Enormous losses of shareholders and consumers caused by the risks threatening today's business (e.g., accounting fraud and inside trading) have ignited the necessity of international regulations on corporate ethics and internal control, such as Basel II and SOX. Responding to these regulations, companies are establishing governance system, applying it consistently to the core competency of the company, and increasing the scope of the governance system. Recently occurred security related incidents require companies to take more strict accountability over information security. One of the results includes strengthening of legislation and regulations. For these reasons, introduction of information security governance is needed. Information security governance governs the general information security activities of the company (establishment of information security management system, implementation of information security solutions) in the corporate level. Recognizing that the information security is not restricted to IT domain, but is the issue of overall business, this study develops information security governance framework based on the existing frameworks and systems of IT governance. The information security governance framework proposed in the study include concept, objective, and principle schemes which will help clearly understand the concepts of the information security governance, and execution scheme which will help implement proper organization, process and tools needed for the execution of information security governance.

This paper proposes a hybrid intelligent system that predicts the failure of firms based on the past financial performance data, combining neural network and rough set approach, We can get reduced information table, which implies that the number of evaluation criteria such as financial ratios and qualitative variables and objects (i.e., firms) is reduced with no information loss through rough set approach. And then, this reduced information is used to develop classification rules and train neural network to infer appropriate parameters. Through the reduction of information table, it is expected that the performance of the neural network improve. The rules developed by rough sets show the best prediction accuracy if a case does match any of the rules. The rationale of our hybrid system is using rules developed by rough sets for an object that matches any of the rules and neural network for one that does not match any of them. The effectiveness of our methodology was verified by experiments comparing traditional discriminant analysis and neural network approach with our hybrid approach. For the experiment, the financial data of 2,400 Korean firms during the period 1994-1996 were selected, and for the validation, k-fold validation was used.

Purpose - Korean exports account for a vast proportion of Korean GDP, and large volumes of Korean products are sold in the United States. Identifying and characterizing actual and potential product hazards related to Korean products is critical to safeguard Korean export trade, as severe quality issues can impair Korea's reputation and reduce global consumer confidence in Korean products. In this study, we develop country-of-origin-based product risk analysis methods for social media with a specific focus on Korean-labeled products, for the purpose of safeguarding Korean export trade. Design/methodology - We employed two social media datasets containing consumer-generated product reviews. Sentiment analysis is a popular text mining technique used to quantify the type and amount of emotion that is expressed in the text. It is a useful tool for gathering customer opinions regarding products. Findings - We document and discuss the specific potential risks found in Korean-labeled products and explain their implications for safeguarding Korean export trade. Finally, we analyze the false positive matches that arise from the established dictionaries that were used for risk discovery and utilize these classification errors to suggest opportunities for the future refinement of the associated automated text analytic methods. Originality/value - Various studies have used online feedback from social media to analyze product defects. However, none of them links their findings to trade promotion and the protection of a specific country's exports. Therefore, it is important to fill this research gap, which could help to safeguard export trade in Korea.

We introduce about XBRL, eXtensible Business Reporting Language, which is widely accepted as the international standard language for business financial reporting. XBRL is a language for the electronic communication of business and financial data which is revolutionizing business reporting around the world. It provides major benefits in the preparation, analysis and communication of business information. It offers cost savings, greater efficiency and improved accuracy and reliability to all those involved in supplying or using financial data. XBRL is a kind of XML application based on the open Internet technologies. We propose a framework for enterprise information supply chain using XBRL Web services. A Web service is defined as a software system based on XML and designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network by the W3C. Web services are frequently just application programming interfaces (API) that can be accessed over a network, such as the internet and executed on a remote system hosting the requested services. An XBRL Web service-based enterprise information supply chain enables for companies to implement seamless information supply chains from businesses to financial institutions, to supervisory authorities, and to other stake holders for real time information access. And thereby it is expected to contribute to the increase in the value of companies due to the enhanced visibility and transparency of accounting and management.

Information Technology (IT) and the internet have been major drivers the changes in all aspects of the business processes and activities. They have brought major changes to the financial statements audit environment as well, which in turn has required modifications in audit procedures. There exist, however, certain difficulties with current audit procedures especially for the assessment of the level of control risk. This assessment is primarily based on the auditors' professional judgment and experiences, not based on the objective hies or criteria. To overcome these difficulties, this paper proposes a prototype decision support model named CRAS-CBR using case based reasoning (CBR) to support auditors in making their professional judgment on the assessment of the level of control risk of the general accounting system in the manufacturing industry. To validate the performance, we compare our proposed model with benchmark performances in terms of classification accuracy for the level of control risk. Our experimental results showed CRAS-CBR outperforms a statistical model (MDA) and staff auditor performance in average hit ratio.

