This study analyzed the effects of housing wealth on the balance accounts of elderly households with an age of over 60 facing the asset decumulation period, capitalizing upon an ordered logit model for the 2011 household finance survey data. Out of some variables representing personal and social characteristics, the age and waged worker variables had a positive effect, but the number of household, low education level, living in the apartment and capital region variables negatively affected the balance accounts of elderly households. Some variables reflecting economic wealth and financial strategies such as the attitude of risk-taking, ordinary income and the ratio of financial assets had a positive impact, but other variables such as DSR did a negative one on the balance accounts of the elderly households. The ownership of housing wealth variable positively, but the ratio of housing assets variable negatively affected the balance accounts of the elderly households, which could be derived from the duality of housing as both consumption goods and assets. However, the ownership of other real estates and the ratio of them in the total assets variables had a negative impact on the balance accounts of the elderly households. Furthermore, since the financial asset-debt ratio worsened the balance accounts of the elderly households with both housing and other real estates, it is implied that the purchase of real estates with excessive bank loans could make them dangerous.

프로젝트 파이낸싱은 프로젝트 자체의 사업성과 프로젝트 현금흐름에 근거하여 발생하는 수익을 담보로 사업자금을 차입하고 운영 시 발생하는 수익으로 대출금을 상환하는 재원조달방식이다. 이 금융기법은 주로 광산 및 천연자원개발 사업에서 수 백년동안 이용되어 왔으며, 우리나라의 경우는 대규모 SOC민간투자사업에서 주로 활용하고 있다. 최근 우리나라 SOC민간투자사업에서는 기존에 정부와 민간사업자간에 체결하였던 실시협약 상의 재원조달 구조를 새롭게 변경하거나 유리한 금융기법을 이용하는 사례가 빈번히 나타나고 있다. 본 연구는 우리나라에서 프로젝트 파이낸싱 기법으로 어떻게 SOC민간투자사업에 투자하고 있는 지 분석하고 현황을 파악하였다. 또한 민간투자사업의 자본구조와 Refinancing의 발생사유를 분석하였으며, 광주제2순환도로, 신공항고속도로, 천안논산고속도로 민간투자사업에서 Refinancing 사례도 분석하였다. 그리고, Refinancing에 대한 효과가 어느 정도 인지 측정을 하였다. 결론적으로 Refinancing 효과가 사업에 대한 수익성을 높이는 효과와 부채비율이 높아져 운영위험이 증가하는 것을 실증적으로 보여주었다.

본 연구는 기업의 자본조달행태를 가장 잘 설명할 수 있는 이론을 자본조달순서 이론으로 대별하고 한국기업의 자본조달행동에 대한 설명력을 실증분석하였다. 실증분석결과는 첫째, 투자안에 소요되는 충분한 여유자금의 유무는 외부자본조달결정에 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있으며, 보통주보다 회사채를 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 현금과잉이 외부금융가능성에 음(-)의 영향을 미친다고 단정지을 수는 없다. 둘째, 기업의 위험이 증가할수록 부채사용의 증가를 예측하고 있으며, 정보비대칭에 관한 대용변수가 POT에서 주장하는 자본조달 신호로 작용하고 있지 않다. 이러한 결과는 투자안에 소요되는 내부자본이 부족하여 외부자본을 조달할 경우에 기업의 능력보다도 자본시장의 환경과 시장여건이 더욱 중요하다는 것을 시사하고 있다.

한국은행이 최근에 발표한 1990년 이후 인쇄업체의 기업경영 분석에 따르면 인쇄산업의 성장세는 주춤하거나 하락세를 보인 반면, 각 기업의 재무구조는 건실해 진 것으로 조사됐다. 외형보다는 내실화에 집중하는 경향은 97-98년을 전후로 뚜렷하게 나타났는데, 구제금융의 한파 이후 환율상승과 이자율 급등에 어려움을 겪었던 업체들이 기업의 내실 경영에 치중했기 때문이다. 기업 경영의 안정성이 점차 확보되는 가운데 몇가지 우려되는 점은 과다경쟁으로 인한 부가가치 하락과 99년 이후 양호해 지던 각종 지표들이 2002년 들어 주춤하는 양상을 보이고 있다는 점이다. 한국은행 발표자료를 업계의 성장성, 생산성, 손익의 관계비율, 매출액과 관련된 기업경영, 자산 및 부채 관계비율로 나누어 분석해 보았다.

