  • 빠르게 성장하는 국경 간 전자상거래는 전통적인 무역과는 다른 특성을 보인다. 본 연구에서는 그중에서도 제품 유형이나 단가와 같은 품목 특성도 전자상거래 수출에 영향을 줄 수 있는지를 확인하였다. 이를 위해서 한국의 국가별, 품목별 전자상거래 수출 자료와 수출국의 특성 및 품목별 특성을 포함한 패널데이터를 구성하고, 이를 분석하였다. 연구결과 품목별 전자상거래 수출에도 거리의 영향 등이 유효하게 나타났으며, 계약 건별 금액, 내구소비재, 자본재와 같은 품목 특성도 전자상거래 수출에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구는 국경 간 전자상거래의 특징에 대한 이해를 고취할 수 있을 것이며, 향후 품목별 데이터를 활용한 연구의 근거로도 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

  • 현재 세계 여러 나라는 GATS의 통신에 관한 예외규정에 입각하여 기간통신서비스의 국경간 공급을 반경쟁행위 통제, 국내 소비자 보호, 조세부과, 국가안보 등을 이유로 규제하고 있다. 우리나라의 경우 통신서비스의 국경간 공급을 WTO 및 국내법의 규정을 통하여 부분적으로 규제를 시행하고 있으나, WTO 및 FTA 협상시 국경간 공급에 대한 규제완화를 요구받고 있다. 그러므로 규제에 대하여 실효성 파악하고 이에 대한 대응이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 따라서 본고에서는 주요국의 통신서비스의 국경간 공급 정책을 살펴보았다. 또한 주요국의 실제 규제 사례를 살펴봄으로써 우리나라의 국경간 공급 규제정책에 대한 시사점을 모색해 보았다.

  • Purpose - The purpose of this research was to examine the regulation and distribution channel of second-hand goods in cross-border trade in order to propose methods of protecting consumers through the international standardization of the intensifying second-hand trade and resource recycling. Research design, data, methodology - This study first defines several concepts relevant to research in international second-hand goods. Second, a questionnaire and interviews were conducted with manufacturers of second-hand toner cartridges and automobile parts to identify the current status of export and manufacturing. Results - The study proposes the international standardization of second-hand goods and waste to protect consumers and promote efficient resource recycling. Conclusions - The results of the study reveal that second-hand goods (except automobiles) do not have an HSK code to use for import/export data collection. Though used car exports are declining, used cars are increasing. Collecting data on used car parts is impossible because the buyers purchase and ship the second-hand parts.

  • Cross-border consumer disputes are on the increase as cross-border trade between consumers and businesses continues to grow. Cross-border consumer disputes are difficult to solve, because there are different languages, laws and institutions between the parties. These consumer disputes can be solved more easily by Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) in comparison with utilizing court processes. ODR is a branch of dispute resolution which uses technology to facilitate the resolution of disputes between parties. It primarily involves negotiation, mediation or arbitration, or a combination of all three. In this respect it is often seen as being the online equivalent of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). On 18 June 2013, the new legislation on Alternative Dispute Resolution and Online Dispute Resolution has been published - the "Directive on Consumer ADR and Regulation on Consumer ODR". The new legislation on ADR and ODR will allow consumers and traders to solve their disputes without going to court, in a quick, low-cost and simple way. The United Nations working group for online dispute resolution of cross-border electronic commerce transactions (UNCITRAL Working Group III) has been underway since 2010 to continue its work on procedural rules for ODR.

  • Over the past few decades, globalization has been shifting economic power upward to transnational actors on the one hand, and downward to subnational or regional spaces on the other. This phenomenon has resulted in the centrality of territorially delimited subnational regions acting as critical loci of economic governance within a complex and globally distributed value chain of trade and service flows. Within this broader context of industrial restructuring are economic regions that span national borders in their collective assets. The paper focuses on investigating the economic competitiveness and productivity of cross-border (or binational) economic regions. Using the conceptual framework of economic clusters, an econometric model that measures proxies of geographic proximity of firms in the life sciences cluster, and a new binational economic model, the paper examines the key characteristics, potentials and constraints of economic competitiveness and productivity in a cross-border region comprising counties in Western New York and regional municipalities in Southern Ontario. The findings demonstrate the direct and indirect benefits of closer cross-border economic cooperation. The paper then concludes with some policy observations about leveraging cross-border economic clusters for strategic industrial cooperation.

