Purpose - This study empirically investigated whether national distances (Cultural, Administrative, Geographic and Economic distance) have different effects on industries in different ways. Design/methodology - The empirical model utilized industry level export trade data to examine the differentiated effects of each national distance. By using direct measurement and covering 75 countries, this paper analyzes the effect of distances in different industries. More specifically, this study classified the industries into a more-sensitive/less-sensitive scale. Findings - The empirical results showed the complicated impacts of national distances on trade. Trade in industries that are more sensitive to cultural and administrative distances was not decreased as greatly as trade in industries that are less sensitive to cultural and administrative distances. Also, industries that are more sensitive to geographic distance showed a stronger negative impact on trade than less sensitive industries. Lastly, economic distance decreased trade for industries that are more sensitive to economic distance, while economic distance did not significantly increase trade for industries that are less sensitive to economic distance. Originality/value - As the first study to empirically find out whether national distance has different effects on industries, this study updated the measurements of national distance.

Salicornia herbacea, a noted halophyte, has been widely researched for its diverse physiological activities. The continuous exploration of its compounds is essential. This study employed gas chromatography (GC) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) for qualitative analysis. This involved pretreatment including trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatization of the S. herbacea extract, facilitating its GC analysis. Five compounds, including various fatty acids and β-sitosterol, were identified by direct analysis of the methanol extract of S. herbacea without pretreatment by GC-MS. Conversely, the analysis of the TMS-derivatized extract revealed 28 distinct peaks. Quantitative analysis further indicated that the predominant compounds in the S. herbacea extract were sugars and sugar derivatives, notably glucose, fructose, and glucitol. The collective concentration of these sugars and its derivatives amounted to 116.45 mg/g, representing 11.6% of the dry weight of the raw S. herbacea. Following sugars and their derivatives, fatty acids constituted the next most abundant group of compounds. However, the presence of amino acids and organic acids was relatively low.

본 연구의 목적은 코로나19의 확산에 따른 한국의 무역 및 산업의 변화를 글로벌가치사슬 관점에서 분석하고 시사점을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위해 코로나19와 직접적으로 관련 있는 방역용품과 GVC 참여도가 높은 IT산업을 분석하였다. 방역용품은 코로나19의 확산에 따라 수출입 변동 폭이 컸다. 마스크의 경우 최종재는 수출입이 급격히 변화했지만 중간재의 변화는 상대적으로 크지 않았다. 한국의 IT산업은 GVC에서 전방참여도가 높아지고 후방참여도가 낮아지는 전반적인 변화 속에서 주요 무역대상국별로 차별화된 특성을 보였다. 아직까지 코로나19로 인한 변화가 직접적으로 나타나지는 않았지만, 중국, 베트남과의 생산 연계와 무역 의존도가 높은 상황에서 다변화 전략의 필요성이 높아졌다. 코로나19는 여전히 진행 중으로 포스트 코로나 시대의 GVC 변화에 대응하기 위한 기업의 전략과 정책적 노력이 필요하다.

The purpose of this paper is to study the impact of trade openness on foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into Vietnam, an emerging country with relatively high trade openness in recent years. The study used the vector autoregression (VAR) model to examine the impact of trade openness on FDI in Vietnam, in the period from 2005 to 2019. The research data are time-series data, with quarterly frequency, from 2005:Q4 to 2019:Q3. The FDI data were collected by International Financial Statistics. The data of trade openness were calculated based on Vietnam's export, import, and GDP data collected by the General Statistics Office of Vietnam. The estimated result shows that the trade openness has a positive effect on FDI. The current FDI is heavily influenced by FDI in the past with an average explanation of 74%. The main findings indicate that trade openness has a positive effect on FDI inflows into Vietnam. The findings also show that FDI in Vietnam is significantly affected by the shocks of the FDI itself in the past. The findings of the study suggest the Vietnamese Government improves the quality of trade openness and FDI, continues and maintains economic relations with other countries to increase trade openness.

