  ASPECTS OF THE INTERACTION AMONG FINANCIAL CONTROL INSTITUTIONS IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA

These are the Bulgarian National Audit Office, the Public Financial Inspection Agency, and the Internal Audit Directorate.

There are several control institutions in Bulgaria whose common subject is public finance. These are the Bulgarian National Audit Office, the Public Financial Inspection Agency, and the Internal Audit Directorate. The fact that these bodies have a common subject of control implies uniformity of the control they exercise as well as the establishment of certain interrelations among them and the coordination of the control procedures they apply. Surveys conducted so far indicate that despite the agreements which these control institutions have signed, there is rather weak cooperation among them in practice. In addition, the volume of information they exchange before initiating control operations is fairly small, which results in duplicating the activities performed in entities which are subject to control. Hence, the lack of coordination and interaction leads to increased costs of financial audit in the public sector and diminish its efficiency. It is therefore necessary to reorganize the communication among bodies engaged in public finance control.

  THE IMPORTANCE OF FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES IN A PHASE OF FINANCIAL UNCERTAINTY AND GLOBAL RECESSION

  The scale of the importance of financial derivatives can be judged by many indicators, including: extremely fast and versatile development; the sum of outstanding positions in derivatives, which transitory value exceeds from 6 to 10 times the gross annual production of all economies in the world; the attractive income opportunities and unique ... The scale of the importance of financial derivatives can be judged by many indicators, including: extremely fast and versatile development; the sum of outstanding positions in derivatives, which transitory value exceeds from 6 to 10 times the gross annual production of all economies in the world; the attractive income opportunities and unique techniques for risk management. In the same time, there are extreme opinions in which the financial derivatives are blamed for the global financial crisis and huge losses of various types of market players. The present study attempts to find and outline the real importance of financial derivatives for investment activity and global economy in the period from the beginning of financial crisis and the subsequent economic recession. Analyzed manifestations of financial derivatives in key events in recent years have shown their crucial role in „early diagnosing” of the global economic crisis, and their positive impact on capital market and indirect support to real economic sectors in a phase of recession. The methodology includes correlation study between derivatives, stock market and macroeconomic indicators.
