Finally, I have to thank my family for the understanding, tolerance, and "endurance" they showed in my decision to be ranked in the "second" hierarchical priority until the completion of my postgraduate studies. v Louiza Vasileiou, “Economic analysis of Municipalities belonging in the prefecture of Achaia. The implications of the economic crisis on Municipalities. Case study: Municipality of Patra” Abstract The present work concerns the analysis of the financial data of the five Municipalities of the Prefecture of Achaia for the years 2014 to 2018. Municipalities are non-profit organizations. Their purpose is to provide services to citizens to cover their needs and add value to their lives. Therefore evaluating Municipalities’ financial condition refers to examine if they can meet these obligations now and in the future. Also, the Municipalities have to serve citizens with different demographic, sociocultural, and socioeconomic characteristics and operate in different geomorphologic conditions and this is something that one must take into account especially in economic crisis conditions. The main concern of the work was to present the institutional framework in which the Municipalities move, the adversities they faced in the conditions of the economic crisis, and to evaluate these organizations financially. This evaluation was made using ratios such as activity, profitability, liquidity, and financial structure. In addition, the Z-score model of Altman was used to determine whether there is credit risk for the organizations under consideration. The data that was analyzed, come from the financial statements of the municipalities (Balance Sheet & Income Statement). The Municipality of Patra was also selected as the largest Municipality of the Prefecture and as a metropolitan Municipality for further analysis of revenues and expenditures -again in the same five years- with the use of indicators related to the structure of revenues and expenditures. The first Chapter presents their institutional framework, jurisdictions, and the impact of the financial crisis on them. The financial administration and management is the second Chapter followed by ratios analysis of their financial statements in the third Chapter and the revenue and expenses analysis by ratios for the Municipality of Patra in the fourth Chapter while the conclusion is available in chapter 5. Keywords Municipalities, financial condition, economic analysis, financial ratios. vi Louiza Vasileiou, “Economic analysis of Municipalities belonging in the prefecture of Achaia. The implications of the economic crisis on Municipalities. Case study: Municipality of Patra” Περίληψη Η παρούσα εργασία αφορά την ανάλυση των οικονομικών δεδομένων των πέντε Δήμων του Νομού Αχαΐας για τα έτη 2014 έως 2018. Οι δήμοι είναι μη κερδοσκοπικοί οργανισμοί. Σκοπός τους είναι να παρέχουν υπηρεσίες στους πολίτες για να καλύψουν τις ανάγκες τους και να προσθέσουν αξία στη ζωή τους. Επομένως, η αξιολόγηση της οικονομικής τους κατάστασης έχει να κάνει με το εάν μπορούν να εκπληρώσουν αυτές τις υποχρεώσεις τώρα και στο μέλλον. Επίσης, οι Δήμοι πρέπει να εξυπηρετούν πολίτες με διαφορετικά δημογραφικά, κοινωνικά, πολιτισμικά και οικονομικά χαρακτηριστικά και να λειτουργούν σε διαφορετικές γεωμορφολογικές συνθήκες και αυτό είναι κάτι που πρέπει κανείς να λάβει υπόψη ειδικά σε συνθήκες οικονομικής κρίσης. Το κύριο μέλημα της εργασίας ήταν να παρουσιάσει το θεσμικό πλαίσιο στο οποίο κινούνται οι Δήμοι, τις αντιξοότητες που αντιμετώπισαν στις συνθήκες της οικονομικής κρίσης και να αξιολογήσει οικονομικά αυτούς τους οργανισμούς. Αυτή η αξιολόγηση πραγματοποιήθηκε χρησιμοποιώντας δείκτες δραστηριότητας, κερδοφορίας, ρευστότητας και χρηματοοικονομικής δομής. Επιπλέον, το μοντέλο Z-score του Altman χρησιμοποιήθηκε για να προσδιοριστεί εάν υπάρχει πιστωτικός κίνδυνος για τους υπό εξέταση οργανισμούς. Τα δεδομένα που αναλύθηκαν προέρχονται από τις οικονομικές καταστάσεις των δήμων (Ισολογισμός & Αποτελέσματα χρήσης). Ο Δήμος Πατρέων επιλέχθηκε επίσης ως ο μεγαλύτερος Δήμος του Νομού και ως μητροπολιτικός Δήμος για περαιτέρω ανάλυση των εσόδων και δαπανών - και πάλι τα ίδια πέντε χρόνια - με τη χρήση δεικτών που σχετίζονται με τη διάρθρωση των εσόδων και των δαπανών. Το πρώτο κεφάλαιο παρουσιάζει το θεσμικό πλαίσιο των Δήμων, τις δικαιοδοσίες και τον αντίκτυπο της χρηματοπιστωτικής κρίσης. Η οικονομική διαχείριση είναι το δεύτερο κεφάλαιο ακολουθούμενο από ανάλυση δεικτών των οικονομικών τους καταστάσεων στο τρίτο κεφάλαιο και ανάλυση εσόδων και εξόδων με δείκτες για τον Δήμο Πατρέων στο τέταρτο κεφάλαιο, ενώ το συμπέρασμα είναι διαθέσιμο στο κεφάλαιο 5. Λέξεις – Κλειδιά Δήμοι, οικονομική κατάσταση, οικονομική ανάλυση, χρηματοοικονομικοί δείκτες. vii Louiza Vasileiou, “Economic analysis of Municipalities belonging in the prefecture of Achaia.

    Curriculum Vitae Breve DANIELA PANTOSTI Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia Via di Vigna Murata 605 00143 Roma (Italy) coniugata, madre di due figli [email protected] http://www.roma1.ingv.it/INGV/Members/pantosti Sommario Ha iniziato la sua formazione in Geologia Strutturale e Geomorfologia Tettonica presso l’Università di Roma “La Sapienza”, successivamente si è focalizzata sulla Paleosismologia come possibile input alle stime di pericolosità sismica. La sua attività di ricerca all’INGV è dedicata allo sviluppo di studi di dettaglio su faglie attive, principalmente attraverso la geomorfologia tettonica e la Paleosismologia. Tali studi sono finalizzati alla caratterizzazione delle sorgenti sismogenetiche e del loro comportamento sismogenetico, ed allo sviluppo di modelli di segmentazione e ricorrenza. Per aumentare le informazioni utili a descrivere in modo completo la storia sismica di una regione, ha recentemente posto grande attenzione anche allo studio degli effetti e depositi cosismici non direttamente connessi alla faglia (Paleosismologia off fault: liquefazioni, depositi di tsunami, subsidenza/sollevamento relativo ecc.). Anche i risultati di queste attività sono utilizzati come input per le stime di pericolosità sismica e da tsunami e vengono utilizzati per verificare il relativo impatto nei modelli finali. In questi ambiti ha sempre sostenuto lo sviluppo e l’integrazione delle tecniche classiche osservative geologiche con quelle più analitiche, sviluppate in laboratorio in modo particolare per porre vincoli

Indexing active fault zones with structural, seismological and sedimentological criteria leads to thorough understanding of the evolution and modern activity and provide researchers useful tools in order to evaluate the degree ofpresent day activity ofthe broader area. The combined approach proposed here, with joint use of both, seismogenic sources and structural evidence, contributes to the re-evaluation ofthe earthquake potential by assessing the role ofactive features in the already complex geodynamic environment ofthe Corinthian gulf Key words: neotectonic, earthquake fau It, Greece. n£pfA 'l4J'l To VWTfXroVZKO [JiJe/all(/.
