This paper studied the potential risk of high-rise apartment by analysis of the loss ratio of housing fire insurance, statistics related high-rise apartment fire, and the insured amount of housing fire insurance, and, found that it is so high and need the improvement of risk management measures for high-rise apartment. Accordingly, the study recommend the composit risk management measures including preventing of fire expanding for higher stories, a shelter for people of hire-rise apartment, and sprinkler protection, etc. Also as risk transfer measures, the composit risk measures for high-rise apartment includes the full insurance of housing fire insurance, third party property liability insurance, and development of endorsement for special risk such as a typhoon, liability etc.

Korea paid attention to the work injury insurance in the early economic development stage as other developed countries did. Thus "The industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Law" was legislated in 1963 and it is now expanded to apply to the workplace with five or more employees. Beside the low coverage of the number of employees, the scope of benefits are the problem of work injury insurance. The work injury insurance's main benefits are for the loss of income and the medical cost caused by occupational accidents. On the other hand, the investment on the prevention accident and the medical, social and employment rehabilitation is very low, even though the occupational accident pension is higher than that in other OECD countries. Practically lay-off benefits and survivor' benefit for some special workers are paid more than they need, therefore they want to remain under the benefit condition and the medical care days are longer. This paper indicates the problems of work injury insurance and suggest how to improve the functions of it.

The purpose of this study was to test a validity and reliability of Cognitive Performance Scale(CPS), a cognitive measure generated from 5 items(comatose status, decision making, short-term memory, making self understood, and eating). Method: 393 patients in 2 hospitals for the elderly with dementia were measured with CPS by two nurses independently. The inter-rater agreement was tested by comparing two scores. The CPS score was compared with GDS, which was measured by doctors and nurses, and MMSE score which was drawn from the claim data of Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service. Result: The correlation coefficient between CPS and GDS was 0.742(p<0.0001), CPS and MMSE was -0.794(p<0.0001). The Cronbach's coefficient alpha of CPS was 0.742, Kappa value was 0.772~1.000. The CPS showed high validity and reliability in long term care hospitals of Korea.

This paper studies the partial credibility application method by assuming the empirical prior or noninformative prior informations in auto insurnace business where intensive rating segmentation is expanded because of premium competition. Expanding of rating factor segmetation brings the increase of pricing cells, as a result, the number of cells for partial credibility application will increase correspondingly. This study is trying to suggest more accurate estimation method by considering the Bayesian framework. By using empirically well-known or noninformative information, inducing the proper posterior distribution and applying the Bayes estimate which is minimizing the error loss into the credibility method, we will show the advantage of Bayesian inference by comparison with current approaches. The comparison is implemented with square root rule which is a widely accepted method in insurance business. The convergence level towarding to the true risk will be compared among various approaches. This study introduces the alternative way of redcuing the error to the auto insurance business fields in need of various methods because of more segmentations.

This study empirically analyzes changes in production patterns of farmers by agricultural disaster insurance. The aim of this project is to achieve stability of farm management by paying insurance in case of a natural disaster. However, it causes farmers to change production patterns in the direction of increasing production, and leads the crop price to drop. This can be explained by producers' risk reduction through the disaster insurance. The empirical analysis is based on IV approach with using two stage least squares method. The first stage estimates by difference-in-differences methodology indicate that the production of insurable crops increases more about 80,000ton on average than that of non-insurable crops. In addition, to solve the endogeneity problem caused by general supply and demand model, I use the first stage estimates and find that the price index of the crops drops about 2.3% according to the production increase by 10,000ton. The credibility of these results is also attained by various robustness checks. These findings suggest that it is necessary for government to analyze the whole economy which consists of producer and consumer welfare when it determines the policy. Besides, it implies that it is essential to develop a new market to cope with the unintended effect.

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the preference for direct marketing according to the characteristics of policyholders and suggest implications for marketing strategies with regard to direct marketing. A marked characteristic of this paper is a good quality of data and the results gained from analysing the data can be trusted very much. Binary logistic regression is employed. A statistically significant preference is shown in the group such as male, a younger generation, a hazardous occupation, the metropolitan area, and the customer of foreign company. The results suggest that promotion for female is needed to revitalize direct marketing. A tight underwriting for a hazardous occupation is also required.

The reliability guarantee insurance policy for parts and materials was introduced to the market in 2003. This policy indemnifies manufactures of products for the repair/failure costs, recall expenses of products and business interruption losses found to be defective by users or demand companies during the terms of guarantee and after the user acquired physical possession of the product. In this paper, owing to the nature of the policy, we propose a new rate-making system considering the type of product and industry, quality control circumstances, record of guarantee performance, and exposure.

Long-term care insurance is a social insurance system that provides benefits to the elderly who have difficulty taking care of themselves for a period of at least 6 months. This system was started in July, 2008 and it is very important to set proper judgement ratings for the approval process. We try to develop and improve the judgement rating system using decision tree models. Our tree model is found to be more stable and efficient than the previous one.

In this paper, we study the relationships between organization characteristics and desired software quality attributes of enterprise systems. We collected data from three client organizations in three different domains (auto manufacturer, insurance services firm, and government agency) that adopted enterprise software of the same software vendor. Our analysis discovers that capability is a more important attribute to the manufacturing and insurance firms than the government agency. Usability is ranked the highest among other attributes for the government agency and reliability for the manufacturing firm. The relationships identified in this study will help enterprise systems vendors predict their customer needs and, ultimately, increase effectiveness and efficiency in their software development processes. Such findings will be specially useful when software vendors develop enterprise software for a venture firm by enabling them to meet the customer needs customized by the organization haracteristics while staying within the incubating firm's limited budget.

본 연구는 새로운 국제 전자결제수단으로 개발된 무역카드(TadeCard)에 대한 검토와 활용 가능성에 관하여 검토한 것이다. 무역카드는 세계무역센터협회가 인터넷을 통하여 국제무역대금을 결제할 수 있는 전자결제시스템으로 개발되었다. 무역카드시스템은 제시되는 전자문서의 일치성 점검 및 국제무역거래의 모든 이행과정을 온라인(on-line) 상에서 전자적으로 이행되는 것을 특징으로 하고 있으며 부대비용 등 경제성 측면에서 여타 결제수단보다 우월한 결제시스템이라고 하고 있다. 그러나 가상공간을 통한 전자결제시스템은 거래당사자에게 대금지급의 확실성과 거래의 안정성 및 신속성 보장이 전제되어야 한다. 실제로 무역카드시스템은 특정 보증보험회사의 보증에 기반을 두고 있어 국제 기업간 거액거래상의 신용취급의 한계점과 금융네트워크 등에서의 취약점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 무역카드가 국제전자결제시스템으로 정착되기 위해서는 정보보안 등 기술적인 안정성이 검증되고 결제상의 신뢰성 보장을 위하여 상업은행들의 참여가 확대되어야 한다. 또한 인터넷상에서 결제가 이루어지기 위해서는 담보권과 유통성이 보장되는 볼레로전자선화 증권 등의 활용과 기존의 모든 종이문서에 의한 결제서류도 전자문서로 대체되어야 한다.
