FinTech, which has brought innovation to the financial industry thanks to the advancements in ICT since 2010, has contributed to the growth of the financial ecosystem and increased consumer benefits. Furthermore, there has been a growing demand for social responsibility and sustainability in financial institutions, which have a significant impact on governments, businesses, and people's lives. Despite this, many FinTech companies and traditional financial institutions are still in the early stages of establishing ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management philosophy or lack long-term plans. In this study, we aim to examine the impact of ESG management on the FinTech industry, focusing on representative domestic cases, and derive policy and institutional measures to spread it in the financial industry. Specifically, we will adopt MSCI rating indicators, which are internationally accepted by various industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and transportation, to evaluate the 35 ESG management subcategories of FinTech companies. As a result, a total of 22 compliance items were disclosed in the ESG report, and it was possible to confirm the detailed management. Through this, we intend to propose effective management strategies for the organizational structure, operations, programs, and performance evaluation of FinTech companies, which are positioning themselves as sustainable growth drivers in the domestic industry.

본 연구 과정에서는 국가뿌리산업진흥센터를 통한 뿌리 확인기업, 뿌리 전문기업을 기반으로 신용평가 공시자료가 있는 2,700여개의 기업체의 3년간 재무 상황 (2017년부터 2019년까지)를 확인하였다. 국내에서는 처음으로 이와 같은 뿌리산업의 재무적인 현황분석을 통하여 성장성, 수익성, 안정성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 심층 분석을 통하여 3년간의 뿌리기업 종사자, 총 매출액 변동 추이와 함께, 영업이익(률)과 순이익(률), 자산규모, 부채비율을 파악하였으며, 1인당 재무구조도 살펴보았다. 또한 뿌리기업을 종사자 규모별로 6단계로 구분하여 각 규모별 1인당 재무현황을 비교하였다. 각각의 단계는 10인 이하, 11~20인, 21~50인, 51~200인, 201~300인, 300인 이상이었으며, 1인 기업은 연구 편의상 제외하였다. 전반적으로 뿌리기업의 재무상황은 매우 안 좋은 침체 상황으로 판단되며, 조사기간 3년 동안 해를 거듭할수록 재무지표는 악화되는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 종사자 수가 적은 기업체일수록 재무 변동 폭이 불안정적으로 크고 심각할 수준으로 상황이 악화되는 것을 알 수 있다. 뿌리기업 중에서도 산업생태계의 가치사슬 기술적 시발점이 되는 주조산업도 같은 조사 방법을 통해 분석하였다, 주조산업도 업황이 매우 안 좋은 상황이며, 지속적인 종사인력 감소, 총 자산 및 매출액 감소가 심각한 수준이며, 영업이익(률)과 순이익(률)도 매우 저조한 상황임을 알 수 있었다. 어려운 상황이지만 이러한 상황을 극복할수 있는 지속 발전할 수 있는 적합하고 실현가능한 정책 방향이 필요한 이유이다.

The globalization of financial markets has broadened investment opportunities. International investors' investment portfolios consist of financial instruments from various countries; consequently, the risks associated with economic dependence among countries should be carefully considered. Step-down equity-linked securities (ELS) are a structured financial product that have recently become popular among Korean investors. Payoffs are based on two or three stock indices from different regions; therefore, dependence between the indices should be reflected in the risk analysis. In this study, we consider a regime-switching copula model to describe the joint behavior of two stock indices- the Eurostoxx50 and the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (HSCEI). These indices are commonly used as underlying assets of step-down ELS. Using historical data, we analyze the risk associated with step-down ELS through the probabilities of early redemption. A regime-switching copula model can accommodate complicated dependence. Thus, it should be considered in the risk analysis of step-down ELS.

The paper examines the level of disclosure on Islamic banks' performance in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The data was collected through content analysis of annual reports and financial statements of all fully-fledged Islamic banks working in the UAE over the period 2009 to 2013. Return on Assets is used as a proxy for the performance of Islamic banks while disclosure index is used as a proxy for Islamic banks' disclosure. Also, predetermined variables are used in the study like Size, Deposits, Non-Performing Investments and Capital to Risk Weighted Assets Ratio. Two-Stage Least-Square regression method is used to check the interdependence relationships between disclosure and performance of Islamic banks in the UAE. The results show a significant relationship between performance and disclosure in the UAE Islamic banks. Our regression results show that Islamic banks with higher levels of disclosure lead to higher operating performance. Furthermore, the performance has a great impact on the level of disclosure which means Islamic banks with high performance measures will disclose more information for investors and other institutions in order to reduce the cost of equity and increase their values in the market. This study is considered as a battery for further studies in the relationship between disclosure and financial performance of Islamic banks at a global level.

