“…Buffer capacity is directly influenced by endowments and entitlements. Endowments determine the resources owned by an actor, while entitlements refer to an actor's access to resources (Speranza et al, 2014, Ozkan andSchott 2013). Hence, buffer capacity, endowments and entitlements are important aspects for local resilience, particularly for communities with limited economic resources that are dependent on individual decisions regarding the trading of such entitlements (Dale and Newman 2006).…”

“…Mobility and highly individualised life scripts are common, not only in Iceland. A downward spiral caused by the loss of youngsters can be set in motion, which in return can negatively affect the social fabric and social cohesion of a community (Dale and Newman 2006, Duhaime et al 2004, Ozkan and Schott 2013, Chan et al, 2006, Adger 2000. For Hovgaard et al (2004), one of the reasons for extended outmigration in Nordic villages is changing social values.…”

Icelandic fish stocks underwent privatisation in 1990, when existing fishing quotas were made fully transferable. The country's system of individual transferable quotas has since been held up as a paragon of virtue for sustainable fisheries. This might be valid for ecological and most economic concerns, but for a truly sustainable fisheries management system the question of social impacts has to be addressed as well. This paper evaluates the performance of Icelandic fisheries management from a spatial and social point of view. The theoretical framing stems from the concepts of resilience and vulnerability. Through cluster and correlation analyses, different development trajectories of Icelandic fishing communities since 1990 are revealed. The results are presented on maps. Even though it is no longer the country's largest economic sector, the livelihood of many small and remote settlements is strongly connected to the fisheries. Consolidation has taken place in the fisheries and rural-to-urban migration has continued. The majority of coastal communities can be classified as vulnerable, regarding the status of the local fishing industry in 2014. Regarding demographic development, the number of vulnerable communities was significantly higher in 2014 than it was at the early 1990s.

Investment and financial policy of companies facilitate getting additional resources for financing and strengthen their financial status. Various methods have been developed so far, and there are a lot of financial coefficients by which one can evaluate and mark not only financial but also industrial potential of companies. But every region of the Russian Federation and every industry have specificities that are very difficult to take into account in defining regulatory meaning of financial indicators. That is why, the authors suggest forming a single financial indicator, and they have analyzed some companies of the oil and gas sector of Tomsk region. In the authors' viewpoint, the consolidated financial indicator allows assessing and analysing comprehensively the level of competitiveness of business entities. The obtained rating revealed that the first places belong to truly successful companies, which in fact undertake managing activity. The last places belong to the companies that do not manufacture goods, do not have any managerial and production expenditures. In this connection, the subsequent study and construction of an optimum business strategy is possible based on the constructed rating and comprehensive study of the leaders. The knowledge of factors, influencing the functioning of the organisation negatively, allows the agents of management to elaborate managerial decisions, correcting the managerial process. The number of taken corrective managerial decisions depends on the quality of managerial decisions made, which will lead to the change in the company's position in the composite rating.

Ozkan and Schott (2013) focused on the problem of integration of collective and individual assets for the human development in the Arctic.…”
