This paper examines the impact of university social responsibility on brand image and student satisfaction. Social responsibility impact on consumer behavior has been studied extensively. But the same impact has not been rigorously tested to the same extend in the education sector. Firstly, we analyze the perception of university social responsibility (USR) and its components, including (1) the quality of teaching programs, facilities, and academic staff; (2) supporting learning activities; and (3) human resource policies. Secondly, we investigate the relationship between university social responsibility, brand image, and student satisfaction. The study examined these relationships through a proposed economic model based on answers from a survey of 298 students at the University of Food Industry Ho Chi Minh City. From the above survey data, the author proceeds to quantify variables and, based on Cronbach's Alpha reliability coefficient, EFA factor analysis, and linear regression, to measure the impact of each social responsibility factor on business of the university and student satisfaction. The results show that university social responsibility actually affects the university's brand image and student satisfaction. Our findings suggest that universities should develop an appropriate marketing strategy to reinforce brand image and student satisfaction through the university social responsibility model.

Commercial banks have a significant impact on the economy of Vietnam because they provide the majority of transactional capital. Therefore, the operational efficiency of commercial banks is a viral topic for the study of the Vietnamese banking system. The research aims to examine the efficiency and inefficiency of joint-stock commercial banks in Vietnam from 2016 to 2020 and then classify them into the efficient group and inefficient group. The study employs the time series data of 29 joint-stock commercial banks during the period 2016-2020. Based on the data collected from the annual audited financial statements of 29 Vietnamese joint-stock commercial banks, the authors select input and output variables for the standard DEA models and anti-efficient DEA models. This research uses two stages, first, by applying the standard DEA model, we investigate the efficient banks; second, by employing the anti-efficient DEA model, we find out the inefficient banks. The results reveal that the average efficiency score of 29 joint-stock commercial banks tends to increase in the period 2016-2018 and decrease gradually in the period 2019-2020. The findings of this study suggest that several small and medium-sized banks in the Vietnamese banking sector have both promising and risky performances and the efficiency of state-owned commercial banks has also improved significantly during the study period.

This paper examines the main factors affecting the bank performance under the Basel II implementation in Vietnam, a transitional economy in Asia. We pay special attention to the implementation duration of the Basel II convention and how it affects profitability. Thereby, we can evaluate the effectiveness of Basel II in the whole system according to the roadmap to 2020. We employ the panel data regression method to analyze a sample of 300 bank-year observations from 25 commercial banks during the 2008-2019 period. Our empirical findings show that the size of the bank, net interest margin, state ownership, and Basel II convention have positive effects on bank profitability. However, our empirical findings indicate that bank age and branch number negatively reduce bank performance. Finally, our results indicate that commercial banks earn extra profit from delaying the implementation of Basel II. However, commercial banks will encounter higher credit, and operational risks arising from delaying the implementation of Basel II standards. Therefore, our study contributes to the insights into the bank's management to enhance profitability, especially after implementing Basel II in a transitional economy. Finally, our study also provides policy implications for bank managers and banking supervisory to maintain the sustainable development of the banking system.

Purpose - We document the impact of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) in the US and China on the dynamic spillover effect of macroeconomics such as stock price, housing price in Korea. Research design, data, and methodology - We use the nine variables to analyze the effect which produces a result among the EPU indexes of the US and China on economic variables which is the consumer price index (CPI), housing purchase price composite index, housing lease price, the stock price index in banking industry, construction industry and distribution industry, and composite leading indicator from January 1995 to December 2016 with the Vector Error Correction Model. Result - The US EPU index has significantly a negative relation on the CPI, housing purchase price index, housing lease price index, the stock price index in banking industry, construction industry, and distribution industry in Korea. Conclusions - We find the dynamic effect of the EPU indexes in the US and China on the macroeconomics returns in Korea. This study has an empirical evidence that the economy market in Korea is influenced by the EPU index of the US rather than it of China. The higher EPU, the more risky the economy of in Korea.

스마트융합 환경속에서 스마트폰 등의 기기들을 이용한 전자결제서비스가 크게 늘어나게 될 전망이다. 과거 전통적인 전자상거래 방식에서 진일보된 모바일 전자결제 문화가 정착되도록 하는 노력이 필요하다. 비 금융기관들의 진출에 따른 금융기관과의 주도권 갈등 문제를 해결하기 위해 모바일 지급결제 인프라를 표준화하는 노력이 필요하며 NFC 기술 기반의 스마트폰을 통한 거래 증가에 대비한 국내외적 전략이 필요하다. 다양한 유형의 사업자들이 전자상거래 분야로 진출함에 따라 소비자 불만 해소 노력이 중요하며 개방형 운영체제로 전환되는 과정에서의 보안 문제 또한 중요 이슈가 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내외 현황을 조사하고 한국이 처하고 있는 문제점을 분석해내고 그에 대한 정책 대응 방안을 제시하였다. 정부의 전자상거래 정책 마련에 도움이 되기를 기대한다.

