They can be big, they should be ambitious, but they have to be chosen with a vision that guarantees stability and enables gradual progress to be made. This creates security. This creates trust. This creates sustainability. JOHANNES HEFEL MICHEL HALLER MEMBER OF THE MANAGING BOARD CHAIRMAN OF THE MANAGING BOARD A CLEAR LINE FOREWORD Thanks to its focus on customer business, 2018 was a successful year for operations at Hypo Vorarlberg. Even in a difficult regulatory environment, we succeeded in systemically going down our chosen path - and in keeping with our corporate motto we are achieving great things together with our customers, business partners and employees. Dear customers, business partners, It is clear that many customers no longer go into a branch for shareholder representatives and employees, standard transactions such as transfers etc., but handle these transactions conveniently and quickly from home or on the go. The past financial year was characterised by negative and low For this reason, we are aligning our branch structure even more interest rates, new regulations and advancing digitalisation of on consulting and are focusing on bundling the many years of the banking business. Among other things, the global political expertise of our consultants in competence centres. Especially developments resulted in a challenging year for investors on the capital markets. In this environment, Hypo Vorarlberg continued to concentrate on its core competencies - the financing and invest- ment business - and thus concluded 2018 very successfully on an operating basis in line with the Austrian Corporate Code. New accounting policies “Our pledge: However, on 1 January 2018, the “rules” for group accounting virtually changed overnight.

In addition, amortisation and impairment on investments were required in 2018. As a result IFRS earnings before taxes finally amounted to EUR 48.7 million (2017: EUR 94.6 million). However, the development of interest and commission income as the most important earnings basis of our business shows that we are very well positioned with our focus on the customer business and a risk-conscious business policy. when it comes to complex issues such as investing assets or real estate financing, personal contact, dealing with customers’ needs Personal consulting and digital services. in a circumspect manner and mutual trust is important. In line with our promise “the best consulting for those with pur- pose”, we focus on continuing to provide comprehensive personal consulting to private and corporate customers and supplement the support at our locations with digital services where we con- sider it appropriate. 06 HYPO VORARLBERG Circumspection connects Achieving great things together Not only us, but also many people and companies in our area Our customers and business partners have placed their trust in of activity approach their projects in a circumspect manner.

  • The Empire in the Provinces: the Case of Carinthia
    religions Article The Empire in the Provinces: The Case of Carinthia Helmut Konrad Institut für Geschichte, Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, Attemsgasse 8/II, [505] 8010 Graz, Austria; [email protected] Academic Editors: Malachi Hacohen and Peter Iver Kaufman Received: 16 May 2016; Accepted: 1 August 2016; Published: 5 August 2016 Abstract: This article examines the legacy of the Habsburg Monarchy in the First Austrian Republic, both in the capital, Vienna, and in the province of Carinthia. It concludes that Social Democracy, often cited as one of the six ingredients that held the old Empire together, took on distinct forms in the Republic’s different federal states. The scholarly literature on the post-1918 “heritage” of the Monarchy therefore needs to move beyond monolithic generalizations and toward regionally focused comparative studies. Keywords: empire; socialism; Jews; Habsburg Monarchy; Austria; Vienna; Carinthia; German Nationalism; Sprachenkampf 1. Introduction Which forms did the ideas take that allowed the Habsburg monarchy to persist, despite the diversity of nationalisms present in the small Republic of German-Austria, for so long after the end of the First World War? What was the “glue” that held this multiethnic empire together, when its collapse had been predicted since 1848, and which of its elements continued to exist beyond 1918? How was this heritage expressed in the different regions of the new republic? At least six factors can be identified as ingredients of the “glue” that held the monarchy together: first, the Emperor, a figure who symbolized the fusion of the complex linguistic, ethnic and religious components of the Habsburg state; second, the administrative officials, who were loyal to the Emperor and worked in the ubiquitous and even architecturally similar buildings of the Monarchy’s district authorities and train stations; third, the army, whose members promoted the imperial ideals through their long terms of service and acknowledged linguistic diversity.

