DIFFERENT KINDS OF FINANCING BASED ON RECEIVABLES AND OPPORTUNITIES TO APPLY THEM IN LITHUANIA (59)
Šiame straipsnyje vertinamos Lietuvos teisės normų suteikiamos galimybės įmonėms gauti pigesnį ir prieinamesnį finansavimą piniginių reikalavimų pagrindu. Visų pirma nagrinėjamos faktoringą reguliuojančios teisės normos. Galima teigti, kad faktoringas Lietuvoje tinkamai reguliuojamas. Toliau vertinamos galimybės naudotis kitais tokio finansavimo būdais: finansavimu neinformuojant skolininko, finansavimu įkeičiant piniginius reikalavimus bei sekiuritizacijos mechanizmu. Daroma išvada, kad pagal dabartines teisės normas šie finansavimo būdai yra arba sunkiai prieinami, arba iš viso neprieinami. Galiausiai, iškeliama mintis, kad galbūt šiuos finansavimo būdus reikėtų reguliuoti ne po vieną, bet kartu.

DĖL KAI KURIŲ PRIESAGOS -INIS, -Ė BŪDVARDŽIŲ TEISĖS KALBOJE: TEIKTINA IR NETEIKTINA VARTOSENA (79)
Šioje apžvalgoje pirmiausia siekiama aptarti vieną iš gausesnių žodžių darybos klaidų grupių – tai išvestiniai būdvardžiai su priesaga -inis, -ė, kurių pamatiniai žodžiai yra abstraktūs veiksmažodiniai daiktavardžiai, turintys priesagas -imas, -ymas, -umas, -inys ir kt. Ne vieno sudėtinio teisės termino dėmuo yra toks nesisteminės, lietuvių kalbai neįprastos darybos būdvardis, patekęs net į įstatymų, kodeksų ir jų komentarų bei vadovėlių kalbą. Šie priesagos -inis, -ė vediniai yra neteiktinos darybos, tad turėtų būti keičiami taisyklingais atitikmenimis. Dažniausiai tokius dirbtinius ir todėl vengtinus darinius atstoja bendrinei kalbai įprastas daiktavardžio kilmininkas, kitais kartais, atsižvelgiant į termino vartojimo kontekstą, siūloma vartoti dalyvį ar kitą taisyklingą konstrukciją. Taigi apžvalgoje pristatoma esama padėtis – kokie terminai ir kiti dažnesni pasakymai vartojami teisės kalboje su minėtais neteiktinais būdvardžiais, šio kalbos reiškinio kalbininkų vertinimai ir siūlymai.
