Purpose - The principle aim of this study is to further investigate the relationship between market diversity and export performance. We examine the benefits and costs of geographic market diversity regarding the number of countries exported to by firms on their export performance. Based on the financial risk reduction model and the entry costs model, we propose a way to incorporate the costs and benefits aspects of market diversity. Design/methodology - To empirically investigate our research question, the curvilinear relationship between market diversity and export performance, we built a secondary panel data set between 2015 and 2019, containing 17,863 observations of Korean exporting companies. A generalized least squares panel estimator with fixed effects was employed to test the hypothesis, and the statistical package, Stata 14, was used. Findings - Our main findings are as follows: As market diversity increases, export performance increases because exporters can diversify and reduce financial risks in export markets. However, the relationship between the two does not grow. As it peaks, the entry costs increase due to the high market diversity, thereby outweighing the benefits, leading, eventually to decrease in the export performance. Consequently, there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between market diversity and export performance. Originality/value - In the export and trade literature, the impact of market diversity on export performance has not been addressed yet, despite the importance of this subject. Many scholars have assumed a positive linear relationship between the two, considering only the decrease in market risks as the number of overseas markets increases, without examining the increase in the entry and management costs. Therefore, our study contributes by providing a new perspective for analyzing the characteristics and outcomes of market diversity.

국제무역의 대금결제방식이 기존에는 신용장방식, 추심방식 등이 많이 이용되었지만 최근에는 오픈어카운트 방식으로 그 이용이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 오픈어카운트 방식의 증가추세에 금융권이 대응하고, 정보화 시대에 발맞추고자 새로이 등장한 BPO 제도는 신용장의 지급보장은 물론 전자거래의 편리성을 결제제도에 유용하게 접목시켰다고 할 수 있다. 한편 공급망금융은 기업이 물품을 생산 및 공급하는 과정에서 필요한 운전자금을 보다 신속하게 제공하기 위하여 사용하는 금융으로 특히 자본여력이 충분하지 않은 중소수출기업이 이용함으로써 효율성을 보다 극대화할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 중소수출기업이 국제무역거래에서 필요한 자금운용을 적절하게 이용하고, 다국적 기업과 경쟁하여 도태되지 않기 위하여 BPO 제도 및 공급망금융의 효율적 이용을 도모하고자 연구를 진행하였다.

According to globalization and localization of world economics international trade payment method was also changed. A traditional payment was Letter of Credit basis, however it is being increased to various methods such as remittance, documentary collection(D/P, D/A) and open account. In order to acquire a secure export payment, exporters prefer to L/C basis which is guaranteed by a reliable bank. However, the L/C should bear a security so that importers would rather documentary collection than L/C. The reasons for the preference of collection payment rather than L/C are a low commission cost, the conversion of buyer's market from seller's market due to severe competition in the world market, transaction increase between main office and branches and a right to control the goods until executing the payment by exporters. Besides of them, collection payment can handle safer and faster than open account basis. However, the collection payment has a risk which it isn't guaranteed by bank for the payment so that I would suggest countermeasures to minimize the payment risk utilizing the collection basis as follows; using export credit insurance system, a large domestic credit report provider such as D&B for absolutely fresh and new information, a collection proxy service for overseas deferred credit and suggestion specifying to order B/L not straight one on consignee in order to transfer the right of ownership with endorsement without problem.

This research aims to review every important academic research on risk management in FTA and to suggest a future area for further research. This research area seems to focus on conceptual study or fact finding rather than on theory development or empirical research on causal relationship or theory testing. The National Assembly Digital Library analyzed the results of 3,576 researches on thesis and journals fromthe results of the FTA. Research on FTA is analyzed in four major themes. First, there have been previous studies on business performance such as FTA export performance and economic effect. Second, analyzed the effects of FTA in product and service. The products are classified into agricultural, marine products, manufacturing, textiles and clothing, medicinal pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and others. Services are classified into educational and cultural contents, service industry and financial industry. Third, research on the risk management of FTA Origin is broadly classified into the use of country of origin and the verification of origin, and the use of origin includes the study of rules of origin and systems of origin and management. Origin verification was divided into origin verification and origin risk management. Fourth, study on the conclusion area of the FTA, studies were conducted on areas such as Korea-US FTA, Korea-China FTA, Korea-EU FTA, Korea-Japan FTA, Korea-Chile FTA, and Korea-ASEAN FTA. Search results through the FTA, focused on analyzing the FTA area and concept research by research purpose. In addition, research methods are mainly focused on documentary survey, and research areas are concentrated on specific countries such as China and USA. This implies a necessity for a future development in that research area. Other areas for future research may include case research on actual failures in FTA, proactive risk management strategy, and integrated risk management for export companies. Risk management in FTA may help investment expansion, and that is why research on the issue matters.