  • Burgenland-Roma
    Data » Ethnology and Groups » Roma in Austria » Burgenland-Roma http://romani.uni-graz.at/rombase Burgenland-Roma Romani-Project The Roma residing in present Burgenland, which is the furthest east of the nine Austrian federal states, and borders with Hungary, belong to the group whose members are called Ungrian Roma, → Ungrika-Roma or Romungri in older literature. This group living in the western region of Hungarian influence, ranging from southern Slovakia to northern Slovenia, are characterised by their long-term settlement and, consequently, by a strong Hungarian influence in their culture. History At the end of the 14th century, Roma are first mentioned in western Hungary, to which today’s Burgenland belonged at that time. From the beginning of the 15th century, larger Roma groups started entering the Pannonic border area of western Hungary. Most likely due to the fact that they served in the war as soldiers and blacksmiths, the Roma were at first tolerated and to a certain extent even supported by some of the Hungarian nobility. This favourable condition lead to the first settlements: in the second half of the 17th century, there is documentary evidence of the founding of villages under Christoph Batthyány. In contrast to the liberal Battyány, who controlled southern Burgenland, the Esterházy of northern Burgenland expelled the Roma from their area of influence. This contrast characterises the situation of the Roma at that time as one situated somewhere between acceptance and discrimination. After the end of the Osmanic Reign in 1688, the situation of the Roma living in western Hungary changed. The law was laid down that they were to be banned from the country.

  • Chapter 8 the Interface Between Subnational and National Levels Of
    8. THE INTERFACE BETWEEN SUBNATIONAL AND NATIONAL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT – 143 Chapter 8 The interface between subnational and national levels of government Multilevel regulatory governance – that is to say, taking into account the rule-making and rule-enforcement activities of all the different levels of government, not just the national level – is another core element of effective regulatory management. The OECD’s 2005 Guiding Principles for Regulatory Quality and Performance “encourage Better Regulation at all levels of government, improved co-ordination, and the avoidance of overlapping responsibilities among regulatory authorities and levels of government”. It is relevant to all countries that are seeking to improve their regulatory management, whether they are federations, unitary states or somewhere in between. In many countries local governments are entrusted with a large number of complex tasks, covering important parts of the welfare system and public services such as social services, health care and education, as well as housing, planning and building issues, and environmental protection. Licensing can be a key activity at this level. These issues have a direct impact on the welfare of businesses and citizens. Local governments within the boundaries of a state need increasing flexibility to meet economic, social and environmental goals in their particular geographical and cultural setting. At the same time, they may be taking on a growing responsibility for the implementation of EC regulations. All of this requires a pro active consideration of: • The allocation/sharing of regulatory responsibilities at the different levels of government (which can be primary rule-making responsibilities; secondary rule-making responsibilities based on primary legislation, or the transposition of EC regulations; responsibilities for supervision/enforcement of national or subnational regulations; or responsibilities for service delivery).

    Memorandum by the Gauleiter of Styria (Austria) regarding the solution of the ‘’Gypsy Question’’, submitted 1939, Berlin Cable address: Gou Gras Graz, Lanhaus, Herrengasse, Deputy Gauleiter Graz, 9 January 1938 Reich Minister Dr. Lamers, Berlin W 8 Dear Reich Minister, In the enclosure I beg to submit to you my nowly edited thesis on the Gypsy problem. Heil Hitler, (Signature) Portschy Deputy Gauleiter Enclosure The Solution of the Gypsy problem. How urgent it is, to solve the Gypsy problem, is obvious from all these considerations. Up to date, it was possible to hear various opinions as to what that solution, should be like. They are to be quoted in detail here because they show, in how blind and corrupt a manner the matter was tacked by the politicians of the System. 1) The Gypsies are to be absorbed into the entire German nation. They should become assimilated. They only number 8.000 in the Burgenland, and could easily be absorbed by the German people, without any harm to the latter. This opinion sees above all that the approx. 8.400 settled Gypsies in the Burgenland are not the only ones, and that thousands of their race are wandering about the entire territory of the Reich. It is true that today in the face of the awakening of racial consciousness in our German people, this view is only being defended by unscrupulous scoundrels, who do not want to recognize the importance of the purity of the blood. This is the Liberalistic “solution” which is founded on belief in the oneness of humanity and assumes __________________________________________________________________________ 1/6 Shoah Resource Center, The International School for Holocaust Studies hostility towards every race-conscious people.
