The degree of informational asymmetry relating to the expiration of index derivatives is usually increased as an expiration day of index derivatives approaches. The increase in the degree of informational asymmetry may have some effects on trading behavior of investors. To examine what the effects look like, 'life cycle of index derivatives' in this study is defined as three adjacent periods around expiration day: pre-expiration period(a week before the expiration day), post-expiration period(a week after the expiration day), and remaining period. It is inspected whether stock investor's trading behavior is changed according to the life cycle of KOSPI200 derivatives and what the reason of the changing behavior is. We have four results. First, trading behavior of each investor group is categorized into three patterns: ㄱ-pattern, L-pattern and U-pattern. The level of trading activity is low for pre-expiration period and normal for other periods in the ㄱ-pattern. L-pattern means that the level of trading activity is high for post-expiration period and normal for other periods. In the U-pattern, the trading activity is reduced for remaining period compared to other periods. Second, individual investors have ㄱ-pattern of trading large stocks according to the life cycle of KOSPI200 index futures while they show U-pattern according to the life cycle of KOSPI200 index options. Their trading behavior is consistent with the prediction of Foster and Viswanathan(1990)'s model for strategic liquidity investors. Third, trading pattern of foreign investors in relation to life cycle of index derivatives is partially explained by the model, but trading pattern of institutional investors has nothing to do with the predictions of the model.

Today, communication trend of financial brand has changed fast with more foreign financial brand's introduction, emerging financial brands through the openness. With the trend of changing, companies are introducing various marketing methods to differentiate its brand image. And color marketing becomes an important tool for the differentiation. However, except a few brands, brand color which expresses management character of a company is different from the customer's preferred color which is based on investors' investment tendency. This may be related to the brand Image which is final goal of communication. Therefore, this study suggests effective communication method between company and customers by analyzing preferred color of customers by their investment tendency and comparison analysis security firms' color marketing strategy. As a result, it was found that Roland Barthes symbolic meaning of colors is different from the symbolic meaning of the groups of investor tendency. For example, I assumed that aggressive investors preferred strong color like red or orange, but the survey result was far from my assumption. I hope this study can be a good foundation for logical and scientific marketing in communication between security companies and customers in more open market with introduction to the Capital Market Consolidation Act.

Even though crowdfunding has become popular as a novel means of raising capital for early-stage ventures and startups through an Internet-based platform, it is unclear how a funder's characteristics, such as motivation and ability, influence their information processing and pledging decision. This study aims to propose and test a research model for determining the relationships between a funder's personal attributes, information processing style, and funding intention. To test the research model, we collected data from 139 Amazon Mechanical Turk participants through an online questionnaire survey. The findings indicate that a funder's self-efficacy has a positive effect on heuristic processing but has no significant effect on systematic processing. By contrast, a funder's personal relevance positively influences both systematic and heuristic processing. Furthermore, heuristic processing, as well as perceived value and perceived risk, influence pledging intentions positively. Our findings potentially contribute to improving the design of crowdfunding platforms to better support a funder's information needs. Based on our findings, we discuss the implications of our study as well as the directions for future research.

In this research, we investigate the relationship between volatility and the trading volumes of trader types in the KOSPI 200 index stock market, futures market, and options market. Three types of investors are considered: individual, institutional, and foreign investors. The empirical results show that the volatility of the stock market and futures market are affected by the transaction information from another market. This means that there exists the cross-market effect of trading volume to explain volatility. It turns out that the option market volatility is not explained by any trading volume of trader types. This is because the option market volatility, VKOSPI, is the volatility index that reflects traders' expectation on one month ahead underlying volatility. Third, individual investors tend to increase volatilities, whereas institutions and foreign investors tend to stabilize volatilities. These results can be used in the areas of investment strategies, risk management, and financial market stability.

Recent Studies emphasize the effect of investors attention, recognition and sentiment on the trading behavior of retail investors and stock price variation. In this study, we use Naver Trend to measure investors'attention and investigate the relation between investor attention and price synchronicity, total risk and systematic risk of stocks. Using various research methodologies such as portfolio analysis, fixed effect regression and dynamic panel analysis, we find consistent results. First, stock price synchronicity is increased with lager average search volume, but with less search variability. Second, both average search volume and its variability are positively related to total risk and beta of stocks. These results can be interpreted that search volume sharply increases only when stock-related event occurs.

