최근의 고금리논쟁과 자본시장개방에 대응한 정책방안을 둘러싼 많은 논의의 핵심은 우리나라의 제반 거시경제여건을 반영하는 장기적 의미에서의 균형금리수준이 어느 정도인가에 대한 것이다. 장기적인 관점에서 볼 때 한 나라의 금리수준은 그 나라의 거시경제여건을 반영하는 균형금리의 추세를 반영하기 마련이며, 이러한 균형금리수준을 왜곡하는 정책 및 규제는 경제의 불안정성을 야기할 뿐, 민간부문의 규제회피노력 등으로 결국은 무력화될 소지가 높기 때문이다. 본 연구의 목적은 우리나라 금리변동의 요인 및 특성에 대해 세밀히 살펴보고, 국내외 실질금리격차의 실증분석을 통하여 그 구조적 원인을 파악하여 보며, OECD 국제비교분석을 통하여 현재 우리나라의 균형금리수준을 가늠하여 봄으로써, 향후 본격적인 자본시장개방에 대응한 통화금융정책의 모색에 하나의 지표를 제시하여 보려는데 있다. 본고의 연구분석결과에 의하면 우리나라의 명목금리는 실질경제성장률 외에도 기대인플레이션 및 경상수지적자와 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 해외금리 및 예상환율절하율도 점차 주요한 금리의 설명변수로서 나타나고 있다. 엄밀한 의미에서의 피셔효과는 기각되나 기대인플레이션이 명목 및 실질금리의 가장 주요한 변동요인으로 나타나 물가안정을 통한 인플레이션 기대심리의 불식이 향후 금리안정의 관건으로 분석되었다. 특히 통화공급의 유동성효과는 단기적으로만 나타나며 장기적으로는 오히려 금리상승을 유발하는 것으로 나타나 금리안정을 위해서는 안정적인 통화관리가 중요한 것으로 분석되었다. OECD 국제비교분석을 통하여 추정해 본 결과 우리나라의 1997년 균형금리수준은 회사채수익률 기준 약 11%대로 나타나 소폭의 금리하락 가능성이 있으나 지속적인 경상수지의 불균형 등 금리하락여건은 여의치 않은 것으로 보인다. 이미 자본시장개방이 진전된 OECD 국가들의 실증분석에서도 나타나듯이 금리의 하향안정화는 거시경제의 안정과 금융의 효율성 제고가 동시에 이루어져야만 가능한 것이다. 그러므로 향후 금리정책은 금리의 가격기능을 조속히 회복시켜 자원배분의 효율성을 극대화할 수 있는 시장메커니즘을 활성화하는 방향으로 추진되어야 할 것이다.

As W-CDMA R5(HSDPA) service became recently commercialized in Korea, there is increasing demand for new pricing methodology for the 3G mobile interconnection at the earliest possible time. However, it is hard to find any case of systematic study on it. In this paper, a synthetic investigation into the three aspects of new mobile telecommunication service - technology, market, and regulation - is conducted to verify the validity of new interconnection pricing methodology. As the findings of this research indicate, given the several technological limits of 3G, speed of mobile telecommunication industry evolution, the problem of verifying ex-ante regulations' validity, and the cases of some foreign countries, it is suggested that immediate revision of interconnection policy is not sensible and that the revision is more desirable to be postponed until the maturity of the 3G market or the adoption of All-IP network.

Membranes are used in most processes of biopharmaceutical production. It is used for pretreatment of other processes, separation of impurities in the process, virus removal, control of products concentration and buffer solution exchange. Virus filters play an important role in ensuring product efficacy and stability because viral contamination of biopharmaceuticals for humans is a sensitive issue that is directly related to serious clinical outcomes. Virus filters typically have complex multilayer structures made of various polymers such as surface-modified PVDF, PES, CRC. Depending on the manufacturer, filters have different pore structures and shapes, such as symmetric or asymmetric, and is used in the form of pleated membrane, flat sheets or hollow fibers. Virus filters are exclusively supplied by few foreign companies such as Asahi Kasei, Millipore, Pall and Sartorius. Replacing virus filters can be time consuming and expensive, including approval from regulatory agencies through validation. As localization has become important due to Japan's recent export regulations, it is necessary to increase the degree of technical independence.

Since the Korean privacy policy was legalized in 2011, the related academical researches have been lasted in various fields. Upcoming so-called 3 data laws would be implemented, it is meaningful to review privacy policy studies for exploring future research direction. For this purpose, the total of 146 journals from 2011 to 2019 were reviewed by the content analysis following as research subjects, methodologies and constructions of studies. As results, the numbers of the researches have been conducted on protection policies themselves for improvement, comparing with other countries' policies and also digital finance information protection were deeply discussed. Some of technology based protection applications were experimented and suggested. The major research characteristics was mainly focused on case analysis and criminal laws and policies were developed as protection contingencies. However, most research objects were focused on the protection regulations, not deregulation, therefore, researchers in future study need to explore more digital industry-centric tasks which are practically applied in safer ways. Further, social agreement in using private information will be an essential to prevent indiscriminate use.

