본 연구는 KOSPI 200 선물을 이용하여 옵션복제방식에 의한 포트폴리오 보험전략을 구축하고 KOSPI 200 지수와 KOSPI 200 구성주식의 일부로 이루어지는 개별 포트폴리오들을 대상으로 실증분석을 하였다. 본 연구의 결과에 의하면, 포트폴리오 보험전략의 성과는 헤지의 대상이 되는 현물포트폴리오별, 보험수준별, 재조정 기준별로 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. KOSPI 200 지수포트폴리오에 대한 헤지는 대체로 약세시장에서 포트폴리오 가치하락을 감소시키면서 시세상승에 편승할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. KOSPI 200 구성주식의 일부로 이루어진 포트폴리오에 대한 헤지는 수익성이 높고 베타값이 높으면서 시가총액이 큰 제조업이나 전기통신업에 속하는 기업의 주식으로 포트폴리오가 구성되었을 때 대체로 헤지성과가 높았다. 또한 KOSPI 200 지수포트폴리오는 보험수준을 낮게 할수록 헤지성과가 높은 것으로 나타난 반면, KOSPI 200 구성주식의 일부로 이루어진 포트폴리오의 경우에는 보험수준과 헤지성과간의 관계가 일정치가 않았다. 재조정 기준별로는 3% 재조정 기준을 적용하였을 때 헤지성과가 가장 높았으며, 가장 빈번하게 재조정을 해야하는 일별 재조정 기준에 의할 경우는 거래비용이 상대적으로 높았다.

This research attempts to calculate the vertical equity of National Health Insurance Contribution of locally provided policy holders by abilities to pay. Also, this longitudinal study examined the influence of abilities to pay and demographic characteristics on the health insurance premium. Using data from the Korea Welfare Panel Study, this study followed the self-employed households who continued to participate in the survey from 2011 to 2015. Kakwani's index of progressivity was measured as a measure of vertical equity and panel regression analysis was conducted by STATA program. The results of this research are as follows. First, from 2011 to 2015, the values of kakwani's index were negative according to composite income, which meant some levels of regressiveness of contribution. Secondly, panel regression analysis showed that the lowest household of composite income had a significantly negative effect on premiums, which also meant regressiveness. Based on the results, the author suggested political discussions on reorganizing the system of imposing the National Health Insurance contribution.

Equity-indexed annuities(EIAs) provide their customers with the greater of either the return linked to the underlying index or the minimum guaranteed return. Insurance companies have developed EIAs to attract customers reluctant to buy traditional fixed annuities because of low returns and also reluctant to buy mutual funds for fear of the high volatility in the stock market. This paper proposes a new type of EIA embedded with an outside barrier option with flexible monitoring period in order to increase its participation rate. It also derives an explicit pricing formula for this proposed product, and discusses numerical examples to show relationships among participation rate, barrier level, index volatility and correlation.

Recently, due to the worsening global economic recession, Korea which is a small, export-oriented economy has decreased exports and the domestic economy also continues to stagnate. Therefore, for continued growth of our economy through export growth, we need to analyze the validity of export support system such as export insurance and prepare ways to expand exports. This study is to investigate the effects of Export Insurance on the exports of SMEs as well as LEs. For this purpose, this study conducted Time Series Analysis using data such as export, export insurance acquisition, export price index, exchange rate, and coincident composite index(CCI). First, as a result of the Granger Causality Test, the exports of LEs has found to have a causal relationship with the CCI, and CCI is to have a causal relationship with the short-term export insurance record. Second, the results of VAR analysis show that the export insurance acquisition result and the export price index have a positive effect on the exports of LEs, while the short - term export insurance has a negative effect on the exports of LEs. Third, as a result of variance decomposition, the export of LEs has much more influenced for mid to long term by the short-term export insurance acquisition compared to SMEs. Fourth, short-term export insurance has a positive effect on exports of SMEs. In order to activate short-term export insurance against SMEs, it is necessary to expand support for SMEs by local governments. This study aims to suggest policy implications for establishing effective export insurance policy by analyzing the effects of export insurance on the export of SMEs as well as LEs. It is necessary to carry out a time series analysis on the export results according to the insurance acquisition results by industry to measure the export support effect of export insurance more precisely.
