  • Few prior studies investigated the correlation between corporate ownership structure and environmental information disclosure. Using environmental index disclosure in GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) reports of the Korean companies, the study examines the effects of ownership structure on the magnitude of environmental information disclosure. A total of 220 firm-years during 2013-2016 period are analyzed. The empirical results of the study indicate that the institutional and foreign investors' ownership have positive correlations with environmental information disclosure, while the executives' within board of directors has a negative correlation. The ownership by largest shareholders including those with special interests shows no significant relationship with the environmental information disclosure.

  • The strategic importance of innovation ecosystems has received increased attention from both the academic and policy perspectives. However, there is only limited empirical evidence on the importance of these ecosystems from the perspective of younger firms. This study focuses on the role of ecosystems for young innovative companies (YICs) and is based on a unique set of phone survey data from Finland and South Korea. The results are threefold: (1) Finnish YICs participate more actively in ecosystems than Korean YICs; (2) on average, Korean YICs report to have experienced lower ecosystem impact compared to Finnish YICs; (3) in both countries, key organizations of the ecosystems are represented on the board of directors in about one-third of the sample firms.

  • 우리나라는 1997년 IMF 경제위기 이후 기업의 지배구조와 관련한 상법과 증권거래법 등이 수차례에 걸쳐 개정을 통한 정비가 되었다. 기업지배구조에 대한 문제는 우리나라 경우에만 한정되는 것이 아니라 미국을 비롯한 유럽 등 많은 선진국에서 중요한 문제점으로 대두되고 있는 것이 사실이다. 특히 우리나라에서 기업지배구조와 관련하여 많은 문제가 발생되고 있는 것은 지배주주와 경영진의 기업경영에 대한 감독 등이 제대로 이루어지지 않았을 뿐만 아니라 지배주주와 기업 경영진들에게 그에 책임을 제대로 묻지 않았기 때문이다. 그리고 아직도 우리나라 대부분의 기업들에 있어서 오너 경영자의 소유주식 비중이 높은 관계로 의사결정권을 독선적으로 행사하는 등 사실상 경영의 건전성을 확보할 수 없었던 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이사회가 본연의 기능을 회복하고 바람직한 지배구조를 개선하는데 있어서 걸림돌이 되는 부분을 검토하고 그에 대한 효율적인 개선안을 제시하고자 함이 연구의 목적이다.

  • Fisheries cooperative requires dual characteristics in performing its original function. Economic characteristic as an business enterprise and democratic characteristic as cooperative entity need to complete its objectives and survive in the complex rapidly-changing environment. After IMF crisis, fisheries cooperative received enormous government's financial support and credit-business department is perfectly under government's control. Regional fisheries cooperative also faces business failure, therefore pure cooperative movement can't save the fisheries cooperative. Economic characteristic as an business enterprise is more emphasized than democratic characteristic as cooperative entity in recent years. The theory of corporate ownership and governance can be applied to explain the ownership and governance of fisheries cooperative because fisheries cooperative is now similar to an business enterprise. During the IMF crisis the board, the auditors and the minority shareholders in business enterprise were revealed to be powerless against the mighty influence of controlling shareholders. Unconstrained discretion exercised by those controlling shareholders not only led to the firms'insolvency, but also brought down the country's financial system. During the past few years, Korea has experienced many institutional changes regarding its corporate governance structure. The introduction of outside directors, the strengthening of minority shareholders' rights, and enhanced accounting transparency are achieved to improve the efficiency of economic system. Investors, including institutional and individual, also seem to be more aware of governance issues now. Credit-business department of fisheries cooperative is recommended to introduce the institutions same as the case of the corporate governance structure. Fisheries cooperative except economic and credit-business department requires other prescriptions because it is emphasized as democratic cooperative entity. But we should be careful to interpret the ownership and governance structure because they are products of nations, eras and organizations.

