In recent years, the money Laundering crimes are increasing by means of foreign exchange transactions. Our study proposes four scoring models to provide early warning of the laundering in foreign exchange transactions for both inward and outward remittances: logistic regression model, decision tree, neural network, and ensemble model which combines the three models. In terms of accuracy of test data, decision tree model is selected for the inward remittance and an ensemble model for the outward remittance. From our study results, the accumulated number of transaction turns out to be the most important predictor variable. The proposed scoring models deal with the transaction level and is expected to help the bank teller to detect the laundering related transactions in the early stage.

Purpose - Since 1990, the sudden stop in capital flows has caused the economic crisis. The purpose of this research is to suggest the policy measures to mitigate the risk of the sudden stop in capital flows. To this end, we examine the theoretical framework and analyze the case study for countries which are faced with the sudden stop. Also we examine the structural problems of the foreign exchange market in Korea and derive the policy implications to prevent the sudden stop. Research design, data, and methodology - The criteria of whether the sudden stop in capital flows occurs are based upon Calvo et al. (2008). In case the proxy variable for the balance of capital account decreases from the average by over twice standard deviation, we determine that the sudden stop occurs for that country. The sample period is from January 1990 to December 2008, as in Calvo (2014). The sample countries are 17 developed countries and 19 emerging market countries, which are different from those of the previous papers as Agosin and Huaita (2012), and Calvo (2014). When the exchange market pressure index(EMPI) is deviated from the average by over three times standard deviation, we determine that the foreign exchange market is unstable for that country. Results - We find that the characteristics of the sudden stop in capital flows are the bunching or contagion among countries, the rapid drop in real effective exchange rate, and the huge decrease in foreign exchange reserves. Many countries tried to increase foreign exchange reserves and regulate capital flows. Also the foreign exchange market in Korea are found to be the volatile exchange rate, the vulnerable external debt and careless management of the foreign exchange derivatives transaction risk. Conclusions - To lessen the risk in the sudden stop of capital flows, this research suggests the some useful policy measures. To enhance the foreign exchange and distribution market stability, we should improve the price mechanism of exchange rate, hold the appropriate level of foreign exchange reserves, prevent excessive inflows of foreign exchange and promote sound transactions of foreign exchange derivatives.

외국인 투자자가 한국 시장에 투자를 하는 경우 외국인 투자자는 투자자산에 내재된 환위험과 함께 수익을 환산하는 과정에서의 환위험에 노출된다. 외국인 투자자의 이러한 상황은 투자자산에 내재된 환위험만을 고려하면 되는 국내 투자자와는 구분되는 상황이다. 이러한 차이는 외국인 투자자가 환위험에 대해 국내 투자자와는 다르게 반응하는 원인이 될 수 있다. 환위험에 관한 국내의 기존 연구는 한국 기업들이 환위험에 노출되어 있고 이에 대한 관리가 필요하다는 점을 잘 보여주었다. 또한 동일한 시장이라 하더라도 시장 참여자의 특성에 따라 시장이 분할 될 수 있다는 증거들이 보고되었다. 이러한 기존 연구 결과는 환위험이 시장을 분할하는 요인이 될 수 있음을 지지하는 것이다. 이 연구는 한국유가증권시장에서 외국인 투자자들의 환위험에 대한 반응을 거래량 자료와 주문량 자료를 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과 외국인 투자자는 환위험을 나타내는 공분산이 음수인 경우 매도거래를 증가시킨다. 이는 환율이 상승하면서 주식수익률이 하락하는 환위험을 적극적으로 관리하기 위한 거래의 결과로 해석할 수 있다. 주문자료에 대한 분석 결과도 이러한 해석을 뒷받침한다. 한편, 외국인 투자자는 공분산이 음수인 경우 매입거래도 증가시키는 것으로 분석되었는데 이는 환율이 하락하면서 주식수익률이 상승하고 투자수익의 환산이익도 함께 증가하는 관계를 적극적으로 활용하기 위한 거래의 결과로 해석할 수 있다. 그러나 외국인 투자자의 매입주문비율 분석 결과는 거래자료 분석 결과와는 달리 유의적인 결과가 나타나지 않았다. 이 연구의 분석 결과는 외국인 투자자는 국내 자산에 내재된 환위험에 대해서 국내 투자자와는 다른 반응을 보인다는 가설을 지지한다. 외국인 투자자는 환율이 상승(하락)하는 경우 기업가치가 상승(하락)하는 방향의 환위험에서는 국내 투자자와 차별적인 반응을 보이지 않는다. 그러나 환율이 상승(하락)하면 기업 가치가 하락(상승)하는 방향의 환위험에서는 국내투자에 비해 거래를 증가시키는 차별적인 특성을 보인다. 이러한 결과는 한국유가증권시장에서 외국인투자자는 환위험에 대하여 국내 투자자와는 다른 평가를 하고 있으며 이러한 차이는 투자자산의 평가에 반영되고 있음을 나타낸다.

