Asta Raupelienė ISSN 1822-3230 / eISSN 2345-0916 eISBN 978-609-449-128-3 Article DOI: http://doi.org/10.15544/RD.2017.161 APPLICATION OF SYNTHETIC TAXONOMIC MEASURE TMAI FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF INVESTMENT ATTRACTIVENESS OF THE SELECTED FOOD INDUSTRY COMPANIES LISTED ON THE WARSAW STOCK EXCHANGE IN THE YEARS 2013 – 2016 Monika ZIELIŃSKA-SITKIEWICZ, Faculty of Applied Informatics and Mathematics, Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW, Ul. Nowoursynowska 166, 02-787 Warsaw, Poland, [email protected] (corresponding author) Mariola CHRZANOWSKA, Faculty of Applied Informatics and Mathematics, Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW, Ul. Nowoursynowska 166, 02-787 Warsaw, Poland, [email protected] The food sector is one of the most important and fastest growing branches of the Polish economy. It employs almost 15% of all employees employed in the industry. Polish manufacturers are characterised by high competitiveness both in the EU and in the world. The macroeconomic environment in recent years has been relatively stable for the development of the food industry production in Poland, but the dynamics of agricultural-food products has experienced a slight slowdown. There were also fluctuations in profitability ratios in the sector, which may have been somewhat alarming for the investors. The article attempted to evaluate the investment attractiveness of 24 joint stock companies in the food sector, representing various industries, listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The Taxonomic Measure of the Attractiveness of Investments (TMAI) and the company rankings were created for the years 2013 – 2016. The results showed that the Wawel and Astarta companies were at the top of the rankings in the studied years, representing the confectionery and the sugar sector, and the Żywiec company from the beer industry.

    ECONOMICS DOI: 10.22616/rrd.25.2019.056 BALANCED SCORECARD FOR SELECTED CONFECTIONERY COMPANIES LISTED ON THE WARSAW STOCK EXCHANGE IN POLAND Elżbieta Jaworska, Bożena Nadolna West Pomeranian University of Technology Szczecin, Poland [email protected] Abstract Business managers report the need for modern methods to improve the implementation of organizational strategies. Translating the strategy into activities and monitoring its implementation poses a serious challenge for the management of modern enterprises. The article aims to present proposals for multidimensional performance measurement with the help of Balanced Scorecard (BSC) for selected Polish listed companies in the confectionery industry. The authors’ original solution within the framework of the BSC construction is extending the range of perspectives for assessing performance compared to the card proposed by Kaplan and Norton by the perspective of suppliers and CSR, and the appropriate selection of measures for this assessment. The article is based on literature studies and analysis of information included in business strategies, financial statements and reports on the operations of selected confectionery companies. Research on the use of multidimensional performance measurement using BSC, taking into account the additional perspectives of suppliers and CSR, help to better understand the relationship between economic, social, and environmental aspects of a company’s operations. Key words: Balanced Scorecard, performance measurement, strategy, CSR, confectionery industry companies. Introduction reviewed the previous BSC implementations in terms The condition for effective management of each of challenges (difficulties) and opportunities resulting enterprise is obtaining multidimensional information from the practical application of strategic financial about the effects of its operations.

Risk Aspect Abstract. Despite a wide range of research on the agricultural market conducted so far, relatively little attention has been devoted to a comprehensive analysis of linear and non-linear causality in relation to the entire agri-food sector in Poland, in the context of risk. The objective of this study is therefore to analyze the linear and non-linear relationships between shares of WSE's agri-food industry sectors in terms of risk. The study covered three sectors of agri-food sector currently existing on the WSE (29 listed companies): Foods (21 listed companies), Agricultural Production and Fisheries (5 listed companies) and Food and Foodstuffs and fast-trafficking foodstuffs (3 listed companies). The existence of linear relationships was verified using the test procedure proposed by Hong, Liu, Wang and Łęt, while non-linear relationships were verified using the Diks-Panchenko, Orzeszko and Osińska tests’s. The study was carried out on the basis of data from companies of the agri-food industry listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange in the period from 1 May 2010 to 1 May 2017.
