Annotation
The dissertation examines corporate performance in conditions characterized by non-market exogenous interventions – state aid or drawing of EU funds. Although the objectives of the two policies are different, they both have a redistributive effect. To achieve the policy objectives, there is support for projects and their beneficiaries that the market would not finance. The dissertation should answer the question of the consequences for companies that participate in similar schemes regarding their performance, sustainability, and efficiency. In the thesis, bulk data from European databases is expected to be processed. In the case of Slovakia, available data from the Antimonopoly Office, the Register of Financial Statements, and the Commercial Register will be used.
