The capital markets of neighboring transitional Western Balkan countries have attracted a lot of interest from domestic and international investors in the last decade, who view them as an attractive alternative to investing in more developed markets. These markets are characterized by higher returns, and higher volatility of stock returns as compared to those of developed markets. The recent economic and financial crises devastated capital markets worldwide. The new Bosnian capital market faced its hardest times following the withdrawal of international investors. The aim of this paper is to explore whether there is a standard relation between stock returns and market portfolio returns, as proposed by the Sharpe-Lintner Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), in the stock market of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We tested the model hypotheses with a traditional two-stage regression procedure using the OLS method, using continuously compounded (logarithmic) returns on stocks. Our study indicates that despite the crisis the systematic risk measured by the beta coefficient is priced and that the beta premium is positive. Nevertheless, the Security Market Line (SML) intercepts the ordinate lower than the risk free rate of return. Other factors might also influence stock returns in this market.

Pogoń za pieniędzmi i kapitałem jest nieustannym dążeniem każdej gospodarki. BIZ są uważane za siłę napędową wzrostu gospodarczego, podczas gdy przekazy pieniężne są w coraz większym stopniu katalizatorem dobrobytu ludności. Celem opracowania jest analiza związku między przekazami pieniężnymi a napływem BIZ do Kosowa, Szwajcarii i Danii. Wtórne dane uzyskane z opracowania World Development Indicators zostały przeanalizowane za pomocą metody zwykłych najmniejszych kwadratów i testu przyczynowości Grangera oraz przetworzone techniką SPSS 21. Pomiar korelacji między zmiennymi: bezpośrednimi inwestycjami zagranicznymi, wzrostem PKB per capita, saldem migracji, przekazami pieniężnymi, nakładami brutto na środki trwałe, spożyciem gospodarstw domowych i liczbą ludności, daje wiarygodne wyniki. Wykorzystując przekazy pieniężne jako zmienną zależną, pierwsza hipoteza została częściowo potwierdzona. Najbardziej istotne statystycznie determinanty zwiększające przekazy pieniężne to populacja, bezrobocie i migracje. Wyniki regresji są niezadowalające w przypadku zmiennej zależnej BIZ (druga hipoteza). Determinanty są skorelowane pozytywnie, ale nieistotnie statystycznie, co potwierdza, że istnieją inne czynniki wpływające na wzrost napływu BIZ. Macierz korelacji wykazuje wysoką korelację między zmiennymi. Model przyczynowości Grangera, poprzez test Walda, reprezentuje przyczynę tego zjawiska. BIZ nie generują przekazów pieniężnych, ale przekazy pieniężne wpływają na wielkość BIZ. Ograniczeniem badania jest niejednorodność danych i krajów w próbie. Wyniki badania będą posłużyć instytucjom rządowym w Kosowie do poprawy otoczenia biznesowego, tak aby kraj stał się atrakcyjny dla inwestorów zagranicznych, dzięki którym nastąpi wzrost kapitału i zatrudnienia.

The pursuit of money and capital is a relentless endeavor of every economy. FDI is considered the engine of economic growth, while are remittances the increasingly the catalyst of the population’s welfare. The purpose of the study is to analyze the answer about the relationship between remittances and FDI inflows in Kosovo, Switzerland and Denmark. Secondary data obtained from the World Development Indicators were, analyzed with the Ordinary Least Squares model and Granger Causality and processed with SPSS 21 technique. Measuring the correlation between variables, Foreign Direct Investment, GDP per capita growth, net migration, remittances, Gross Fixed Capital Formation, household consumption, and population number, give reliable results. Using remittances as a dependent variable, the first hypothesis has been partially confirmed, the most statistically significant and positive determinants that increase remittances are population, unemployment and migration and not other determinants. The regression results are unsatisfactory for the second hypothesis dependent variables Foreign Direct Investment the determinants are positive but not statistically significant, confirming that there are other factors that impact the increase of FDI inflows. The correlation matrix shows a high correlation between the variables. The Granger Causality model, through the Wald test, represents the cause. FDI does not cause remittances, but remittances cause FDI. A limitation of the study is the heterogeneity of the data and the countries in the sample. The results of the study will be of interest to government institutions in Kosovo to improve the business environment so that the country will become attractive to foreign investors who will bring capital and employment growth.

In this article, a detailed analysis of the impact of capital markets on economic growth in Luxembourg is presented, utilizing annual economic data. The study spanned from 1975 to 2020. As part of the analysis, an econometric model was constructed and estimated using the GRETL software. The results obtained confirm that the capital market has a statistically significant impact on Luxembourg's economic development. This research provides new insights into the role of capital markets in shaping economic growth dynamics, which is crucial for understanding the economic mechanisms in small, open economies like Luxembourg.
