The main objective of this study is to examine the mediating effect of 'international entrepreneurship' on the relationship between the determinants related to export and export performance. Data was collected from a survey of 200 exporting firms in Gwangju, Korea. The results of the study are as follows ; First, 'international entrepreneurship' are produced a mediating effect when the determinants affect export performance. Second, Resource-based factors and Industry organization factors have a positive impacts on export performance. However, relationship factor as a determinant does not have statistically significant correlation to export performance. Accordingly, in orer to enhance export performance, exporting firms in Korea should try more to prepare for resource-based factors and industry organization factors as determinants. In addition to these, if CEOs of exporting firms are equipped with international entrepreneurship spirits, they can increase the performance of their exporting firms. So they have to manage their exporting firms very strategically so that they can make their firms' export performance better and better.

수출은 해외 신규시장 개척을 가능케 하여 내수시장의 의존성을 줄여주는 역할을 한다. 또한 기업의 전략적 수단으로써 수출은 국가의 성장에 기여할 뿐 아니라 기업의 규모의 경제, 범위의 경제, 경험효과를 최대한 이용할 수 있는 기회를 제공한다. 실제로 내수시장의 성장 한계와 해외 시장에 대한 정보기술의 발달로 많은 기업들이 수출을 통해 해외 시장으로의 진출을 촉진시키고 있다. 본 논문은 대구에 위치한 기업들을 대상으로 산업조직론적 관점과 전략관점에 근거하여 각 변수들이 수출에 미치는 영향에 대해서 분석하였다. 산업조직론적 관점에서의 실증분석 결과를 살펴보면, 제도적 협력과 정부지원이 기업의 수출에 유의적으로 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 수출성과에는 제도적 협력만이 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 전략관점에서는 제품차별화, 해외수출망, 해외진출 국가 수가 수출에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 수출성과에는 해외수출망, 해외진출 국가 수가 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구의 가장 큰 목적은 좀 더 객관적인 관점에서 협력의 관계유형을 살펴보는데 있다. 지금껏 과거 연구에서는 수출기업과 물류기업 간의 관계를 단순히 협력, 혹은 제3자 물류의 유무로 구분했었고, 그 분류 방식 또한 상당히 단순하고 자의적이었다. 이에 관계유형에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 변수들을 식별해 내고 이를 바탕으로 군집분석을 실시했고, 확인 과정으로 t-test를 실시했다. 연구결과, 표면적으로 협력관계에 있는 수출기업과 물류기업의 유형에도 뚜렷하게 다른 협력의 유형이 존재하고 있었으며, 그 유형에 따른 성과차이도 서로 상이한 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 수출기업과 물류기업 간에는 다양한 관계가 존재하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 실제로 가장 적극적이고 포괄적인 협력관계를 구축한 수출 화주기업의 해외물류성과가 다른 협력관계의 기업에 비해 양호한 것으로 나타났다.

Political connections may facilitate firms' exporting activities, particularly in developing countries, because politically connected firms may be more likely to receive informational and financial support, allowing them to overcome barriers to export. We test this hypothesis using a unique, firm-level dataset from traditional apparel and textile clusters in the Red River Delta Region in Northern Vietnam. We find that political connection of certain types increases the chance of receiving valuable information or financial support from the government. Moreover, those firms that have access to government information have higher chances of being direct exporters. However, firms that receive financial support from the government are not necessarily engaged in exporting activities. Although politically connected firms are more willing to export, they do not necessarily engage in more exporting activities than firms without such connections. These results suggest that the misallocation of information and financial resources to politically connected but insufficiently productive firms leads to a failure to promote exporting activities. In contrast, political connection increases the chance of importing materials and parts, possibly because high productivity is necessary for exporting, but not for importing.

We compared and analyzed the effects of establishing multilateral FTA and bilateral FTA on the R&D investment of exporting firms when they compete in Cournot fashion and when the government of the importing country acts strategically. In the short run, we found that the importing country prefers to enter into a bilateral FTA with each exporting country separately for maximizing its welfare. However, we also found that, in the long run, it is more welfare-enhancing policy for importing country that entering into a multilateral FTA with all of the exporting countries simultaneously because it helps facilitate the R&D investment of exporting firms. But once entering into a multilateral FTA, the exporting firms would be faced with more intensive R&D investment competition and hence they would suffer severe welfare loss.

