Summary/Abstract: This book collects scientific papers and reports presented on the conference ‘The Membership of Bulgaria in the EU: Five Years Later’ organized by the International Economic Relations and Business Department at University of National and World Economy (UNWE), Sofia, Bulgaria. The conference, held on 15 October 2012, traditionally provided a stage for prominent academics, dedicated PhD students and professionals to discuss contemporary topics related to multiple aspects of the European integration, its effects on the Bulgarian economy, socio-economic environment, international business and relations, finance and politics. The contributors to this edition review the recent changes in the EU’s budgetary policy, the progress of the banking union as well as the political union and sentiments among the member states. Another thematic circle are the consequences of the financial crisis and the changes introduced to the banking sector, especially regarding the monitoring, supervisory mechanisms and capital requirements. Following the same context, the macroeconomic imbalance procedure is being discussed, analysis on the regional economic integration of Bulgaria, competitiveness, and country’s external trade is presented as well as a research on the public procurement procedures. Readers would find more on the climate change implications, energy security in the EU and the utilization of renewables as a tool to address those concerns. Another group of authors study the contemporary human resource management in the complex business environment, product positioning and marketing. ‘The Membership of Bulgaria in the EU: Five Years Later’ is an annually organized academic event with the vision to foster open dialogue, offer contemporary research and exchange of ideas between fellow academics, policy makers, businesses, stakeholders and the public.