This study deals with a research on Korean American economy and Korean banks operated in California where a large percentage of Korean residents in the U.S. is concentrated. Using date published by U.S. Census and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), quantitative analyses have been performed on the asset, employment, market share and other features of selected Korean American financial institutions. Also, each bank's status of financing and asset management are reviewed through the analysis of its balance sheets. The outcome of analysis on the status of Korean American banks are summarized as follows: First, Korean American banks are shown to be growing to become major banks with equivalent scale as mainstream banks. Second, the recently improved fundamentals of Korean American banks are identified. Third, the operational performances of Korean American banks are verified to be similar to the average of Californian banks.

In this study, the rate of return on investment used as a proxy variable for the entity's value and financial structure (liability ratio) is related to positive balance. This is consistent with the Static Tradeoff Theory (STT) that the entity's value and financial structure are related to a positive balance because the capital expense of a debt (tax-saving effects) that is less than its equity cost before it is in financial difficulty. Also, operating profitability (EBITDA/Sales), investment safety, total asset growth, net working capital and depreciation expenses are related to negative (-) with financial structure (liability ratio). This is the result of an analysis consistent with the Pecking Order Theory (POT). Fuel costs, borrowing, total asset turnover, financial costs, and tangible asset ratios have a significant positive relationship with the debt ratio. This is consistent with the agency theory and confirms that excessive chartering expenses, such as the bankrupt H company, are the main factors that pressure the financial structure of Korean ocean carriers.

Forfaiting is a trade finance facility whereby financial institution purchases accounts receivable from exporters, on a without recourse basis. After the adoption of K-IFRS in 2011, accounting for simple borrowing as usual negotiation increases debt ratio which in turn, worsens financial soundness of a company. Hence, exporting companies have their interest in forfaiting that enables book-off in order to decrease the borrowing. Along with the execution of URF 800 at ICC and increasing the interest of exporting companies into forfaiting, foreign exchange banks in Korea expand the development of products related to forfaiting. Upon surveying all these national banks of this matter, this paper identified an appropriate solution for the forfaiting practice.

It's well known that housing is one of the largest holdings in household wealth and at the same time the majority of households highly concentrate on it for their wealth accumulation. Coupled with a low interest rate and increasing housing price, the rationale is conspicuous and the propensity to debt-financed consumption becomes strengthened. This research was to examine the risk of home financing. In doing so, the study utilized several secondary data to identify the characteristics of households who finance loans for home buying in three regions of the nation - so-called Bubble 7, Seoul Metropolitan Area, and others. Based on the 2009 KB survey, the major findings were as follows: the majority of the studied households in Seoul Metropolitan Area who owned a house lived in rental housing, housing accounted for 89% of the household wealth, and home loans taken on were a ballon payment amortized for a short-term period (5 years) with an adjustable interest rate. In addition, the payment method most of the households depend on is income. The financing mechanism fueled debt load of the households, and further they are financially very vulnerable to such factors as increase in interest rate, unemployment and market downturn. In the absence of understanding the financial system, the consumption behavior leads to house-poor, so that financial accountability and ethics are addressed while the intervention of the government in home financing system should be more cautious but stimulate financial soundness in household wealth accumulation.

When cryptographic algorithms are implemented to provide countermeasures against the side-channel analysis, designers frequently employ the combined countermeasures between the first-order masking scheme and hiding schemes. Their combination can be enough to offer security and efficiency. However, if dummy operations can be distinguished from real operations, an attacker can extract the secret key with lower complexity than the intended attack complexity by the designer inserting the dummy operations. In this paper, we categorize types of variables used in a dummy operation when C language is employed. Then, we present the novel vulnerability that can distinguish dummy operations for all cases where the hiding schemes are applied using different types of variables. Moreover, the countermeasure is provided to prevent the novel vulnerability.

This paper empirically examines how capital structure inertia varies across industries and there is different in industries, and whether this fact is explained by product market competition using non-financial firms listed in KOSP market over periods of 1981 to 2015. In empirical test, I find that firms with more competition environment tend to have inertia behavior in making decision of capital structure. This implies that it is explained by debt discipline effect and it is substitution for product market competitions. Also I find that manager tends to take action actively making decision of capital structure when product market competition is low. Also I show that they use debt to constraint the free cash flow. As a result, I conclude that Korean non-financial firms do not have more strong inertia behavior in capital structure rather than U.S. firms. Second, using OLS estimation, inertia effect disappears while there is strong inertia effect in relationship between inertia and product market competition. This result suggests that transaction cost is not key factor in explaining inertia behavior of capital structure.
