In response to drastic environmental changes, companies have been continuously rebalancing their resources and capabilities to sustain their competitive status or to survive difficult times. The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of sudden environmental changes on the competitive status of a firm and to identify the internal factors that differentiate sustainer and non-sustainer groups. To achieve this goal, we selected 85 representative IT and non-IT companies from the S&P 500 companies and investigated them with respect to the change in their five-year competitive status since the 2008 global financial crisis. As a concrete performance measure, the concept of perceived competitive status (PCS) was introduced, and four distinct PCS categories were identified by using the stock price changes during the selected period. The four distinct PCS categories are "sustaining," "drifting," "deep sunken," and "bouncing back." Discriminant analysis was performed on these four distinct PCS categories. The empirical study conducted showed that revenue and cost efficiency are the most discriminating factors, especially in the economic recovery period. In particular, stronger financial liquidity was observed in high-performing "bouncing back" companies than in the other category companies.

This study is to examine the foreign direct investment (FDI) response to real effective exchange rate volatility in Vietnam by using the vector autoregression model. The research data are quarterly frequency data in the period from 2004:Q1 to 2019:Q2. The data on real effective exchange rate were collected from the statistics of Bruegel (Europe) and FDI data were collected from the International Financial Statistics. The quantitative study was conducted with two steps: (1) measuring exchange rate volatility by the GARCH(1,1) method; and (2) examining the impact of exchange rate volatility on FDI in the context of the global financial crisis. The estimation results show that FDI responded significantly to real exchange rate volatility with the lag of 3 periods at the 5% significance level. The FDI response increased after the exchange rate volatility with the lag of 3 periods, and the impact extended to the lag of 6 periods, and then gradually stabilized. The research findings indicate that FDI in Vietnam responds positively and significantly to exchange rate volatility with the lag of 3 periods. Simultaneously, the negative impact of the global financial crisis in 2008 with the lag of 2 periods leads to a slight decrease in FDI inflows into Vietnam.

This paper investigates a link between the significant decline in the growth of domestic demand and the dampened ripple effects from the export sector in Korea since the East Asian financial crisis. The dampened ripple effects are closely linked to the changed investment behaviors of the Korean large-sized exporting firms since the crisis: they do not invest in their export earnings any more to create new industries; they tend to use more foreign value added contents for their exports and to increase outward direct investment by actively participating in global value chains. The paper also examines a link between the growth of domestic demand and the growth of household disposable income and presents reasons for the decline in the growth of household disposable income since the East Asian financial crisis.

This paper analyzes why the global financial crisis in 2008 severely affected Asia's trade. Asia has been suffering from the falls in export demand from developed countries. However the abrupt trade declines in Asia are not fully explained by reactions to this as in previous experiences. The question is why the financial crisis in 2008 brought about the abrupt and deep collapse in world trade, while other world-wide recessions had more moderate effects on world trade. This paper shows that the dynamic relationship between trade and trade finance is one important factor in explaining this question. This paper also applies the Granger (causality) test to uncover different relationships in the developed and developing economies and show different results for different countries in Asia. We employ a Markov-Switching FAVAR (Factor Augmented VAR) to show that global liquidity shocks are important factors in explaining the huge and abrupt trade drops in Asia.

본고는 21세기 데이터자본주의 시대의 강력한 물적 토대인 네트워크 테크놀로지와 그 사회문화적 메타포를 비판적으로 사유하여 예술적 가능성으로 전유한 테크노컬처 사례들을 연구대상으로 삼았다. 그리하여 그것의 대안성과 문화정치적 의미를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 2008년 글로벌 금융위기 이후 본격화된 데이터자본주의의 속성과 영향력, 그리고 그 반동으로 등장한 문화예술적 콘텍스트를 검토하였다. 본고에서 고찰한 첫 번째 사례인 퍼더필드의 <0달러 노트북컴퓨터> 워크숍은 예술과 테크놀로지가 서로 관계하는 배움과 교육을 통해 시민들이 사회변화에 참여할 수 있는 방법에 대해 사유할 수 있는 유용한 범례를 제공하였다. 두 번째 사례인 그리스의 해커스페이스 HSGR은 글로벌 금융위기로 인한 그리스의 재정위기, 국가의 창작지원 감소 등의 상황에서 공동의 진보적 '문화 공유지' 유형을 새롭게 제안하여 네트워크 테크놀로지를 위기 극복의 동력으로서 개발하였다. 세 번째 사례인 파올로 치리오의 <글로벌 다이렉트> 프로젝트는 사회적 거버넌스의 지배적 유형으로서의 국가와 커뮤니티 시스템을 향한 비평적 시민의식을 제고하였다. 이러한 테크노컬처 사례들은 네트워크 테크놀로지의 의미화 가능성에 주목하여, 문화정치의 맥락에서 진보적 정치 이념과 그것의 예술적 실현의 전통을 서로 조합하고 재발견한 실천이라 평가할 수 있겠다.

