Though crowdfunding has emerged as a cost-effective means to market innovative products and a channel for financial resource acquisition, our understanding about what makes a successful crowdfunding is still limited. This study is motivated by the presence of the inconsistency that both entrepreneurs and investors pay more attention to capabilities required for developing prototype products rather than capabilities needed to deliver the promised products in crowdfunding. By drawing insights from studies about liability of newness and legitimacy in institutional theory, this study argues that startups can overcome the liability of newness, earn investor trust, and successfully complete crowdfunding campaigns by effectively presenting visible and invisible capabilities. This study presents a set of testable propositions predicting the likelihood of crowdfunding success and explains the theoretical and practical value of the proposed conceptualization of startup capabilities.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of holding period of IPOs on BHAR(CAR) of IPOs in IPO process, especially focused on business relationship of underwriters and institutional investors. Design/methodology/approach - This paper collected monthly IPO fund data in KOSDAQ during 2004 to 2012 and OLS(Ordinary Least Square) was hired to analyze the data. Findings - Underwriters do allocate IPOs with high BHAR(CAR) to business-related institutional investors holding IPOs longer to make the price of IPOs stable (market-making) for underewriters. Research implications or Originality - This paper finds the impact of holding period of IPOs on BHAR(CAR) of IPOs in IPO process, especially focused on business relationship of underwriters and institutional investors in Korea.

Firm innovativeness and financing capacity are critical signals to stakeholders as they are key drivers of firm performance and competitiveness and indicate the firm's ability to fund its operations and growth initiatives. Based on signaling theory, this study investigates the signaling effect of a firm's innovativeness and creditworthiness and examines its signaling effectiveness. Using Korean innovation data and Korea Investors Service financial data for nine years, the findings indicate that a firm's technological innovation has a negative impact on its credit ratings, while non-technological innovation has a positive impact. Furthermore, a firm's credit ratings positively impact its performance. The current study contributes to the literature on signaling theory by exploring the signaling effect of a firm's innovativeness and creditworthiness. The findings provide insights for managers on how to send and monitor signals to stakeholders.

시장예측 문제를 해결하기 위하여 과거부터 꾸준한 연구가 진행되어왔다. 하지만 금융 시계열 데이터에는 분산이 일정하지 않으며 Non-stationarity 등 예측을 하는 것에 있어서 여러 가지 방해 요인이 존재한다. 또한 광범위한 데이터 변수는 기존에 사람이 직접 경험적으로 선택하는 것에 한계가 있기 때문에, 모델이 변수를 자동으로 추출할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 여러 가지 금융 시계열 데이터의 문제를 고려하여 타임 스텝 정규화를 제안하며 자동 변수 추출을 위해 LSTM 형태의 오토 인코더 모델을 학습하였으며 LSTM 네트워크를 이용하여 시장 예측하는 모델을 제안한다. 해당 시스템은 실제 주식 거래나 시장 거래를 위하여 온라인 학습이 가능하며 긴 기간을 테스트 구간으로 실험한 결과 미래의 수익률을 예측하는 것에 있어서 우수한 성능을 보였다.

The growth-share matrix is a portfolio planning tool developed by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) to assist competitive positioning in the international market including those in the construction industry. This matrix is helpful in balancing the firm's cash-flow, and it can suggest strategic directions for each business unit. However, its effectiveness and applicability have long been debated in the academic field due to the complex and unique industrial context of construction. To solve the dispute, this research clarifies the applicability of theories underlying the growth-share matrix to the construction industry. Empirical research based on actual financial data of Korean construction firms is adopted for the statistical analysis including one-way analysis of variance and correlation analysis. The results of this research show that empirical findings on the relationship between performance variables. In this context, this research can provide important insights on the concept of portfolio management in the construction industry.

As international construction market increases, the importance of risk management in international construction project is emphasized. Unfortunately, current risk management practice does not sufficiently deal with project risks. Although a lot of risk analysis techniques have been introduced, most of them focus on project's external unexpected risks such as country conditions and owner's financial standing. However, because those external risks are difficult to manage and take preemptive action, we need to concentrate on project inherent risks. Based on this premise, this paper proposes a project-oriented risk mining approach which could detect and extract project risk factors automatically before they are materialized. This study presents a methodology regarding how to extract potential risks which exist in owner's project requirements and project tender documents using state of the art data analysis method such as text mining. The project-oriented risk mining approach is expected to effectively reflect project characteristics to the project risk management and could provide construction firms with valuable business intelligence.

Purpose - This paper examines whether the imposition of countervailing duties by the United States on undervalued foreign currency is legally consistent with the WTO's SCM Agreement. Design/methodology - The study uses a methodology that involves analyzing relevant WTO agreements, prior panel reports, Appellate Body decisions, and other legal documents. Findings - The findings suggest that to impose countervailing duties, certain legal requirements must be met, including financial contribution, benefit, and specificity. The paper also notes that when calculating the benefits of undervalued foreign currency, losses from import activities due to currency undervaluation must be considered. Additionally, classifying all exports to the US under specific industries or business groups is likely to be inconsistent with the SCM Agreement. Originality/value - Even the US countervailing measures on exchange rate subsidies may not comply with WTO regulations due to incorrect calculation of benefits and a lack of specificity, however, it suggests that when intervening in the foreign exchange market, the measures should aim to achieve only minimum policy goals.

본 연구는 한국 주식 시장인 KRX 데이터에 중점을 둔 투자 전략의 최적화를 목표로 하였다. 전통적인 기술 분석 방법은 투자자들의 경험에 의존하여 파라미터를 선택하였다. 하지만 이 연구에서는 기존의 경험에 기반한 파라미터 선택 대신 유전 알고리즘을 사용하여 파라미터를 최적화했다. 결과적으로, 이 전략은 상승장과 하락장 모두에서 buy-and-hold 전략보다 더 나은 성과를 보였다. 이는 기술 분석의 파라미터 최적화의 중요성을 강조하며, 더 효과적인 투자 전략 개발의 가능성을 보여준다.