FTA상의 특혜관세 혜택을 누리기 위해서는 무엇보다도 수출입기업 스스로가 해당 FTA협정상의 원산지 규정 등에 대한 내용을 정확히 이해하고 올바로 활용할 수 있는 능력을 배양하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 FTA는 본질적으로 기업들에게 혜택을 주는 제도이지만 그에 따른 의무와 엄격한 충족을 전제로 하는 것이기 때문에 협정상 선결요건의 정확한 이해와 적용도 중요하다. 본 연구는 한 EU FTA 원산지의정서 제13조에 규정되어 있는 직접운송 요건을 충족하는지의 여부와 관련하여, 최근 관세청에 접수되어 결정이 내려진 심사청구사례를 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 우선 한 EU FTA하에서 원산지규정과 협정관세적용을 위한 직접운송 요건의 적용 법리를 분석을 토대로, 본 사례의 사실관계와 대상결정 및 본건 관련법령과 결정내용을 상세하게 분석한 후, 본 사례가 수출입기업들에게 주는 시사점과 실무상의 대응책 및 제도적 보완방안을 구체적으로 제시하고자 한다. 한편 본 연구는 국내외 학술문헌을 분석도구로 활용하는 문헌분석적 연구방법과 한 EU FTA 협정문의 주요내용을 법리적으로 분석하는 법리적 연구방법을 주로 채택하였다. 이외에 문헌연구의 한계를 극복하고 객관성을 향상시키기 위하여 심사청구되어 관세청이 결정한 최근의 사례를 분석하여 관련분야에 인용하는 사례분석적 연구방법도 병행하였다.

팩토링(factoring)의 역사는 중세시대까지 거슬러 올라갈 수 있지만 현대적 팩토링은 식민지시절 미국에서 시작되어 1960년대 영국으로 전파되면서 오늘날 유럽에서 가장 발전된 모습을 보이고 있다. 영국의 팩토링은 격지거래의 불확실성과 불편함을 해소하고자 판매지에서 상업대리인(mercantile agent)의 역할을 수행하기 위해 시작되어 점차 금융기능에 초점을 맞춘 오늘날의 팩토링 구조로 발전하였다. 미국에서의 팩토링 또한 상업대리인 형태로 출발하였으며 이후 팩터들의 활동이 수탁판매와 지급보증 뿐 아니라 선급금융 서비스로 확대되는 과정을 거쳐 왔다. 영미의 팩토링산업은 오늘날 전문팩터와 은행팩터, 두 유형의 기관들에 의해 운영되고 있고 특히 중소기업금융에 특화되어 있다. 이는 상대적으로 열악한 재무구조와 채무관리능력을 지닌 중소기업들에 대해 민간 최종대부자의 역할을 팩터가 수행함을 의미하는 한편 팩터에게는 충분한 신용조사능력이 요구됨을 의미한다. 우리나라 수출자의 수출 결제조건이 지속적으로 불리해져 결제리스크 관리와 무역금융의 보완 수단이 필요한 상황에서 팩토링의 활성화는 시급하며 중요하다. 우리나라 중소 수출기업들이 수출팩토링을 적극 활용할 수 있도록 시중은행은 신용조사역량을 확보해야 하는 한편 정부는 팩토링이 활성화될 수 있도록 정책적 노력을 기울여야 할 것이다.