This paper investigate to test the validity of the basic assumptions of strategic trading models with the broker and informed trader using daily closing data of KOSPI 200 stock index futures for the year 2001-2003. Major results are summarized as follows: (i) For these years, while foreign investors and brokerage companies traded for the directions consistent with the model, brokerage companies and individual investors traded for inconsistent directions. (ii) Cross correlation function (CCF) analysis shows no systematic dependency in the trading between all three participants(foreign investor, brokerage companies and individual investors) for these years. (iii) Chi-square validity test for the 30 days of the largest unexpected trading volume shows some systematic dependency in the trading between three participants for these years. Finally, some limitations of this paper and direction for further research were suggested.

본 연구 목적은 MBTI에 의해 구분되는 인간의 성격유형에 따라 금융투자자들의 위험선호의 차이 유무, Private Banker의 투자 조언의 수용, 그리고 Private Bank Service의 사용의도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것이다. 또한 MBTI의 성격유형별 주기능 사용의 차이에 기인한 개인의 특성이 위험선호에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 실험군인 고액자산가(HNWI)와 대조군인 학생의 MBTI 성격유형을 개별로 검사하고 Holt and Laury (2002)와 Weber et al. (2002)의 설문을 활용하는 실증적인 비교분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 첫째, Holt and Laury(2002)의 Lottery연구에서 고액자산가와 일반 대조군 그리고 MBTI의 주기능분류(ST, NF)에 따른 차이는 존재하였다. 특히 고액자산가의 경우 ST와 NF 그룹의 차이가 존재하는 것을 확인하였다. 둘째, Weber et al.(2002)의 위험 감수를 측정하는 심리측정 요인 중 Gamble(g) Recreation(r)의 특성이 고액자산가에서 위험선호도에 미치는 영향이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 개인의 일상생활에 관련한 특성 또는 금융과 관련 없는 취미생활이 개인의 위험선호도에 반영될 수 있음을 나타내는 것으로 기존의 문헌들의 연구결과를 지지한다고 할 수 있다. 셋째, MBTI의 선호지표점수에 따라 위험선호도에 차이가 존재하였다. MBTI T점수가 높을 경우 위험선호도가 낮은 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 고액자산가그룹에는 영향이 없는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 넷째, MBTI 유형도표의 태도지표에 의해 구분된 유형들에 따라 전체 금융자산 대비 Private Banker를 이용하는 비율의 차이가 존재하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 고액자산가를 대상으로 분석한 결과 태도유형 EP의 경우 다른 그룹에 비해 이용비율수준이 낮아 MBTI로 분류된 성격유형에 따라 전체금융자산 대비 Private Banker의 이용수준에도 영향이 있음을 확인하였다.

This study proposes policy recommendations for the Korea New Exchange ("KONEX"), which is a financial platform for SMEs and startups that relied on indirect and policy financing in the past. SMEs and venture firms with limited human and physical listing resources can grow through market incubation, and venture capitalists expect an early exit or return on investment. However, the lack of liquidity and sluggish trading volume have weakened the function of the market. Despite prior policy efforts, the number of newly listed companies has decreased while listing demand for KOSDAQ and K-OTC has increased. This study aims to suggest short- and long-term improvements in regulations and throughout the KONEX firms' listing life cycle. First, the minimum deposit requirement on individual investors should be abolished to increase the number of investors. Second, information disclosure should be conducted by firms so that the nominated advisor can focus on discovering and supporting new listed companies. Third, in order to increase trading volume, the 5% dispersion rule should be changed to 25% dispersion incentive principle. Fourth, a new track without profit condition in expedited transfer listing should be introduced because the KOSDAQ relaxes the profit realization requirements for listing. Lastly, transfer listing without additional review for firms that fulfill ownership dispersion, information disclosure, and investor protection will strengthen the incubating role of the KONEX.

