenic abscess is rare and typically presents in patients who are immunocompromised. We present a case of a 47-year-old apparently immunocompetent female patient who was diagnosed with primary splenic abscess from a Salmonella Typhimurium infection following emergency laparotomy. Case presentation A 47-year-old female patient presented with subjective fever and severe epigastric and left fank pain. She was treated empirically with intravenous piperacillin/tazobactam and gentamicin and was resuscitated with intravenous crystalloid infusion. A radiological diagnosis of splenic infarct secondary to splenic artery aneurysm superimposed with splenic abscess was presumed, however at emergency laparotomy, primary splenic abscess was identified. This abscess had eroded the left hemidiaphragm and had ruptured the splenic capsule leading to intra-abdominal pus in the pelvis which on culture grew Salmonella Typhimurium. A splenectomy and primary repair of the left hemidiaphragm were performed, with postoperative pancreatitis diagnosed following the procedure. After intensive care treatment, this patient made a full recovery. Conclusion This case of primary splenic abscess was treated successfully with a combination of surgery (i.e.: splenectomy and surgical drainage), prolonged antimicrobial therapy, and intensive care in the perioperative period

description: Hybrid exoskeletons are a recent development which combine Functional Electrical Stimulation with actuators to improve both the mental and physical rehabilitation of stroke patients. Hybrid exoskeletons have been shown capable of reducing the weight of the actuator and improving movement precision compared to Functional Electrical Stimulation alone. However little attention has been given towards the ability of hybrid exoskeletons to reduce and manage Functional Electrical Stimulation induced fatigue or towards adapting to user ability. This work details the construction and testing of a novel assist-as-need upper-extremity hybrid exoskeleton which uses model-based Functional Electrical Stimulation control to delay Functional Electrical Stimulation induced muscle fatigue. The hybrid control is compared with Functional Electrical Stimulation only control on a healthy subject.

description: Magnaporthe oryzae is the causal agent of blast disease, which infects >50 grass species including agronomically important crops such as rice and wheat. During infection, M. oryzae secretes Magnaporthe effector proteins (MEPs), whose presence/absence determines host susceptibility. While MEP genes are sequence-diverse, homology to more characterised proteins can be found at the structural level. This can help guide functional characterisation of MEPs, allowing for a better understanding of their individual roles during  the pathogenesis process and elucidate new targets for plant immunity engineering.

description: In the context of flow-induced vibration, the component of the hydrodynamic coefficient in-phase with the velocity of an oscillating body, Cv, can be termed "positive excitation" or "negative damping" if Cv > 0. While this empirical approach is of long standing in the literature it does not account for distinct physical mechanisms that can be associated with fluid excitation and fluid damping. In this work, we decompose the total hydrodynamic force into a drag component aligned with the time-dependent vector of the relative velocity of a cylinder oscillating transversely with respect to a free stream and a lift component normal to the drag component. The drag and lift components are calculated from laboratory measurements of the components of the hydrodynamic force in the streamwise and cross-stream directions combined with simultaneous measurements of the displacement of an elastically mounted rigid circular cylinder undergoing vortex-induced vibration. It is shown that the drag component only does negative work on the oscillating cylinder, i.e., it is a purely damping force as expected from theoretical considerations. In contrast to this the lift component mostly does positive work on an oscillating cylinder, i.e., it is the sole component providing fluid excitation. In addition, the new excitation (lift) coefficient, CL displays the same scaling as the linear theory predicts for the traditional excitation coefficient, Cv, even though CL is two orders of magnitude higher than Cv. More importantly, while Cv depends on the mechanical properties of the hydro-elastic system, according to linear theory, we provide here evidence that CL depends solely on fluid-dynamical parameters. Finally, an effective drag is calculated that represents the dissipation of energy within the fluid, and it is found that the effective drag is not equal to the mean value of the drag component. The effective drag provides complementary information that characterizes the state of the wake flow. Its variation suggests that the wake can dissipate the kinetic energy most vigorously at the end of the initial branch.