본고는 parametric approach인 확률적 회귀분석(SEA)을 이용하여 말레이시아 상업은행의 기술적 특성을 비용함수를 이용하여 측정하였다. 분석결과에 의하면 말레이시아의 은행재편은 경영규모의 확대에 의한 규모의 경제가 관찰되었으며 은행의 합병 및 통합에 의한 규모 확대는 경영효율성에 중요한 역할을 하였다. 또한 말레이시아 은행이 범위의 경제를 실현하기 위해서는 종래의 은행시스템을 개혁하여 상업은행이 투자은행의 업무 또는 보험, 증권업무를 제공할 수 있는 은행개혁이 필요하다. 본고에서는 은행개혁을 위한 대안을 제시한다. 먼저 말레이시아의 은행은 부(-)기술진보가 관찰되었다. 먼저 은행에 의한 적극적인 설비투자가 과잉 또는 비생산적인 부분에 포함될 가능성이 있으므로 향후 은행개혁을 진행하면서 투자를 확대하는 경우에는 화려한 점포 및 낭비적인 지출을 억제하는 것과 과잉투자에도 유의할 필요가 있다. 두 번째는 말레이시아는 전체적으로 은행이 비용의 효율성이 낮은 경향이 있기 때문에 금융개혁은 경영효율성 및 경영규모와 업무형태에 대한 개혁에 중점을 둬야한다.

The number of umbilical cord blood transplantation is increasing worldwide as it has expanded the ability of the transplantaion community to meet the growing needs of their patients. Clinical data over the last decade show promising results in transplantation using both related as well as unrelated cord bloods. Cord blood banks are essential for the clinical use for transplantation and are now established around the world with the major efforts to standardize banking in collection, processing and distribution of cord blood for providing the highest quality stem cells for the patients. In Korea, Medipost, Histostem and some regional cord blood banks were established some years ago and collected thousands of cord blood for public but it had some limitations and was not expanded as the cord blood transplantation was not covered by medical insurance. Recently with the change in the policy of medical insurance to cover the cord blood transplantation, several venture companies are showing great interests in cord blood banking and trying to establish private cord blood banks in Korea. This review article discusses the current status of cord blood transplantaion and also the clincial use of stem cells from cord blood.

배출권 이월 및 차입은 감축기술개발투자에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 배출권거래제하에서 이월 및 차입이 허용되면 감축비용과 배출권 가격에 따라 배출권거래제 참여기업들은 현재의 감축을 미래로 또는 미래의 감축을 현재로 선택할 수 있기 때문에 배출권 이월 및 차입은 감축기술개발에 대한 대체재적인 역할을 한다. 따라서 배출권 이월 및 차입과 같은 간접감축이행수단을 허용하는 경우에는 직접감축이행수단인 감축기술개발투자에 영향을 미친다. 불완전경쟁시장에서 이러한 간접감축조치가 감축기술개발투자에 미치는 영향은 완전경쟁시장하에서와 달라질 수 있다. 왜냐하면 과점시장의 쿠르노 경쟁하에서 감축기술개발투자가 최종소비재시장의 균형에 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문이다. 분석 결과, 배출권 이월 및 차입으로 인한 감축기술개발투자 유인 수준은 감축비용, 할인계수, 초기무상할당, 감축기술개발투자효과 등에 의존한다.

본 논문의 목적은 영국, 스페인의 연구결과를 바탕으로 바젤 II의 도입에 따라 한국에서도 경기순응성이 존재할 것인가에 대해 분석하는 것이다. 소매금융자료의 제약으로 한국의 경우 자기자본비율의 분모에 해당하는 위험가중자산과 경기순응성간의 상관관계, 그리고 자기자본비율과 경기순환간의 상관관계를 토대로 분석한 결과 경기순응성이 나타날 가능성이 높은 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 한국의 경우 이와 같은 거시적 변수의 추세만을 가지고 자기자본의 경기순응성을 판단하는 것은 한계가 있다. 앞으로 소매금융에 대한 분석자료가 더 많이 축적될 경우 영국이나 스페인의 경우와 같이 보다 더 체계적인 분석모형을 이용하여 판단해야 할 것이다. 마지막으로 정책적 시사점을 유도하기 위해 필요자기자본의 산출과정(Pillar I), 감독기관의 점검과정(Pillar II), 그리고 시장규율(Pillar III)에 대해 살펴보았다.

This paper offers a comprehensive view of international risk sharing and of related policy issues from the perspective of the European Union. The traditional analyses contemplate three risk-sharing channels: the capital markets channel (through cross border portfolio investments), international transfers and the credit markets channel (via savings). Comparative analyses reveal that, on average, about 80% of the shock remains unsmoothed in Europe while only about 18% of the shock is transmitted to consumers within the US. From aggregated figures, there is space for improving, particularly, the cross-border investments channel in Europe. In this sense, the completion of the Banking and Capital Markets Union are expected to boost risk sharing across European member states. We also review new additional issues usually not contemplated by the traditional literature as depreciation, migration and the role of sovereigns and two new additional channels recently considered in the literature: government consumption and the real exchange rate. Finally, we also examine recent analysis related to the geographic distribution of risk sharing.