With a view to attracting foreign investment and growing the economy, the Vietnamese government has hastened financial reforms, including the lifting of limitations on foreign investment, which has resulted in rapidly rising foreign ownership in recent years. To study the relationship between transactions of foreign investors and transactions of domestic investors on two stock exchanges in Vietnam Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange (HSX) and Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX). This study applies a secondary dataset comprising daily market trading information of 912 stocks from 18 industries listed on 2 Vietnam stock exchanges, including HSX and HNX, which includes executed price, executed volume, daily Buy Orders, and Sell Orders categorized into domestic investors' orders and foreign investors orders from 01.04.2010 to 10.04.2018. The regression results show a significantly positive relationship between foreign investors' trading and domestic investors' transaction in all trading activities in both up and down markets. Therefore, these results indicate that domestic investors in Vietnam are concerned with foreign investors' trading as an important sign, and domestic investors tend to follow their counterparties without appropriate fundamental information. From there, there are signs of herding behavior of domestic investors following foreign investors in transactions on the stock market in Vietnam.

This study aims to analyze the foreign asset leverage effect on Korean oil & gas companies' foreign profits and to maintain the appropriate foreign asset volume for reducing exchange risk. For a long time, large Korean companies, including oil companies, overheld foreign currency liabilities. For this reason, most large companies have been burdened to hedge exchange risk and this excess limit holding deteriorated total profit and reduced foreign currency asset management efficiency. Our paper proceeds in presenting a three-stage analysis considering diversified exchange risk factors through estimation on transformation of foreign transactions a/c including annual trends of foreign asset and industry specifics. We also supplement incomplete the estimation method through a practical hedging case investigation. Our research parts are differentiated on the analyzing four periods considering period-specifics The FER value of the oil firms ranged from -0.3 to +2.3 over the entire period. The results of the FER Value are volatile and irregular; those results do not represent the industry standard comparative index. The Korean oil firms are over the credit limit without accurate prediction and finance high interest rate funds from foreign-owned banks on the basis on a biased relationship. Since the IMF crisis, liabilities of global firms have decreased. Above all, oil firms need to finance a minimum limit without opportunity losses on the demand forecast and prepare for uncertainty in the market. To reduce exchange risk from the over-the-limit position, we must consider factors that affect the corporate exchange risk on the entire business process, including the contract phase.

This research aimed to analyze the momentum strategy of foreign investors with the smallest trading transactions in the Indonesian stock market. This study applied a quantitative method approach using intraday transaction data of companies listed on the LQ-45 Index for March, April, and May 2017, obtained from the Indonesia Capital Market Institute (TICMI) which is a subsidiary of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The number of companies with available data is 35 companies, consisting of 23 non-government stocks and 12 government stocks. The number of observations from the 35 companies was 8,686,030 observations where the government companies recorded 2,751, 545 and the non-government companies 1,387,016 observations. All data was then squeezed and grouped into small, medium, and large trade transaction orders. The data analysis method used was paired t-test with SPSS to analyze cumulative abnormal returns in the formulation and test periods. This study found that small foreign investors carried out momentum strategies on stocks listed on the LQ-45 Index. However, re-testing was done by separating government and non-government shares. It turned out that small foreign investors performed a momentum strategy on non-government and a contrarian strategy on government.
