Adam Smith a great Scottish economist

Economics as a social science may be divided into two main theoretical schools : classical and neo-classical.

The founder of the classical school was Adam Smith, Scottish philosopher and economist of the 18th century. He became famous because of this main book “Inquiry into the Nature and Cause of the Wealth of Nations” (1776) where he emphasized the benefits of specialization and exchange. His contention was that the right goods and services were produced if producers were free to seek profits and then the “invisible hand” of market forces would ensure that the decision was correct. Markets providing this policy remained free of government regulation. The production of goods and services were dictated by what buyers wanted. It was based of competition which ensured it. The doctrine of Adam Smith is still regarded as the main study of economics. It sets out the basic principles of free enterprise economy where the prices are determined by supply and demand. It is regarded as the basic for the theory of economic liberalism. The adoption of the market by most of the former Communist states has added to current interest in the theories of Adam Smith.

The main characteristic of this system is that economic decision making is highly decentralized. The resources are allocated through a large number of individual markets for goods and services. The buyers and producers are brought together. The market itself establishes prices for goods and suitable profit rewards for suppliers. It also determines the amount of product to be produced and sold. All the inefficiencies and rigidities usually associated with state bureaucracy are highlighted by the proponents of command economics. It is pointed out that in a market economy competition acts as an important spur to efficiency. It encourages to lower prices and the better goods and services.

Advocates of this system emphasize its benefits. They say that the allocation of resources is unified, the wastes of duplication inherited in competition are avoided. But in the late 1980s the planned economics has been totally discredited.

Mixed economics

In a mixed economy there are two parts which goods are services. One is in the hands of the state, for example, medical care, education, while others are in the hands of private enterprises. This combination of private enterprises and state activities is typical for many countries, it is influenced by the policy of the government. This variant of economics can be found in Britain, France and other countries of the European Community where the programs of privatization have been adopted. The “free market” economy and the mixed economy prevail after the collapse of the command economics of the countries of the former Soviet bloc.

Unit III

Financial institutions and Markets

I. Read the text and translate one of them in written form.

Financial institutions can be classified into deposit-taking an longer-term saving institutions.

1.  Types of Deposit taking institution

Deposited taking institutions comprise the following types of banks: commercial saving, merchant; building societies ( in the USA they are called as saving and loan societies); finance houses. They all rely on deposits from individuals and businesses for their funds. They pay interests on deposits and make a profit on their operations by lending out money or buying securities at higher rates or interests.

2.  Banks

The commercial banks provide a money-transmission service for their depositors, such reducing changes and paying standing orders. They are involved in all three categories of short-term finance as well as mortgage finance.

Saving banks invest most of his funds in loan and share capital and government stocks;

Merchant banks specialize in business loans and “underwrite” new share issues on the stock market. They can buy up shares that are not sold on the open market.

3.  Other types deposit-taking institutions

Building societies specialize in mortgage finance, for instance loans for buying houses or lands etc. Finance houses deal with installment loans (hire purchase) and leasing ( i. e. buying business assets such as machinery and cars, which are then hired out to companies.)

4.  Longer-term savings institutions

They are pension funds, insurance companies, unit trust and investment trust companies.

Pension funds are institution that collect all personal savings from contributors and provide them with pension payments in their retirement.

Insurance companies collect funds from individuals and businesses on a long-term basis. They also provide insurance to cover loss of life and injury or to cover personal and business property against loss or damage.

Unite trusts and investment trust companies are institutions that issue “units” and shares for purchase by small investors.

5. The Financial markets

The financial markets comprise two main channels for bringing together borrowers & lends, sabers and investors: the money market and the stock market.

The money market deals in short-term financial securities (bills of exchange and Treasury bills) and inter-bank loans. The stock market deals mainly in company stocks and shares and government stocks. It performs two main functions: It provides a “new-issue” market for companies and the government to raise capital by the sale of new stocks and shares. It also provides a secondary market for the day-to-day buying and selling of existing stocks and shares.

Shares provide a permanent source of finance for the company to exist. The shareholders of a company are its legal owners. They are entitled to a share in its profits.

The grown of multinational companies and finantional institutions led to an opening-up of stock markets around the world. It also led to a greater independence between them. Nowadays shares can be traded simultaneously across stock markets in New-York, London and Tokyo. New satellite and computerized communication systems are used for transmission.