Sweden invited immigrant workers, mainly from Nordic countries and West European countries until the 1960s. But since the 1970s refugees and their family members have become the largest group of immigrants. As the composition of immigrants has changed significantly, and the labor market conditions have been aggravated, immigrants have had much difficulty in finding jobs. This has aroused policy debates concerning the reason why the immigrants are not well integrated into the labor market and how to solve the problem. While there is a broad consensus on micro reform policy alternatives, there are significant opinion gaps concerning major issues such as labor market flexibilization and immigration restrictions. It would seems that the poor results of immigrants' labor market integration may increase the pressure for labor market flexibilization and also bring about significant changes to the Swedish welfare state model designed on the premise of full employment.

Although the domestic industrial accidents have been decreased gradually, deaths in the construction sites have been occupied 49.9 percent of the total industry and deaths from fall accident have been accounted for 59.7 percent of the construction industry. In order to prevent fall accident, various safety activities and policy have been carried out. However, the impact on the domestic construction industry was inadequate. On the other hand, in advanced countries, such as the United States, Japan, EU, and Singapore Industrial accidents have been lower than domestic industry due to safety activities, the regulations and policies appropriate for each country's situation. In this study, we compare the major points of the Industrial Safety and Health Act in developed countries with those in South Korea to reduce the number of falls, and propose a revision. As a result of conducting research, three revisions have been proposed as 1) Enhance standards for fall height, 2) Improvement of upper safety rail height on guardrail, 3) Revision and research on Horizontal Sarety bar attachment system. This study will be utilized as a basic study for the analysis of cases in advanced countries.

This study analyzes domestic and overseas companies' Scope 3 verification, level of management, source and industry characteristics based on the responses of domestic excellent companies and rated 90 points or more global excellent companies which are included in CDP Korea 200 and CDP Global 500. The result of analysis conveys that global excellent companies' Scope 3 management source achieved the average of 2.7 which is one more than domestic excellent companies', according to the Scope 3 guideline of World Resource Institute and World Business Council of Sustainable Development. For domestic companies are tend to focus on business travel, employee commuting, etc. but didn't manage capital goods, leased assets and investments. Global companies' Scope 3 source is similar to domestic companies but shows more actively managing on investment and use of sold products. It seems that domestic companies should actively develop Scope 3 source especially for the capital related items and respond to the future regulations on inter-enterprise management through the Scope 3.

The purpose of this research was to provide the information of mandatory regulation for Korean sports facilities and the preliminary data for building sport safety management manual through sports facilities abroad and system status. Futhermore, based on the information of sports facilities safety management, this research performed the benchmarking of each country sports facilities safety management system. As a result, in the U.S, Department of Homeland Security(DHS) leads effort to achieve a safe, secure, and resilient homeland. In Germany, law & regulations, sports facilities safety guideline and expert extension have been reviewed. Germany is more realistic and practical than other countries. In Australia, Major Hazard Facilities(MHF) is responsible for eliminating the risk of a major incident. Emergency Management System(EMS) should spontaneously respond when the alarm is raised as early detection and intervention are vital to ensuring that a small incident does not escalate to become a major disaster.

This study examines the regulatory issues and introduction problems of TV-betting data broadcasts in Korea by in-depth interview with a panel group. TV-betting data broadcast services of card games and horse racing games are widely in use in Europe and other parts of the world. In order to carry out the study, a demo program of TV-betting data broadcast in the OCAP(OpenCableTM Application Platform Specification) system environment, which is the data broadcasting standard for digital cable broadcasts in Korea was exposed to the panel group and then they were interviewed after watching and using the program. The results could be summarized as below. First of all, while TV-betting data broadcasts have many elements of entertainment, the respondents thought that it would be difficult to introduce TV-betting in data broadcasts as in overseas countries largely due to social factors. In addition, in order to introduce TV-betting data broadcasts, they suggested that excessive speculativeness must be suppressed through a series of regulatory system devices, such as by guaranteeing credibility of the media based on safe security systems for transactions, scheduling programs with effective time constraints to prevent the games from running too frequently, limiting the betting values, and by prohibiting access to games through set-top boxes of other data broadcast subscribers. The general consensus was that TV-betting could be considered for gradual introduction within the governmental laws and regulations that would minimize its ill effects. Therefore, the government should formulate long-term regulations and policies for data broadcasts. Once the groundwork is laid for safe introduction of TV-betting on data broadcasts within the boundary of laws and regulations, interactive TV games are expected to be introduced in Korea not only for added functionality of entertainment but also for far-ranging development of data broadcast and new media industries.