This research is about global investment for managing the important position, what Korea is doing in World's main market. Considering there are some differences between developed countries' model and developing countries' model in doing direct overseas investment, they target to get political agreement and develop the new invest plan and strategy by understanding changes of Korean manufacturing companies in direct overseas investment between 2000 and 2007 and analyzing the change of yearly investment motivation factors and determining factors for investment. The result from this result let us know that company should develop their own idea for their competitive advantage by doing direct overseas investment with the existing theory which convinces the need of competitive advantage for investing overseas. I set actual model and analyze results from it with the considering that it is so important to get knowledge and information for globalizing companies to invest overseas and companies, which want to be world leading ones for their field through innovation and changes, need to have more active strategy. And, the overseas investment, which was already done in other countries, 1. Review its realities and tendency in terms of investing countries, investing industries, and its scale. 2. Set up an actual model, based on strategic combination of investing location select and determination of Korean manufacturing companies and yearly investing factor-effect analysis. 3. Analyze how the situational factors have influenced and what factors would be considered for direct overseas investment. From the analyzing result, even though it is fairly true that raising wage and getting resources, avoiding customs, and developing alternating industries for export had influenced at the beginning, overseas investing companies' policy will be influenced by the results from studying marketing-pursuit type, which emphasizes to manage trade income and outgo, keeping the balance in the black, ensuring raw materials, local producing and manufacturing by using low-wage people for local sale, and situation for changing investing tendency as service industry.

The main purpose of this research is to analyze the changes in investment motivation by year through time series and cross-sectional analysis of the factors and investment decisions of Korean manufacturing companies. According to the investment pattern for Asean from the 1980s to the 19th, the first expansion period was 82 to 86, the average increase in overseas investment for securing foreign raw materials due to the second oil shock, and the second expansion period was a gradual increase in exports to the U.S. in 1987 to 1996. During the first stagnation period, direct investment in Asean stagnated in the aftermath of the 1998-05 Asian crisis, and in the third expansion period, part of the production facilities invested in China were relocated to Asean, increasing Asean's investment to become Korea's largest manufacturing investment in 17. Korea's proportion of investment in Asean surpassed that of mass investment since 10 years ago, and the proportion of investment in manufacturing sector has been transferred from China to Asean, and after 17 years, it has served as an overseas production base connecting China. As such, The main purpose of the research will be to extract the determinant factors and key factors for overseas direct investment and investment patterns in conjunction with global manufacturing companies' production base relocation and investment trends through empirical analysis. This research paper gave basic reference to the motivation and determinant of investment 16 years ago, and analyzed the changes in investment motivation by year and content through empirical analysis, contributing some reasonable purpose to the decision of companies and policy makers interested in overseas direct investment.

Purpose - As the market economy deepens, the issue of social equity caused by income distribution becomes more and more significant. Therefore, this paper attempts to exploit the determinants of income distribution in terms of macroeconomics. Research design, data, and methodology - The data set from 1990 to 2017 will be used to conduct an empirical analysis under a menu of econometric approaches such as vector autoregressive model and impulse response function. The income distribution and other macroeconomic variables such as foreign direct investment and employment will be used to conduct an empirical analysis to explore the determinants of income distribution in terms of macroeconomics. Results - The findings indicate that the income distribution is related with macroeconomics. More specifically, the export, import, GDP and foreign direct investment play a role in deteriorating the income distribution. Conversely, the industrialization, inflation and employment can improve the income distribution. Unfortunately, the inflation and employment do not get through under 5% significant test. Conclusions - Due to that a good income distribution can be beneficial for both a country and an individual, this paper provides a new scope for China's government to improve its income distribution in terms of macroeconomics.

농산물 수출과 관련된 분석은 자료의 부족 때문에 피상적인 분석 이상 나아가기가 쉽지 않았다. 분석을 하더라도 간접적인 자료만을 활용한 분석이어서 해석상의 한계가 많았다. 이 연구는 수출업체의 실제 수출실적 자료를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 농가의 평균수취율은 72.3%로 나타났지만 거리에 따른 운송비 때문에 지역에 따라 차이가 났다. 수출농가의 소득률은 전반적으로 국내에 출하하는 농가에 비해 높게 나타났으며 수출비중이 높을수록 소득률은 상승하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 수출단가와 비용을 분석한 결과, 정부와 지자체의 보조금이 없을 경우 수출업체의 채산성은 크게 악화되는 것으로 나타났다.