This study examines the effects of exporter agglomeration on purely local firms' decision to undertake internationalization and the resultant performance enhancement from internationalization using propensity score matching and difference-in-differences approach. We find that the likelihood of starting to export is higher when purely local firms are located in a region with a higher level of exporter agglomeration, as positive externalities allow them to overcome insufficient internal resources and reduce the large initial foreign market entry costs. We also find that newly exporting firms are more likely to experience greater performance enhancement from exporting when they are locate in a region with a lower level of exporter agglomeration.

This paper considers how the optimal export level is influenced by export risk, the degree of risk-averseness for exporting firms, and those firms' cost structure. In addition, export insurance is incorporated into some simple theoretical model to analyze the optimal export level. This paper applies genetic algorithm simulation to show that the exporting firms'risk-averseness do not affect the optimal export decision while export risk and cost function characteristic have relatively more significant effects on the optimal export level. Finally, our findings suggest that the most influential factor for the optimal export levels seems to be the monopoly power of exporting firms.

This study explores the effects of exports on the innovation of Korean firms listed on two Korean stock markets, the Korean Stock Exchange and the Korean Securities Dealers Quotations, between 1999 and 2016. By matching exporting firms to non-exporting ones with propensity score matching, this study accounts for a problem from sample selection bias that may arise from differences in firm-characteristics between the two groups. From the study results, first, both export participation and export volume significantly increase subsequent innovation performance, as measured by the number of patent applications. This result seems to support the "learning by exporting" hypothesis for Korean listed firms. Second, both export participation and export volume narrow innovation scope, proxied as the number of unique International Patent Classification (IPC) codes of the patent applied, the degree to which patents are concentrated in a particular class, and the degree of proximity in the patents. The findings of innovation scope suggest a possible explanation that the learning effect appears in familiar technology fields that firms have previously held, rather than in unfamiliar ones. Third, these results are robust using alternative proxies in the innovation scope, Tobit regressions to consider the non-trivial portion of sample firms with patent applications equal to zeros, and generalized method of moments (GMM) to control for the persistence of innovation measures hearing over years. Finally, the two main results are more pronounced in large firms than in small and medium-sized ones. As for Chaebol firms, however, these results do not appear.

이 논문은 외한위기 이후 2000년-2007년 기간 동안 한국의 기업단위 제조업체 패널자료를 이용하여 수출이 고용에 미치는 효과를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 수출의 잠재적인 내생성 문제와 분포 문제를 완화하기 위해 2단계 Tobit-DPD (Dynamic Panel Data) 모형을 기반으로 기업규모에 따라 표본기업을 대기업과 중소기업으로 나누어 동태 노동수요 모형을 추정하였다. 추정 결과 동태패널 노동수요 모형에서, 예상과 달리, 대부분 수출의 추정계수가 음의 부호로 유의하지 않게 나타났으며 노동수요에 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 또한 수출을 주도하는 대기업의 경우 역시 수출 확대가 고용을 촉진한다는 확실한 증거를 발견하지 못하였다. 이는 수출 증가가 국내 고용시장을 개선한다는 통상적인 믿음에 반(反)하는 결과이다. 또한 수출의 고용유발 계수가 낮아지는 경향과 일맥상통하며, 대기업이 부품의 해외 외주 생산을 확대하거나 현지 공장 생산의 의존도가 높아짐에 따라 국내 수출 확대가 고용창출에 기여하지 못하는, 이른바 '고용 없는 수출' 현상으로 유추해 볼 수 있다.

The aim of this paper is to empirically investigate whether and how domestic currency valuation is related to firm-level export competitiveness and profitability by using the unique firm-specific dataset on Bangladeshi nonfinancial firms which have been listed continuously from 2010 to 2018. To achieve the aim of this paper, 63 exporting firms are extracted from a total of 125 firms which have been continuously listed during 2010-2018 and used as the final sample firms. The Pedroni cointegration test reveals that export and import prices of the exporting firms are cointegrated in the short-run as well as long-run. The panel dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS) analysis finds that a firm's export competitiveness is maintained by high import inputs even in the presence of depreciation of Bangladeshi currency against the US dollar. Finally, the DuPont analysis finds that the depreciated Bangladeshi currency enhances an exporter's profitability. Conclusions based on the findings are consistent regardless of exchange rate types, such as, real bilateral exchange rate and nominal or real effective exchange rate indexes. Consequently, the firm-level findings of this investigation suggest that undervalution of home currency is essential for Bangaldesh which is one of the frontier markets in South Asia whose exporting firms are mostly price followers in global markets.