This study empirically examines herd behavior for fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector stocks under varied market return conditions and the period during the global financial crisis and its aftermath. We examine the sample of stocks trading on the Nifty FMCG Index of the Indian equity market from January 2008 up to December 2018 using the dispersion measure of cross sectional absolute deviation and examine its relationship with the market return to explore herd phenomenon. Quantile regression estimate is used and the results of the study validate rational asset pricing models as the sector does not display herding. In contrast, anti-herd behavior at lower and median quantile values is observed. A possible reason can be the non-cyclical nature of the industry where investors rely more on the fundamentals rather than crowd chasing. We also findthe absence of herd phenomenon during the market asymmetries of bull and bear phases, extreme movements, the period of the global financial crisis, and afterward. We further examine herding under the impact of the information technology (IT) industry and conclude that significant return movements in IT sector impact dispersions in the FMCG industry. Also, there is a co-varying risk between the two sectors confirming the spillover in an integrated market.

An economic signal in the real world usually reflects complex phenomena. One may have difficulty both extracting and interpreting information embedded in such a signal. A natural way to reduce complexity is to decompose the original signal into several simple components, and then analyze each component. Spectral analysis (Priestley, 1981) provides a tool to analyze such signals under the assumption that the time series is stationary. However when the signal is subject to non-stationary and nonlinear characteristics such as amplitude and frequency modulation along time scale, spectral analysis is not suitable. Huang et al. (1998b, 1999) proposed a data-adaptive decomposition method called empirical mode decomposition and then applied Hilbert spectral analysis to decomposed signals called intrinsic mode function. Huang et al. (1998b, 1999) named this two step procedure the Hilbert-Huang transform(HHT). Because of its robustness in the presence of nonlinearity and non-stationarity, HHT has been used in various fields. In this paper, we discuss the applications of the HHT and demonstrate its promising potential for non-stationary financial time series data provided through a Korean stock price index.

Purpose - This study aims to examine how the time variations of customer satisfaction influence retail firms' performance. Research design, data, and methodology - The study employs yearly time series customer satisfaction data of Korean retail secured from the National Customer Satisfaction Index(NCSI) for the 2011~2016 period. Our data includes a total of 90 observations of 15 retail firms in 5 different sector(department store, filling station, large discount store, open market, TV home shopping). We obtained the firm performance data from the KIS Value database. The variables for financial performance include sales and net profit. Results - The results show that customer satisfaction has dynamic effects on retail firms' performance. More specifically, the time variation of customer satisfaction has the moderating effect on the linkage between customer satisfaction and financial performance as well as direct effects on the firms' financial performance. Conclusions - Customer satisfaction has the current effect lasting over time on firm performance and changes of customer satisfaction in positive direction also impact on firm performance. Retail firms need to not only focus on improving customer satisfaction in the current term, but make efforts to continuously enhance customer satisfaction in the long term.

본 연구는 주가지수를 경제적 척도로 삼아 동아시아의 글로벌 및 역내 통합의 정도를 검토하였다. 주가에 대한 충격을 글로벌 충격, 역내 충격 및 개별 국가 충격으로 분해하고 구조적 VAR 모형을 사용하여 이들 충격이 동아시아 국가들의 주가 변동에 미친 영향을 살펴본 결과, 1997년 금융위기 이후 점차 축소되는 추세이나 개별 국가 충격이 여전히 가장 주도적인 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 글로벌 및 역내 충격은 대부분의 동아시아 국가에서 그 비중이 점차 확대되는 추세이나 영향력은 그리 크지 않았다. 본고의 분석 결과는 최근의 자유화 및 역내 통합 진전에도 불구하고 동아시아 국가들은 아직까지 상호 이질적이며 유럽 국가에 비해 비대칭적인 충격에 더 크게 노출되었음을 의미한다.

The study investigates how financial markets respond to a shock to tone and semantic similarity of the Bank of Thailand press releases. The techniques in natural language processing are employed to quantify the tone and the semantic similarity of 69 press releases from 2010 to 2018. The corpus of the press releases is accessible to the general public. Stock market returns and bond yields are measured by logged return on SET50 and short-term and long-term government bonds, respectively. Data are daily from January 4, 2010, to August 8, 2019. The study uses the Structural Vector Auto Regressive model (SVAR) to analyze the effects of unanticipated and temporary shocks to the tone and the semantic similarity on bond yields and stock market returns. Impulse response functions are also constructed for the analysis. The results show that 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 1-year bond yields significantly increase in response to a positive shock to the tone of press releases and 1-month, 3-month, 6-month, 1-year and 25-year bond yields significantly increase in response to a positive shock to the semantic similarity. Interestingly, stock market returns obtained from the SET50 index insignificantly respond to the shocks from the tone and the semantic similarity of the press releases.