It was 1976 when the preparation of consolidated financial sheet was first prescribed in this nation. Since then, the prescription has been revised several times. Revised in April 1992, enforcement regulations of the Securities Exchange Act provided that every listed corporation has its consolidated financial sheets and an auditor's opinion about them attached to its business report. In other words, the outside audit of consolidated financial sheets became inevitable. The Act of the Outside Audit of Corporation was revised in December 1993 to provide that all corporations must prepare consolidated financial sheets and receive the outside audit of the documents beginning their settlement of accounts in December 1994. In case of overseas corporations, consolidated financial sheets and the Equity Law have been applied since their settlement of accounts in December 1995. Now those sheets must be prepared by all local and overseas corporations that involve relations of governance or dependence. The preparation and public notification of consolidated financial sheets has been settled as a system. This nation has not yet introduced consolidated tax return using consolidated financial sheets. Such tax return system is already being used by most of the world's economic powers such as U.S., Europe and Japan. This study shows that reduction in corporation tax is the biggest reason for avoiding consolidated tax return system, even though the system can facilitate the settlement of consolidated accounting. Consolidated tax return, which is being implemented in about 20 countries including U.S., needs to be introduced by this nation where consolidated financial sheets are publicly notified.

본 연구는 이익조정과 회계보수주의에 대한 관계를 분석한다. 또한 이익조정과 보수주의에 대한 보다 분명한 관계를 분석하기 위해 이익조정의 개연성이 클 것으로 판단되는 적자회피기업과 Big-bath기업을 대상으로 이익조정과 보수주의의 관계를 분석하였다. 적자회피기업은 Subramanyam(1996)에 의해 당기의 비재량적 이익(당기순이익-재량적 발생액)이 음(-)이면서 보고이익이 양(+)인 기업(표본I) 또는 당기 비재량적 이익이 전연도 보고이익을 하회하면서 당기이익이 전연도 이익을 상회하는 기업(표본II)을 조정 전 이익의 적자를 회피하기 위한 적자회피기업으로 간주하였다. 그리고 Big-bath기업은 Strong and Meyer(1987)의 연구를 인용하여 비재량적 이익이 양(+)이면서 보고이익이 음(-)인 기업(표본III) 그리고 비재량적 이익이 전연도 보고이익을 상회하면서 당기보고이익이 전연도 보고이익을 하회하는 기업(표본IV)을 Big-bath기업으로 구분하였다. 적자회피기업과 Big-bath기업의 요건을 충족하지 않는 기업들은 비 이익조정기업으로 간주하여 주요표본기업들에 대한 통제기업으로 분류하였다. 분석결과, 적자회피기업(표본I, II)은 통제기업에 비해 회계 보수성이 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 적자회피기업의 이익상향 조정유인을 감안할 때 낮은 보수주의수준은 이익조정과 보수주의에 대한 음(-)의 관련성을 간접적으로 제시한 결과이다. 그러나 적자회피기업(표본I, II)만을 대상으로 이익조정과 보수주의에 대한 직접적인 관계를 분석한 결과, 유의한 양(+)의 결과가 나타났는데, 이는 적자회피 기업의 보수주의수준이 통제기업에 비해 낮을지라도 이들 기업들의 투자자 및 채권자들은 높은 발생액에 따른 대리비용을 고려하여 기업으로 하여금 보수주의를 강화하도록 요구하게 되고, 기업은 투자자 및 채권자의 요구를 반영한 결과일 수 있다.

Purpose : This study examines The impact of human resource investment in internal control on stock price crash risk. Effective internal control ensures that information provided is complete and accurate, financial statements are reliable. By overseeing management, internal control systems can reduce agency costs between management and outside parties. In Korea, firms have to disclose information about internal control systems. The working experience of human resources in internal control systems is also provided for interested parties. If a firm hires more experienced internal control personnel, it can better facilitate the disclosure of information. Prior studies reported that information asymmetry between managers and investors increases future stock price crash risk. Therefore, the longer working experience internal control personnel have, the lower probability stock crashes have. Research design, data and methodology : This study analyzed the association between the working experience of internal control personnel and crash risk using regression analysis on KOSPI listed companies for fiscal years 2016 through 2017. The sample consists of 1,034 firm-years of non-financial firms whose fiscal year end on December 31. Career spanning data of internal control personnel was collected from internal control reports. The professionalism(IC_EXP) was measured as the logarithm of the average working experience of internal control personnel in months. Negative conditional skewness(NSKEW) and down-to-up volatility (DUVOL) are used to measure firm-specific crash risk. Both measures are based on firm-specific weekly returns derived from the expanded market model. Results : We find that work experience in internal control environment is negatively related to stock price crashes. Specifically, skewness(NSKEW) and volatility (DUVOL) are reduced when firms have longer tenure of human resources in internal control division. The results imply that firms with experienced internal control personnel are less likely to experience stock price crashes. Conclusions : Stock price crashes occur when investors realize that stock prices have been inflated due to information asymmetry. There is a learning effect when internal control processes are done repetitively. Thus, firms with more experienced internal control personnel could manage their internal control more effectively. The results of this study suggest that firms could decrease information asymmetry by investing in human resources for their internal control system.

The effectiveness of Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools and processes has been recognized by the industry and owners are beginning to adopt Triple Bottom Line accounting practices, to enhance economic performance and environmental and social performance. However, the widespread and practical application of Green BIM remains largely unrealized. The authors identify that lack of understanding of the applicability of sustainability metrics to BIM design process is a significant barrier to this adoption. Through literature review this paper outlines the various sustainability metrics available to construction and elaborates on the potential of BIM for sustainable design. The paper maps and correlates applicable concepts of sustainability evaluation systems to BIM and describes the constraints in current BIM tools.
