Yield is evident
Article Abstract:
Czech Republic: The congress of the International Monetary Fund and the Group of the World Bank in Prague in Sep 2000 can yield up to nearly CEK 17.1 bil. The estimate is based on a report, which was drawn up by the international consultancy firm Deloitte & Touche. According to the most pesimistic estimates of the report, the yield for the Czech economy should be CEK 7.8 bil. The biggest yield can be expected mainly from the field of congress tourism and general tourism. The preparation of the congress cost nearly CEK 940 mil. About CEK 740 mil of the sum were ensured by the Czech government and the Czech National Bank (Czech Republic). The rest was covered from private sources. The costs on the reconstruction of the Congress Centre were CEK 2.8 bil. The sum was covered from bonds worth CEK 2 bil guaranteed by the state and bonds worth CEK 0.8 bil guaranteed by the city of Prague.

Wedding venues
Article Abstract:
The range of venues available for those wishing to marry has widened over recent years following changes in the Marriage Act, 1994. Nearly one in three weddings took place in the South East in 1993, due to the number of licensed venues, according to a survey, and church weddings continue to the be most popular. The survey looks at market factors such as divorce rates, cohabiting, the UK economy and trends towards long haul holidays, and considers the cost of a wedding. It looks at weddings abroad, with the Caribbean the most popular destination, and considers other venues in the UK such as hotels, historic buildings, sporting venues and restaurants.
