Vi har i detta arbete funnit att räntorna är de oberoende variabler som har inverkan på obligationsFondernas NAV-kurser. Vi fann dock inga samband mellan makrovariablerna och NAV-kurserna, men tidigare forskning tyder på att dessa är diskonterade i räntan och därmed indirekt påverkar kursernas utveckling. Mer handgripligt fann vi att de 4- och 5-åriga svenska statsobligationsräntorna påverkade de medellånga Fonderna, medan de 5-, 8- samt 10-åriga statsobligationsräntorna hade högst inverkan på de långa Fonderna. I den konstruerade modellen har vi lyckats att ge ett förklaringsvärde för det sista och femte årets NAV-kursutveckling med 94,6 procent för de medellånga Fonderna samt 96,9 procent för de långa Fonderna..

Syftet med denna uppsats är att göra en kvalitativ och komparativ studie genom att närläsa några appar på ett givet tema. Detta har jag gjort med stöd av bilderboksforskning. Jag har valt att se närmare på ABC-appar utifrån att de är designade med en pedagogisk intention.Jag visar genom studien, på ett av många sätt, att se på och förhålla sig till appar. Utifrån ett sociokulturellt perspektiv belyser jag det estetiska begreppet smak, vilket jag ser som en betydelsefull Fond till min studie, eftersom jag anser att smak påverkar förväntningen och därmed upplevelsen. Min strävan är att hålla ett kritiskt barnperspektiv, det vill säga att genomlysa de föreställningar om barndom som tas för giv, eftersom barn är en målgrupp för kommersiella intressen..

Purpose:        The intention of this study is to distinguish if there is a correlation between mutual funds administration fee and their return. The study will also observe if there is a difference regarding the return between active and passive management fees.Method:        The study is founded on a deductive approach because the study is based on existing theories. Quantitative research based on statistical data has been used. A correlation analysis has been applied to determine if there is a correlation between the chosen variables.Conclusion:   The conclusion of the study is that active management of funds mainly do not give a higher return than passive management funds. Neither is the administration fee dependent on the risk a fund has..

This paper aims to explore the reception in Sweden of the work and ideas of neuroscientist Antonio R Damasio, expressed in his four published books. The material used is mainly articled and reviews published in Sweden between 1995 and 2011 regarding Damasio?s books. To analyze the reception, paradigm theories by Kuhn, and Bourdieu?s ideas regarding field, habitus and capital has been used.

This paper examines what affects the demand for five Swedish ethical funds between the years 1997-2007. The purpose of this study is to examine if there is a relation between fund value and other values than just financial. This study examines if the number of conflicts in the world and the media?s coverage of the climate change debate could have an impact on the demand for ethical fund. A multiple linear regression shows that we don?t have a significant result from the examined variables except for household wealth.

Svenska Fondsparare intresserar sig alltmer för olika tillväxtmarknader. Årligen investeras sju procent av det svenska Fondsparandet i ÖsteuropaFonder, där Ryssland är den största marknaden. Denna studie syftar till att utvärdera RysslandsFonder som är öppna för svenska småsparare med hjälp av CAPM, samt prestationsmåtten Jensens alfa, Sharpe- och Treynorkvoten. Studien omfattar 12 Fonder under perioden 2007-2010 där daglig NAV-kursdata använts. Analysen är uppdelad där studien i period 1 analyserar hela perioden och i period 2 analyserar den andra halvan då 2008 års finanskris börspåverkan har minimerats.

This thesis is an investigation of Iranian immigrants and their use of libraries in Sweden. It isbased on a combination of a qualitative and a·quantitative method.Using a qualitative method, I give an outline of the history of lran from ancient times up to the present, as well as the different ethnological groups in Iran and their cultures. The main objective of this part is to clarify the contrasts between Iranian and Swedish cultural, social, linguistic and family structures, and also the characteristics of the crisis that most immigrants go through on their arrival in the new country. The qualitative method also involves structured telephone interviews with eight highly educated Iranians.This method was supplemented by a quantitative study through questionnaires of the attitudes· of lranian immigrants to libraries and reading. Iranians in Sweden turned out to be frequent Iibrary users.

This paper investigates the possibilities to construct automatized portfolios based on optimizations strategies that could outperform comparable indexes. The study is based on time-series of Swedish stocks dating from 1986 to 2006. In the research four different portfolio optimization techniques were studied. These were: the Classical Markowitz Approach, Mean-Absolute-Deviation, Minimum-Regret and Conditional Value-at-Risk of which the three latter are based on generated scenarios. The behaviour of these models was studied for different choices of parameters such as backward time-horizon and targeted average return.

Vårt syfte med uppsatsen är att undersöka om det empiriskt går att påvisa lönsamhet i det nya pensionssystemet dvs. premiepensionen. Med andra ord vill vi undersöka lönsamheten med ett aktivt pensionssparande enligt ekonomisk vedertagen teori. Undersökningsdata omfattar samtliga 854 pensionsFonder som funnits från starten 2000-11-02 till 2004-12-30. Vi har utifrån historisk data tagit fram den lägsta variansFonden för att använda den som riskfri Fond i Sharpekvoten.
