“…Financial risks are controlled due to the structure and costs of borrowed funds, taking into account the forecast changes in the exchange rate (for example, if the exchange rate decreases critically, production volumes will decrease [15]). In addition, there are expenses for covering the deficit of working capital.…”

The article studies difficulties and features of providing loans to agro-industrial enterprises. For all subjects of the market sector, in order to carry out a financial and economic analysis of their activities, there is a special accounting procedure. The authors identified stages of monitoring and provided examples of four legal entities to evaluate the activities of borrowers. The results are presented as examples of reflection of individual articles reporting on the activities of subjects of the agro-industrial industry. Special attention should be paid to the qualitative risk analysis; the authors have developed a risk structure for the activities of agro-industrial enterprises, which reflects their specific features, the level of significance of risk impacts, and the likelihood of occurrence. An analysis of the risk structure allows us to find ways to manage risks.

“…Brockmeier & Pelikan (2008) reveals that the heights of the agricultural tariff cuts and the kind of tiered formula applied are most important for the outcome of the Doha Round. While manufacturing protection has declined worldwide following substantial reforms of trade policies, most industrial countries still protect agriculture at high level (Aksoy & Beghin 2005, p. 1).…”

Although it is often argued that liberalization provides opportunities for growth and development in all over the world, there are divergent views about the effects of agricultural trade liberalization on growth and income distribution in developing countries. The developing countries' main complaint in this regard is that trade distorting activities in agriculture by developed countries adversely affecting their exports and consequently growth, and income and employment of the people therein. There is a general perception among the policymakers and academia that the developing countries would gain much from the removal of existing distortion in the agricultural market because of the tremendous importance of the agricultural sector in their economies. The current paper has analyzed the effect of trade liberalization in agriculture on welfare, growth and income distribution in developing countries, using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model and indicates that the effect is not similar for all the developing countries.

“…This module starts in 2001 which is the base year of the GTAP database, and runs through 2014, where we assume the WTO members will start to implement the by then agreed upon WTO-commitments. More information on the implemented model extensions can be found in Brockmeier and Pelikan (2008).…”

"We use two alternative approaches to analyze the trade restrictiveness of the Canadian and EU import tariff structures for agricultural goods. The first involves direct, detailed calculations at the tariff line level of summary protection indexes. We compare the newer method of welfare and import equivalent indexes to the standard trade weighted method of aggregation. The second approach involves indirect index calculations, where we map tariff data into a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model, and then use the model to generate the summary. Each approach has its advantages. The direct tariff line approach reflects sector detail more comprehensively, but misses the sector and regional linkages captured by the CGE model. As an empirical illustration we simulate the impact of market access liberalization proposed in the WTO draft modality paper of February 2008. Pursuant to a tiered formula, we reduce bound and applied tariffs at the 6-digit tariff line level. We find that the direct tariff line approach and the hybrid tariff line CGE approach yield similar results. These indicate that access to Canada's agricultural sector is particularly restricted for milk imports from high-income countries. In contrast, developing countries have particular difficulty accessing the EU's Single Market, where high trade restrictions on beef, sugar, and rice are most relevant."
