In the case of Banque Paribas V. Banco Santander in England for the reimbursement request of deferred payment credit by the nominated bank, the L/C-issuing bank refused to pay the proceeds at maturity because of a fraudulent transaction. The reason of refusal was that the nominated bank, Banco Santander, had no right of payment in deferred credit before its maturity if it made payment of proceeds without notice to the issuing bank, that is, payment not based upon a credit transaction but on its own account. However, in the case of ADIB V. Fortis Bank in America, the New York court made the decision that the deferred payment bank could not refuse to reimburse to the nominated bank, Fortis Bank, because of fraud. Its decision was based on the UCP600. We have analyzed and investigated the above two cases-one was an English court's decision and the other an American's. The English court's decision was made under UCP500, but the American court's was made under UCP600, which was revised in 2007. As a result, we can expect that from now on in deferred payment credit transactions, the power of the nominated bank will be greater than before, but the issuing bank will bear the risk of the beneficiary's fraud, so the issuing bank will be hesitant to issue deferred payment credit. Notwithstanding, we thought that the New York court decision would come into effect in the activation of deferred payment credit in practical trade transactions.

In 1981, Chile has fundamentally reformed the public pension system from the pay-as-you-go system (PAYGs) to the full funding defined contribution system managed by the private funding companies. The Chilean privatization reform influenced not only the neighbor South American countries but also the advanced countries. The United Kingdom contracted out the state earning related pension system. Australia and Sweden recently introduced the private investment accounts system. And now the hot debates on the privatization of the social security pension is going on in the United States of America. This wind of privatizing the public pension system is being backed up by the New Liberalism, the nowadays' strongest ideology. Besides, the theoretical and idealogical debate between the World Bank and the ILO/ISSA was happened in the middle of 1990s. The World Bank, the supporter of the international financial capital, insisted the introducing of the full funding individual accounts system and the abolition of the existing PAYGs. The ILO/ISSA apposed the World Bank's policies and advocated the moderate reform of the PAYGs. In this paper, I reviewed the Chilean reform, the World Bank's report and the opposing argument of the ILO/ISSA against it, and analysed the core issues of the two sides. Also, I tried to present the suggestions to the Korean public pension systems. Through the discussing the debate, we made certain of the importance of the basic issues in the social security system like equity vs. adequacy, inter-generational redistribution vs. intra-generational redistribution and welfare vs. economy, once again.

Todays, L/C transactions in international trade are governed by UCP 500 and eUCP. But UCP 500 and eUCP do not cover all legal problem of L/C transactions. Therefore choice of laws in international L/C transactions are occurred. U.S.A. has an enacted law (UCC ${\S}5-Letter$ of Credit) to govern L/C transaction. But other countries has no special enacted law to govern L/C transaction. The reason is that there are difference between legal attitude of U.S.A. and other countries. American law considers L/C as a special device made by merchants. Therefore U.S.A. applies UCC ${\S}5-Letter$ of Credit instead of general contract law. UCC ${\S}5-Letter$ of Credit includes provisions of warranties, remedies, and so on that UCP 500 and eUCP do not include. But the liabilities of the Issuing Bank on the wrongful dishonor in L/C transaction is very important legal problem. First, this study is to justify concepts of honor and dishonor, and sufficient conditions for dishonor of the issuing bank. in UCC. Second, this study is to examine closely the liabilities of the Issuing Bank on the wrongful dishonor in L/C transaction. Third, this study is suggest distinctive features on the Liabilities to wrongful dishonor of the issuing bank in UCC ${\S}5-Letter$ of Credit and our trader's matters to be attended to L/C transactions governed by UCC.

2008 began with the American financial crisis which gave way to the liquidity crisis (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) situation in which 'the withdrawal of investment initiated from the insufficiency of the U.S. subprime mortgage loan companies', 'the large size loss situation of the financial company (Bear Stearns) due to the American structured bond insufficiency' and the second half opening part national debt mortgage company. Within the American financial crisis was propagated the crisis of international derivatives. Due to this, the withdrawal of foreign investment progressed in the interior of a country with the considerable. By the end of 2007, the exchange rate fluctuation was absorbed in the domestic financial circle on the belief the potentiality of the domestic financial market had been growing drastically through the expansion of the foreign currency debt according to this and it came to the defence but while the exchange rate jumped up to the dollar shortage according to the international crisis, the small and medium companies making the banks and exchange rate-related derivatives contract were going bankrupt due to the derivatives loss. The small and medium factories establish the bank exchange rate-related derivatives has nose (KIKO), pivot (PIVOT), and snowball (Snowball) etc. at that time and the damage which it is the KIKO grasped at 6 end of the months in 2008 caused by reaches to 1 thousand billion 4 thousand hundred million dollars. Small and medium companies in which the dollar which it has to denounce among small and medium companies bearing the KIKO contract in fact with the Knock-In generation city bank exceeds the amount of sales were known to be 68 enterprises among 480 enterprises. This paper departs in this awareness of a problem and tries to look into the risk factor of the derivatives, including nose and study the essential ring risk management plan of small and medium manufacturer.