  • 디지털 무역은 관련 산업 및 거래의 종류가 다양하고 범위도 넓어서 국제적으로 통용되는 명문화된 정의는 없으나, 일반적으로 기존 상품 중심의 전자상거래를 포함, '인터넷과 ICT 등 디지털 기술을 이용한 국가간 교역 활동(상품+서비스+Data) 전반'을 의미한다. 최근에는 4차 산업혁명으로 인한 IT 등 기술의 발전으로 디지털 무역에 혁신적인 변화가 발생하고 있고, 미국, EU, 일본 등 선진국들은 데이터 이동 자유화 등 디지털 무역 이슈를 디지털무역협정의 협상안건에 포함시키고 있다. 국경 간 데이터 이동 자유화에 대한 쟁점은 디지털 무역 활성화를 위해 데이터 이동의 자유가 필요하나, 정보 보안과 사생활 침해의 위험성도 증가한다는 것이다. 선진국들의 방향을 살펴보면, 미국은 규제 최소화, 유럽은 역내 단일시장화는 찬성하나 소극적 대외 개방, 중국은 규제를 통한 독자적 시장육성 입장을 치하고 있다. 따라서 국경간 데이터 이동 제한조치 강화 조치는 최근 국가별로 정책이 시행되고 있거나 조만간 국제적 합의가 예정되어 있는 이슈로 우리나라도 이에 대한 긴밀한 대응이 필요하다.

  • 본 연구는 다양한 문헌자료, 현지인터뷰 그리고 설문조사를 바탕으로 북중 교역의 중심지인 단둥을 대상으로 월경적 상호작용에서 나타난 특징을 분석하고 북중 접경도시 단둥의 성격을 평가해보고자 하였다. 본 연구는 접경도시 단둥에서 이루어지는 월경적 상호작용의 구체적 실태를 분석하여 주체들의 지대추구적 행위, 비공식적 또는 비시장적 기제에 의한 월경적 상호작용이 지배하고 있음을 밝혔다. 이는 통제의 수준이 높은 국경의 성격 때문에 비롯된 것인데, 본 연구에서는 중국 정부 및 지방정부의 정책들이 이와 같은 국경의 성격을 형성하는데 기여하고 있음을 보여주었다. 흥변부민행동규획(??富民行???)은 그 대표적인 예인데, 정책의 명칭에도 불구하고 그 기본전략은 변경지역의 안정을 통한 영토 보전에 두고 있다. 이처럼 북한의 폐쇄성, UN제재 요인 이외에도 영토 보전을 우선시하는 중국 정부의 기본 입장으로 인해 북중접경지역은 교역 이외에 높은 수준의 분업체계 발전을 특징으로 하는 하나의 기능지역으로서 접경지역 발전을 기대하기는 용이하지 않을 것으로 보인다. 따라서 필자는 최근의 북중교역의 발전을 계기로 북중교역의 중심지인 단둥에 대해 접경도시적 발전이 전개되고 있다는 일부의 견해는 지나친 확대해석이라고 주장하고자 한다. 필자는 현재까지 단둥은 북한과 중국이 만나는 위치적 장점만이 활용되는 변경도시(border city)에 불과하고 다양한 그리고 높은 수준의 월경적 상호작용이 이루어지는 접경도시(cross border city)로 간주하기는 어렵다는 점을 강조하고자 한다.