본 연구는 글로벌금융위기 이후에 환율변동과 수출가격과의 관련성을 살펴보았다. 이를 위하여 우리나라 수출기업의 가격차별화 가격결정 행태뿐만 아니라 우리나라 수출산업의 특성상 가공무역구조로 인식하고 수출가격 결정모형을 설정하였다. 이러한 수출가격 결정모형에 근거하여 된 2008년 1월 이후 2011년 10월까지의 기간을 대상으로 음식료품, 목재나무제품, 펄프종이제품, 화학제품을 제외한 제조업을 대상으로 환율변동의 수출가격에의 전가율을 추정하였다. 연구결과 원화환율은 수출가격에 불완전 하게 전가되는 것으로 추정됨을 확인하였다. 원화환율의 1% 상승(하락)은 우리나라 제조업 수출가격을 장단기적으로 0.44 %와 0.33%상승(하락)시키는 것으로 추정되었다. 또한 우리나라 수출가격은 원화환율 뿐만 아니라 경쟁국의 수출가격, 미국경기통행지수, 단위노동비용 및 원자재 수입가격을 대변하는 생산자물가지수, 경쟁국의 환율에 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 산업별 환율전가의 차이는 시장 점유율, 제품차별화, 자본집약도 등과 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 분석되었는데 대체로 해외시장 점유율이 높거나 혹은 제품차별화 정도가 크거나 혹은 노동비율이 높은 자본집약산업에서 환율전가도가 높게 나타났다.

This study aimed to identify risk factors for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Korea, a rapidly changing country. Data of 5,132 adults aged 20-85 were used from the 2001 Korean Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Multiple logistic regression was carried out to identify risk factors for T2D. Three models were specified: (i) socioeconomic and demographic factors (model 1: age, gender, education, poverty income ratio, employment), (ii) behavioral risk factors and covariates (model 2: obesity, physical activity, smoking, alcohol drinking, dietary quality, family history of T2D, co-morbidity) and (iii) socioeconomic, demographic, and behavioral factors (model 3). The prevalence of T2D was 7.4%. Less education (OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.08-1.84), age (OR 2.19, 95% CI 1.56-3.08 in 40-59 yrs, OR 4.05, 95% CI 2.76-5.95 in 60 yrs + comparing to 20-39 yrs) and abdominal obesity (OR 2.24, 95% CI 1.79-2.82) were risk factors for T2D even after controlling for other factors simultaneously. There was a significant association of T2D with ever smoking (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.06-1.67). The relationship of age with T2D was modified by gender in model 1 and the relationship of smoking with T2D was modified by obesity in model 2. Less educated, older, obese or ever smokers were more likely to have T2D. Gender mediated the relationship of age, and obesity mediated the relationship of smoking, with T2D. Intervention programs for T2D in Korea should take the interactions among risk factors into account.

본 연구의 목적은 캄보디아와 베트남의 국가위험도와 영향요인들을 비교 분석하는 것이다. OECD와 한국수출입은행 모두 베트남보다는 캄보디아의 국가위험도를 더 높게 평가하고 있다. 국가위험도 분류에 따른 각각의 평가요소들에 대해 모수검정을 실시한 결과, 정치 사회적 위험 지표인 부패지수, 경제적 위험 중 국내경제 지표인 경제성장률, 경제적 위험 지표 중 대외거래 지표들, 경제적 위험 중 외채 관련 지표가 두 국가 간의 국가위험도 차이에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 국가위험도 분류에 따른 평가요소별 모수검정 결과를 토대로 판별요인 분석을 통해 두 국가 간의 국가위험도를 가장 잘 나타내는 요인들을 추가로 추정한 결과, 정치 사회적 위험 지표인 부패지수, 경제적 위험 중 국내경제 지표인 경제성장률, 경제적 위험 중 외채 관련 지표인 외환보유액/월평균수입이 캄보디아와 베트남 간의 국가위험도 차이를 잘 대변하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 캄보디아가 국가위험도를 베트남 수준으로 낮추기 위해서는 무엇보다도 부패척결, 수출증대 등 대외거래 확대가 필요하다고 할 것이다. 베트남 또한 지속적인 경제성장 달성과 외환보유고 증대에 주력할 필요가 있을 것이다.

The exchange rate volatility has been increased since the time when the floating exchange rate system was introduced in Korea. As a result, the increase of the exchange rate volatility raised the risk in international trades in Korea. The purpose of this study in to study the feature of exchange rate volatility and the main sources of its increase and to confirm whether the exchange rate volatility influence export volume and price of Korea. In the first place, I measured exchange rate volatility with two methods. The one is descriptive statistic method such as the width of daily exchange rate fluctuation and the rate of exchange rate devaluation. The other is the time varying conditional variance of exchange rate. Then, I studied the sources of exchange rate volatility. In the second place, I defined the exchange rate volatility as the time varying conditional variance and estimated it by using elastic a approach model which shows exchange rate is affected by itself and its conditional variance, I estimated its effects on export volumes and prices of electric home appliances, information & communication equal and semi-conductor. The result of this study is as follows. With presumed result EU and Korea because is not the goods which is to substantial competition relationship, The effect where the relative value change of presumed result expression anger and the dollar of import and export function goes mad to the import and export of Korea the income compared to is to export and it is appearing a lot. The EU goods is sold more expensively the Korean goods than from about length being caused by American market of the dollar and the balance of trade of Korea is visible like being visible the improvement of single breadth. Because the relationship of competition is weak but substantially there is to a short term and expression - the effect where the dollar rate fluctuation is big in Korean trade there is a possibility of saying that widely known it is not.