본 논문은 캘리포니아의 중국계와 한국계의 양 소수민족은행을 비교하여 한국계 민족은행과 한국계 이민사회의 경제적 관계를 해명하고자 한다. 통상 미국 내 소수민족경제권의 경제적 성과 차이는 문화적 차이 또는 비공식금융의 기여로 설명되는 경우가 많으나 우리는 공식금융제도의 적극적 역할에 주목하여 금융제도와 소수민족경제의 관련성을 강조한다. 동시에 한국계 미국은행은 성장, 수익성, 은행전략 면에서 중국계 소수민족은행과 구분된다는 점을 중시하여, 은행전략 측면에서, 중국계와 한국계가 고객과의 장기적 거래를 중시하는 유사한 관계은행전략을 구사하지만, 은행의 대출분포와 예금분포는 서로 다르다는 점을 지적하였다. 이는 각 소수민족은행이 다른 경영성과를 낳는 이유가 된다. 한국계은행의 경우 대출구조가 사업대출 중심이며, 이자 낳지 않는 예금의 비중이 중국계 민족은행보다 상대적으로 높은 사실이 한국계 소수민족은행이 높은 성장을 하게 된 배경이다. 따라서 관계은행전략이라는 개념만으로는 다수의 소수민족은행의 차이를 설명할 수 없으므로, 본 연구는 한국계와 중국계의 이민사회 그 자체의 특수성에 주목하였다. 중국계 미국인의 경우 인구구성의 이질성과 해외자본의 영향이, 한국계 미국인의 경우 동질적 인구 및 사업구성과 착 한국계 미국인 금융기관의 경쟁력이 특징적이다.

DNA barcoding, an inventory of DNA sequences from a standardized genomic region, provides a bio-barcode for identifying and discovering species. Several recent studies suggest that the sequence diversity in a 648 bp region of the mitochondrial gene for cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) might serve as a DNA barcode for identifying animal species such as North American birds, insects and fishes. The present study tested the effectiveness of a COI barcode in discriminating Korean bird species. We determined the 5' terminus of the COI barcode for 92 species of Korean birds and found that species identification was unambiguous; the genetic differences between closely related species were, on average, 25 times higher than the differences within species. We identified only one misidentified species out of 239 specimens in a genetic resource bank, so confirming the accuracy of species identification in the banking system. We also identified two potential composite species, calling for further investigation using more samples. The finding of large COI sequence differences between species confirms the effectiveness of COI barcodes for identifying Korean bird species. To bring greater reliability to the identification of species, increased intra- and interspecies sampling, as well as supplementation of the mitochondrial barcodes with nuclear ones, is needed.

An Environmental Specimen Bank (ESB) is an archive for samples that can be used to document and assess the quality of the environment in which we live. An ESB program looks at changes in the concentration of human and environmental specimens over long periods of time through retrospective analysis of archived samples of a particular area collected at regular intervals. The idea of ESB was first proposed by German and American scientists in the early 1970s and has been established since 1979 in Germany, USA, and Japan. Korea plans to establish a National Environmental Specimen Bank (NESB) in 2010. The NESB will be able to assess and improve the quality of analytical measurements as well as to compare the past and current environmental quality as a time capsule. The concept and design for the NESB facility was developed and its Standard Operation Procedures (SOPs) are being developed based on an evaluation of ESBs and SOPs of Germany, USA, and Japan. Environmental specimens proposed for banking are based on typical representatives of every level of the food chain from each type of ecosystem that are widely distributed thus enabling comparisons between different sampling areas. Through retrospective analysis of environmental specimens, the NESB will improve the reliability of environmental monitoring, ecological risk assessment, and health impact assessment.

본 연구는 미국에서 화교가 제일 많이 분포되어 있는 곳 중의 한 곳인 캘리포니아 주 화교 은행의 성장과 수익성의 경제적 실적을 한인 은행과 비교하여 그러한 실적의 차이가 나타나는 원인을 사회자본의 관점에서 재해석하여 화교사회자본의 변화를 추적하고자 한다. 미국에서 소수계민족은행은 소수계민족경제 번영의 중요한 결정요인으로 밝혀져 왔다. 그러나 역으로 소수계민족은행의 경영전략과 경영실적 역시 소수계민족경제가 가진 특성에 의해 다시 규정된다. 소수계은행은 시장적 은행전략을 취하는 미국의 주류은행과 달리 관계적 은행전략을 공통적으로 취하고 있다. 그러나 한인은행과 화교은행은 경영실적과 경영전략에서 미세한 차이를 보이고 있는데 역사적 차이와 동질성/비동질성의 차이 외에도 전자의 경우 사업대출의 비중이, 후자의 경우 부동산 대출의 비중이 높은 것 등의 차이가 있다. 본 연구는 관계적 은행전략을 넘어서는 양 소수계 민족은행의 경영실적과 경영전략의 차이가 각 민족은행의 시장기반인 소수계사회의 문화적 특성에 기인한 것임을 밝히며 이를 사회자본으로 개념화한다. 이러한 사회, 문화적 차이를 사회자본에 관한 연구와 연결함으로써 이러한 사회자본의 차이가 두 소수계은행의 경영행태를 다르게 하여 결과적으로 경영실적의 차이로 나타나게 하는 과정을 추적하여 사회자본 개념의 확대에 기여하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 스펙트럼 분석과 계절성 선형 모델을 이용하여 intra,-day 콜센터 통화량 예측에 필요한 계절성 변수를 찾아내는 방법을 제시한다. 제시한 방법을 북미 지역의 어느 은행의 5분 단위 콜센터 통화량에 실증 적용하여 기존의 통계적 방법으로는 입증할 수 없었던 월 단위 계절성 변수가 유의함을 보인다. 새로이 찾아진 연수가 intra-day 콜센터 통화량 예측능력을 향상시키는지 확인하기 위해서 새로운 변수를 포함하는 계절성 선형 모델과 이 변수를 포함하지 않은 계절성 선형 모델의 익일 통화량 예측능력을 비교 평가한다. 평가결과 새로운 변수를 포함한 모델이 우수하다는 결과를 얻었다.