고수익을 미끼로 한 자판기 분양사기가 최근 급증하고 있어 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 무조건 자판기 수익성만을 과대포장하여 투자자들의 `묻지마` 투자를 유도한 후 돈만 챙기고 사업에서 손을 떼어버리는 사기행각은 그 피해대상이 대부분 서민이라는 점에서 문제의 심각성을 더한다. 자판기가 불법 자금 모집을 통해 사기의 대상으로 외부 인식이 악화되어 버린다면 자판기 산업의 입지 역시 크게 좁혀 질 수 밖에 없다. 자판기 품목에 있어서는 불법자금모집의 대표적인 사례가 되는 경우는 확정수익을 보장한다며 투자자를 모집하는 경우이다. 그 후 일정기간동안 수익을 보장하며 투자자를 안심시킨 다음 일순간 돌변하여 자금을 챙겨 잠적을 하는 수순을 밝는다. 선의의 투자자들은 이럴 경우 엄청난 피해를 입게 되는 게 보통이다. 대개의 경우 기계 1~2대의 소량물량이 아닌 5대~l0대 단위의 투자를 유도하기 때문이다. 이제는 자판기 산업에 있어 이러한 악성 불법자금 모집업체들이 근절되어야 한다. 이 불법 사기행각의 대상이 더 이상 자판기 분야에 발을 붙이지 못하도록 하는 제도적 비책이 시급히 강구 되어야 한다. 이러한 가운데 금융감독원 비은행감독국 비제도금융조사팀에서는 올들어 지난 9월말까지 고수익을 미끼로 투자자금을 모집하다가 금감원에 적발된 유사 금융업체 85개사 명단을 사법당국에 통보했다. 불법자금모집 업체들이 투자자들을 유혹하기위해 미끼로 내세운 사업을 종류별로 보면 자판기, 게임기, 컴퓨터단말기 등 특정상품 운영권 제공이 29개사로 가장 많고, 사이버 쇼핑몰 및 인터넷사업(18개사), 납골당 등 부동산 투자(12개사), 영화등 문화 및 레저사업(10개사), 영화문화 및 레저산업(10개사), 벤처투자사(9개사) 등이었다. 자판기 분야에 있어서는 주로 성인용품자판기, 복권자판기 등의 품목이 불법자금 모집의 집중 타킷이 되었다. 금감원은 최근들어 유사 금융업체의 자금모집이 전문가도 속을 정도로 지능화하고 있다며 개인투자자들이 피해를 예방할 수 있는 불법업체 식별법을 금감원 인터넷 사이트(www.fss.or.kr)에 게시했다. 금감원은 특히 사업현황에 대해 지나치게 보안을 유지하는 업체, 1백$\%$이상의 터무니없는 고수익을 보장한다고 광고하는 업체, 제도권 금융회사의 지급보증을 강조하는 업체에 대해서는 투자에 앞서 금감원이나 업종 관련 정부당국에 사실여부를 확인해 보고 투자여부를 결정하라고 통보했다. 아울러 금감원은 금융소비자들이나 자판기 업계에서 불법자금 모집업체를 발견하여 전화(02-3786-8155~9)나 인터넷소비자 보호센터와 경찰에 신고해줄 것을 요청했다. 이제는 산업계도 더 이상 자판기 분야의 불법자금업체를 방치하지 말고 적극적인 금감원 신고를 통해 시장을 정화할 수 있게 해야 한다. 미꾸라지 한두마리가 온 개천 물 다 흐려놓는 이치처럼 자판기불법자금업체들로 인해 전체 산업에 미치는 영향이 실로 심각함을 인식해야 할 때이다. 금호 산업정보에서는 산업계에서 불법자금업체 근절에 많은 관심을 가질 수 있게 하기 위해 금융감독원 비은행감독국 비제도금융조사팀에서 배포한 $\ulcorner$불법자금 모집업체 고수익 보장 유혹에 주의$\lrcorner$ 에 대한 보도자료의 세부내용을 게재한다.

To explore the social construction of the concept of leadership, image of media mogul depicted in the popular business newspaper, the Wall Street Journal, was analyzed. Then, the reconstructed image of the CEO was compared with the firm's stock price change to see their relationship, if any. This paper focused on the case of Steve Case (previous chairman of AOL Time Warner), who was the leader of the world largest media company. The period for the analysis was three years and five months from his inauguration(January 2000) to the resignation(May 2003). In general, CEO of a firm represents the firm itself. Thus, the image of the CEO is highly transcends to the image of the firm as well. Consequently, the image of CEO might have an impact on the firm's performance. Since business newspaper works as one of the most important information intermediaries in the stock market, the image of CEO constructed in the newspaper might be a critical indicator for the investors. The results revealed that media coverage of Steve Case was commensurate with the financial performance, particularly stock price change of the AOL Time Warner.