Purpose - This paper investigates whether financial crises could be the indicators of capital outflow waves or vice versa in Korea. Korea has experienced two severe financial crises, which are the Asian Crisis and the global financial crisis. Although there were many variables associated with these two remarkable events, one notable variable was gross capital outflows, which had significantly increased around them. Motivated by existing literature which built theoretical frameworks explaining the relationship between capital flight and financial crises, we examine the empirical evidence for this relationship. Design/methodology - We use panel data from 61 countries including Korea from 1980 to 2009 to study the associations between capital flight and diverse financial crises such as banking, currency, debt, and inflation crises. To be specific, we use the complementary log-log model to see whether capital outflow waves are reliable indicators for domestic financial crises. Findings - The results show, first, that banking, currency, and inflation crises are associated with capital flight. Second, debt crises are also associated with capital flight, but the result is not robust to different specifications. And, third, the positive associations between capital flight and crises are mainly driven by banking flows rather than FDI and portfolio flows. Originality/value - This paper is one of a few studies that investigates domestic (not foreign) investors' behavior during financial turmoil. Furthermore, theoretical studies which provide contradictory explanations on the movements of gross capital outflows during financial crises emphasizes the importance of empirical evidence in this paper.

본 연구는 전통적으로 사용되는 수출수요모형을 사용하여 환율변동이 동아시아 국가에 대한 한국의 기계류 중간재 수출에 미치는 영향을 글로벌 금융위기 전후기간으로 나누어 분석하였다. 기계류 중간재의 수출에 대한 환율변동성의 추정결과에 대해 타당성을 확보하기 위하여 이동평균 표준편차, 12개월 고정평균 표준편차, GARCH 모형 등의 환율변동에 대한 다양한 측정방법을 사용하였다. 변수들 간의 장기적 관계는 Pedroni(1999)가 제안한 패널 공적분 검정 및 DOLS & FMOLS 패널 회귀분석을 적용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과, 글로벌 금융위기 이전에는 환율변동성이 기계류 총수출 및 일반기계, 전자기계, 운송장비 등의 중간재의 수출에 긍정적인 영향을 미치지만 정밀기계 중간재의 수출에는 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 글로벌 금융위기 이후에는 환율변동성이 기계류 총수출 및 모든 기계류 중간재의 수출에 부정적인 영향을 주는 정반대의 결과가 나타났다. 글로벌 금융위기 전후의 전체 기간을 분석대상으로 하는 경우 정밀기계 중간재의 수출에 대해 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤고 그 외 기계류 중간재의 수출 및 기계류 총수출에는 부정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

We examine which traditional asset pricing variables together with bank-specific accounting variables explain the cross-sectional variation of future bank stock returns, using a firm-level data of eight Asian countries. Our empirical evidence shows that exchange rate risk, firm size, the book-to-market ratio, and the net income ratio are important in explaining future bank stock returns during normal times. However, during the Global Financial Crisis period, different variables such as local market beta, illiquidity risk, equity ratio, and off-balance sheets ratio were statistically significant. Thus, researchers and policy practitioners should monitor these variables during normal times as well as during times of crisis.

본 연구는 2003년 11월부터 2013년 8월까지의 전국, 수도권, 비수도권, 강남, 강북지역 아파트 매매가격의 합리적 버블을 전체기간과 글로벌금융위기 전 후로 기간을 나누어 상태공간모형과 칼만필터를 이용해 추정하였다. 전체기간 중에 강남은 합리적 버블이 25.4%로 가장 높고 강북 21.3%, 수도권 20.1%, 전국 18.9%, 비수도권 14.3%로 나타났다. 글로벌 금융위기 이전에는 강남이 26.7% 강북 19.3%로 강남이 강북보다 약 7.4% 정도 버블이 높게 형성되어 있다. 이에 반해 글로벌 금융위기 이후에는 강남 13.2%, 강북 10.7%로 버블이 많이 붕괴되었으나 오히려 비수도권 지역은 이전기간 4.2%에서 이후기간 19.0%로 약 15% 상승을 하였다. 이는 강남, 강북을 포함한 수도권은 매매가격이 하락하고 임대료는 상승을 하였고 비수도권 지역은 공공기관 이전 등 각종 개발호재로 인해 매매가격이 상승한 것이 주요원인으로 생각된다.

Purpose - This study measures how competitive securities broker-dealers are in the Korean financial markets. It aims to test whether the markets are perfectly competitive or monopolistic since the global financial crisis of 2008. Research design, data, and methodology - We apply the method developed by Panzar and Rosse (1987), H-statistics, which offers an index for the competitiveness as well as statistical tests. The dataset in use is retrieved mainly from the quarterly statements of the financial services companies by the Financial Statistics Information System of the Financial Supervisory Service. General information on officers and employees is utilized in addition to balance sheets and income statements of securities companies. Results - H-statistics for 2009-2015 is about 0.7 that is a robust estimate regardless of model specifications such as full trans-log, partial trans-log, and Cobb-Douglas regression equations. H-statistics for each year is also computed in similar ways in that it varies between 0.3 and 0.9. Conclusions - Since the global financial crisis, H-statistics concludes that securities broker-dealer markets in Korea is neither perfectly competitive nor monopolistic. It evidences that the markets are rather monopolistically competitive. The trend in annual H-statistics leads to the same conclusion but the result is not such stable that overall H-statistics implies.