description: Σκοπός της διατριβής ήταν η διερεύνηση του ενδοκλαδικού εμπορίου αγροδιατροφικών προϊόντων στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση. Για την μελέτη αυτή, επιλέχθηκε να αναλυθούν οι προσδιοριστικοί παράγοντες του ενδοκλαδικού εμπορίου. Για τo σκοπό της μελέτης αυτής, χρησιμοποιήθηκε ένα σύνολο αγροδιατροφικών προϊόντων σε 4ψήφιο επίπεδο (4-digit), σύμφωνα με τον SITC, καλύπτοντας τη χρονική περίοδο 1999-2021 για τα 28 κράτη μέλη της ΕΕ. Για την οικονομετρική ανάλυση, χρησιμοποιήθηκαν μεθοδολογίες τύπου πάνελ, και πιο συγκεκριμένα οι μεθοδολογίες της Pooled OLS, σταθερών επιδράσεων ή τυχαίων επιδράσεων. Προς απλούστευση της ανάλυσης, τα προϊόντα κατηγοριοποιήθηκαν σε 13 κατηγορίες με βάση τα χαρακτηριστικά τους. Τα αποτελέσματα της οικονομετρικής ανάλυσης, στις περισσότερες περιπτώσεις, επαλήθευσαν τις οικονομικές θεωρία. Η μελέτη ολοκληρώθηκε με ανάλυση ανά χώρα για την παροχή συμπληρωματικών πληροφοριών, καθώς η οικονομετρική ανάλυση πραγματοποιήθηκε ανά κατηγορία προϊόντων. Το τελικό πόρισμα της εργασίας είναι ότι είναι αδύνατο να εξαχθεί ένα αυστηρό συμπέρασμα σχετικά με το ποιοι προσδιοριστικοί παράγοντες επηρεάζουν το ενδοκλαδικό εμπόριο αγροδιατροφικών προϊόντων μεταξύ των κρατών μελών της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης. Κάθε χώρα/προϊόν φαίνεται να έχει ένα ξεχωριστό μοτίβο ενδοκλαδικού εμπορίου. Το μόνο ξεκάθαρο συμπέρασμα που μπορεί να εξαχθεί είναι ότι το ενδοκλαδικό εμπόριο των χωρών επωφελήθηκε από την είσοδο τους στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση και την εξάλειψη των μέτρων δασμολογικού και μη δασμολογικού χαρακτήρα
description: The aim of the present thesis is the investigation of intra-industry trade of agrifood products in the European Union. To examine this, it was chosen to analyse the determinants of intra-industry trade. For this purpose, a set of agrifood products on 4-digit level, according to SITC, was used, covering the time period 1999-2021 for the 28 EU Member State. A panel econometric analysis, and more specifically the methodologies of Pooled OLS, Fixed Effects or Random Effects Models was used. To facilitate the analysis, products were categorised into 13 categories based on their characteristics. Econometric analysis results, in most cases, verified economic theory. Τhe study was completed with a country-by-country analysis to provide complementary insights, as the econometric analysis was carried out by product category. The thesis' overall finding is that it is impossible to draw a strict conclusion about how many distinct factors influence intra-industry trade of agrifood products among the European Union Member States. Every country/product seem to have a distinct intra-industry trade pattern. The only absolute conclusion that can be made is that the countries' intra-industry trade has benefited from their membership in the European Union and their external trade's immunity from tariff and non-tariff measures

description: Σκοπός της διπλωματικής εργασίας ήταν η μελέτη ζητημάτων ενδοομιλικής εξασφάλισης, χρηματοδότησης και διαχείρισης ταμειακής ρευστότητας. Εκκινήσαμε από την εξέταση της οικονομικής και νομικής διάρθρωση των ομίλων δίνοντας ιδιαίτερη βάση στην έννοια του ομιλικού συμφέροντος όπως γίνεται αντιληπτή τόσο σε εθνικό όσο και σε διεθνές επίπεδο καθώς και στην σημασία σύνταξης ενοποιημένων χρηματοοικονομικών καταστάσεων σε επίπεδο μητρικής εταιρείας του ομίλου. Στη συνέχεια, παρουσιάστηκε η δήλωση πατρωνίας ως είδος ενδοομιλικής εξασφάλισης και τα ενδοομιλικά δάνεια και ταμειακές διευκολύνσεις ως μέσα χρηματοδότησης των εταιριών του ομίλου. Δόθηκε μάλιστα ιδιαίτερη βαρύτητα τόσο σε ζητήματα εταιρικού δικαίου όσο και φορολογίας και τελών χαρτοσήμου που ανακύπτουν. Ακόμα εξετάσθηκε εκτενώς το φαινόμενο ταμειακής διαχείρισης γνωστό διεθνώς ως cashpooling και οι σχετικές διακρίσεις του αναλόγως του τρόπου λειτουργίας του. Τέλος αναφερθήκαμε σε ζητήματα σύγκρουσης συμφερόντων των συνδεδεμένων επιχειρήσεων στις εξετασθείσες στην παρούσα εργασία ενδοομιλικές συναλλαγές εν συναρτήσει με το ζήτημα ευθύνης των μελών Δ.Σ. στο πλαίσιο σύναψης των τελευταίων
description: The purpose of the present thesis was to study issues of intra-group collateral, financing and cash management. We examined the financial and legal structure of groups, paying particular attention to the concept of Group’s interest as perceived on a national and international level and the importance of preparing consolidated financial statements at the level of the Group’s holding company. Subsequently, the patronage statement as a type of intragroup collateral and intragroup loans and cash facilities as intra-group financing instruments were presented. Particular attention was given to both business and tax issues that arise. The phenomenon of intra Group cash management practice known internationally as cashpooling and its types depending on the way its operation were also examined in detail. Finally, we referred to issues of conflict of affiliated companies’ interests in the examined intra-group transactions in connection with the liability issues of board members in terms of the intra-group transactions’ conclusion