  • 서울중앙지방법원 제6 파산부는 2017년 2월 2일 한진해운(주)에 대하여 기업회생절차(법정관리) 폐지를 결정했다. 이로써 2017년 2월 17일 세계 7위 해운사는 결국 청산절차에 돌입했다. 한진해운(주)은 1977년 5월에 설립되어 1992년에는 매출 1조원을 돌파했으며, 2012년에는 매출 10조원을 달성했다. 그러나 2013년 3년 연속 적자로 대한항공(주)이 긴급자금지원을 단행했으며, 2016년 9월 1일 법원이 법정관리개시를 결정했고, 2017년 2월 2일 법정관리 폐지를 결정했다. 한진그룹의 조양호 회장은 2016. 9. 13. 사재 400억원을 출연했다. 그런데 법정관리에 들어간 뒤 화물을 하역할 수 없어 바다에 떠돌고 있던 한진해운 선박 67척이 하역을 하려면 추가로 1,000억원이 더 필요한 상황이었다. 이에 한진해운의 대주주인 대한항공이 하역비용 600억원을 지원하는 문제가 불거졌다. 대한 항공은 총 5차례의 이사회를 열어 결국 지원여부를 결정하였다. 이와 같이 5차례나 이사회를 열게 된 것은 대한항공이 확실한 담보 없이 계열회사를 지원하는 것은 배임이 되므로 대한항공 이사진이 배임죄의 형사처벌을 받을 수 있기 때문이었다. 한국의 물류기업들도 여러 개의 자회사를 가지면서 기업그룹을 구성하는 사례가 많다. 기업 그룹 내의 부실 회사를 다른 회사가 담보 없이 대출한 경우 그 회수가 어려울 수 있고, 그 경우 지원주체인 회사의 이사가 민사상의 손해배상책임과 형사상의 배임죄의 책임을 길 가능성이 크다. 위 한진해운 사건에서도 대한항공의 이사들이 부실에 빠진 한진해운에 대하여 아무런 담보 없이 거액을 대출하였던 것인데, 자칫 대한항공의 이사들이 배임죄의 죄책(罪責)을 뒤집어 쓸 수 있었던 것이다. 이 논문에서는 부실 계열회사를 지원한 모회사의 책임 및 기업그룹 개념과 그룹 이익의 인정여부에 관하여 좀 더 자세히 살펴, 물류기업그룹의 그룹이익 및 그룹 내의 회사 간의 지원의 경우 부담해야 할 이사의 민 형사 책임에 관하여 논의하였다. 여기서 논의한 것은 물류기업이라 해서 다르지 않다. 부실에 빠진 한진해운을 그 모회사인 대한항공이 지원할 수는 있다. 그러나 아무런 담보 없이 지원한 경우에는 적어도 한국 형법에 따르면 그와 같은 결정을 한 모회사의 이사들이 민 형사 책임을 질 수 밖에 없다. 한가지 방법은 절차적 공정성과 내용적 공정성을 확보하는 것이다. 절차적 공정성은 이사회에서 모든 정보를 공개하고 이사회가 지원행위를 승인하는 것이다. 내용적 공정성은 기업총수의 사익편취의 가능성이 없도록 공정한 거래를 하는 것이다. 대한한공의 한진그룹 지원의 경우에는 이사회를 5회에 걸쳐 개최하고 대출금 회수의 위험성에 관하여 충분히 검토하고 대책을 마련한 후 지원을 결의하였으므로 문제가 없다고 본다. 내용적으로도 지배주주나 대주주의 사익편취의 가능성이 거의 없었다. 이미 부실에 빠진 회사(한진해운)에 계속적 지원으로 지배주주조차도 매우 부담스러운 존재였기 때문이다. 필자의 견해로는 기업그룹 자체의 이익(interest of the group)이라는 개념을 인정하여야 한다고 본다. 즉, 모자회사 및 계열회사 간의 지배와 지휘와 같은 영향력 행사는 그룹의 존속과 발전에 유용하며 정당하다는 것을 인정하여야 한다. 아울러 기업그룹과 계열사, 각 회사의 이사와 경영진은 기업집단의 이해관계를 자기가 소속한 각 회사의 이해관계에 우선하여 고려해야 할 의무가 있다는 것을 인정하여야 한다. 따라서 대한항공이 이사들이 경영판단상 한진해운에 대하여 담보 없이 대출을 했다고 하더라도 이를 범죄시하거나 그 이사들에게 민사적 손해배상책임을 물어서는 아니 된다고 본다.

  • This study identifies the determinants of potential failure of Islamic Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending in Indonesia, and the mediating effect of Islamic ethics on reducing the potential for failure of Islamic P2P lending. This study uses primary data retrieved through questionnaires from the perspective of 152 stakeholders in Islamic P2P lending. Using a structural equation model (SEM), the study found that indebtedness, financing size, and governance have positive and significant relationships with the potential failure of Islamic P2P lending. This study provides evidence that the customer's internal conditions and the governance structure applied can increase the potential failure of Islamic P2P lending. Further, Islamic ethics is evidently able to partially reduce the potential failure of Islamic P2P lending by lessening risk management exposure, but it fails to address failure through Ponzi scheme exposure. As an implication, this study suggest that Islamic P2P lending must implement Islamic ethics more comprehensively by optimizing the advisory and supervisory role of the shariah board within their overall boards of directors also in their operational activities. Finally, it also adds to the existing knowledge on financial technology literature, particularly on the determinants of potential failure of financial technology from the perspective of stakeholders.

  • Earnings management behavior is the use of accounting procedures, through accounting policies, to intentionally purposeful control in the provision of information to users. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between ownership structure factors and earnings management behavior of 30 Vietnamese commercial banks. The paper uses the ordinary least square method to examine this relationship and employs time series data of 15 years from 2005 to 2019. The study also uses agency theory an asymmetric information theory. The authors examined six independent variables related to the ownership structure and these variables are typical of Vietnamese commercial banks. The results of the study show that the foreign ownership ratio is an opposite effect, while the ownership concentration variable has a positive effect on earnings management behavior of Vietnamese commercial banks. Based on that, the article proposes a number of policy suggestions for the State bank of Vietnam and Board of directors of commercial banks as well as investors to identify and to limit the earnings management behaviors of Vietnamese commercial banks. This contributes to ensuring information transparency as well as improving the quality of accounting information of Vietnamese commercial banks in the coming years.

  • The paper investigates the effect of the factors on the disclosure of sustainable development information of enterprises. The research sample includes 120 manufacturing companies listed on Vietnam stock market in 2019. This research uses ordinary least squares (OLS) to address econometric issues and to improve the accuracy of the regression coefficients. The empirical results show that five variables have a statistically significant positive effect on disclosure of sustainable development information of manufacturing companies, including firm size (SIZE), independence of board of directors (BOD), foreign ownership (FRO), return on equity (ROE), and financial leverage (LEV). The results indicate that state ownership (STO) has a statistically significant negative effect on disclosure of sustainable development information of manufacturing companies listed on Vietnam stock market. Besides, the research results also show there is a large difference in the disclosure of sustainable development information between listed companies in Vietnam, those of other emerging economies in the region, and the companies in developed markets. Therefore, this paper provides a new insight to managers and related parties on how to improve the firm's sustainability disclosure to bring benefit for the firm itself and the stakeholders by reasonable decisions about the factors that affect disclosure of sustainable development information.