  • Purpose - This study investigates whether a listing effect exists in cross-border M&As and whether the effect can be attributed to the uncertainty of the GDP growth rate in the target firm's home country. We apply a joint variable analysis using M&A announcement data from the Korea Exchange (KRX), Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE), and the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) from 2004 to 2013. We also conduct an event study using the measure of the uncertainty of the GDP growth rate (based on IMF statistics) in 55 target countries. Design/methodology - We measure the abnormal return (AR) using the market-adjusted model. We test the significance of the AR and the cumulative abnormal return (CAR) using a one-sample t-test. We examine the characteristics of the CARs depending on whether the target company is listed by applying a difference analysis using CAR as a test variable. In addition, we set CAR (-5, +5) as a dependent variable to identify the cause of the listing effect, and test both the financial characteristic variables of the acquirer and the collective characteristic variables of the merger as independent variables in the multiple regression analysis. Findings - First, we find the listing effect of cross-border M&As in the KRX, SSE, and TWSE, which represent the capital markets in Korea, China, and Taiwan, respectively. This listing effect persists during the global financial crisis and has a negative effect on the wealth of acquiring shareholders, especially when the target countries are emerging markets. Second, greater uncertainty regarding the target countries' economic growth in cross-border M&As has a negative effect on the wealth of acquiring firms' shareholders. Third, our empirical analysis demonstrates that the listing effect is attributable to the fact that firms listed in a target country with greater uncertainty of economic growth are more directly and greatly exposed to uncertain capital markets through stock markets, than are unlisted firms. Originality/value - This study is significant in that it presents a new strategic perspective in the study of cross-border M&As by demonstrating empirically that the listing effect is attributable to the uncertainty regarding the economic development of the target firms' home countries.

  • Purpose - The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships among Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs), previous M&A experience, and the probability of deal completion in cross-border mergers and acquisitions (CBMAs). Since Chinese SOEs tend to be recognized by host countries as agents of their home country government, this study argues that SOEs will face difficulties in completing CBMA deals. However, the study expects that these difficulties may vary depending on whether the firm has previous M&A experience because firms can gain the knowledge and capabilities necessary to implement subsequent M&As successfully from past M&A experience. Design/methodology - To investigate our argument, we conduct a logistic regression using a sample of 363 CBMA deals from 304 Chinese publicly listed firms during 2007 to 2017. We used SOEs as an independent variable, experience of domestic and foreign M&As as moderating variables, respectively, and CBMA deal completion as the dependent variable. Findings - The study shows a negative and significant relationship between Chinese SOEs and the completion likelihood of CBMA deals. We find that this negative relationship is strengthened when the firm had prior domestic M&A experience, whereas foreign M&A experience alleviated the negative relationship. Originality/value - The issue of government ownership has remained unclear since government intervention has both advantages and disadvantages in pursuing CBMAs. Our findings support literature that argues Chinese SOEs face legitimacy concerns in the host countries, thereby lowering their CBMA deal completion likelihood. Furthermore, the study enriches the literature by identifying different moderating effects of domestic and foreign M&A experience on the negative relationship between SOEs and CBMA deal completion.

  • Purpose - There is a paucity of literature dealing with exporters' compliance issues in e-commerce exports. This study aims to fill this gap in the literature by exploring customs initiatives to facilitate the e-commerce exports of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the changed compliance environment. The central question of this study was divided into five subquestions: first regarding the pros and cons of trade facilitation measures for Korean e-commerce export clearance; second and third questions about risk and compliance management for facilitation fourth about instruments, the changes in Korean SME compliance burden in e-commerce exports, and ways to improve trade facilitation for e-commerce exports. Design/methodology - This study adopts a qualitative approach using a case study method to understand the SME experience in Korean e-commerce export compliance procedures. A qualitative method was selected to answer research questions requiring an in-depth understanding of the regulatory procedures of customs administration and exporters' compliance burden. Because this study addresses the changing compliance environment for which statistical data is insufficient, a quantitative method is considered inappropriate. Based on the approach, data were collected using multiple sources, including an extensive literature review, interviews, and field observations. Thematic pattern matching was applied to interpret the data. Findings - This study examined ways to support SMEs in the changed e-commerce export compliance environment. Facilitation measures for e-commerce exports have contributed to SME access to global markets, simplifying export clearance procedures, and saving exporters' compliance costs. However, such instruments are limited in promoting SME compliance capabilities to cope with intensified competition and strengthened controls over foreign exporters in cross-border e-commerce. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of reshaping facilitation measures for e-commerce exports based on risk and compliance management theories to a system encouraging exporters' voluntary compliance. Originality/value - This study's academic significance derives from verifying the relationship between trade facilitation instruments and risk and compliance management procedures using an actual case in Korea. It is also of practical importance in navigating the directions for improving facilitation measures for e-commerce exports in a changed compliance environment.
