The more liquid the capital market, the more attractive it will be for investors to place their money in the capital market. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that influence stock liquidity of manufacturing sector companies listed on the stock exchange in Indonesia. The independent variables used in this study are forward-looking information disclosure, institutional ownership, foreign ownership, and board activity with information asymmetry as an intervening variable and stock liquidity as the dependent variable. The population of this study is manufacturing sector companies listed on the Indonesian stock exchange (IDX). Samples are selected based on the random sampling method, and the number of samples is calculated based on the Slovin formula. The sample was 59 manufacturers, and data was annual reports (for 2 years) and stock transactions from 2016 to 2017. The results of the study showed that forward-looking information disclosure had a significant effect on information asymmetry. Information asymmetry and foreign ownership have a significant impact on stock liquidity, whereas information asymmetry mediates the relationship between forward-looking disclosures and stock liquidity. Furthermore, the accuracy of information about the certainty of business activity both now and in the future can instill confidence in stakeholders in interacting and cooperating.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) plays a vital role in economic growth of the countries. The present study analyses the impact of the FDI on economic growth of South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation countries by using the pooled data for the period 1990-2014. Neo-classical production function has been used for analysis and getting stock-to-flow estimation, Taylor series approximation has applied. Fixed Effects Model has been used to investigate the impact of FDI, domestic capital, labour and government expenditures on economic growth. It is the evident from the results that both domestic investment and FDI have been a positive effect on economic growth. The study finds that the contribution of domestic private investment is more trustworthy than the contribution of FDI. Consequently, FDI loses its attraction as an engine of growth if the adverse balance of payment consequence of the resulting profit repatriating is also taken into account. The labour has positive and significant association with GDP. The effect of government expenditure is negligible on economic growth. The findings suggest that growth strategy cannot yield the long term benefits if it neglects investments on human capital.

This study aims to investigate the effects of foreign students' entrepreneurship on start-up recognition and intention. Due to the expanded policy of attracting foreign students with current Korean wave, it has rapidly increased the number of foreign students in Korea. The number of foreign students in Korea has increased from 50,000 up to 100,000 in 2012. Approximately half of number was resided in Seoul capital, surrounding satellite cities and followed by Kyeongsang, Chungcheong and Jeolla province regions. In this study, we examined the correlation of entrepreneurship with start-up recognition and intention of foreign students living in Daejeon city. The research model was constructed with entrepreneurship and start-up intention as independent and dependent variable, respectively, and start-up recognition as a moderating variable. Furthermore, the entrepreneurship of foreign students as independent variable contains innovativeness, pro-activeness, risk-taking and social responsibility. In the survey, we collected 119 responding foreign students belonging to KAIST, Chungnam National University and Hanbat National University and analyzed the correlations of these variables with 116 significant answers. To validate the hypotheses, linear regression analysis tool in SPSS program was used. As a result of the survey, entrepreneurship components such as innovativeness, pro-activeness, risk-taking and social responsibility affected start-up intention positively. In addition, start-up recognition as a moderating variable affected positively between entrepreneurship and start-up intention. However, it has the limitation to generalize the overall correlation of entrepreneurship with start-up recognition and intention for foreign students living in Korea because the survey was only performed in restricted Daejeon city area. Nonetheless, this study can be useful for understanding the foreign students's trait for entrepreneurship and planning the adequate entrepreneurship education.

우리나라의 경제자유구역은 2003년 인천, 부산 진해, 광양만을 지정하여 운영해 오다 2008년 황해, 새만금 군산, 대구 경북의 3개 지역을 추가로 지정하여 총 6개의 경제자유구역을 운영하고 있다. 경제자유구역은 무역의존도가 높은 우리나라에서 새로운 경제성장의 견인차 역할을 수행할 수 있는 제도라 할 수 있다. 그러나, 현재의 경제자유구역 운영방식으로는 당초의 목적을 달성하는데 여러 가지의 문제점을 낳고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 경제자유구역의 운영실태 분석을 통하여 향후 우리나라 경제자유구역의 성공적 운영을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 첫째, 외국자본유치를 위한 소프트웨어 경쟁력을 강화할 필요성이 있다. 현재 우리나라의 경제자유구역은 하드웨어 측면의 정주여건 즉, 토지개발에만 초점을 맞추고 있으며, 경영환경지원은 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 경영환경지원의 획기적인 개선을 통하여 외국자본유치를 위한 활동을 전개해야 할 것이다. 둘째, 각 정제자유구역별 지역 특색에 맞는 투자유치 모델을 새롭게 정립할 필요하다. 현재의 기본구상을 재조정하여 유치산업분야의 중복을 방지하고 나아가 각 경제자유구역별 차별화된 투자유치 전략을 개발해야 한다. 셋째, 경제자유구역청의 독립성과 전문성 강화를 위한 제도적 장치가 개선되어야 한다. 각 경제자유구역청의 전문성과 독립성을 강화하기 위하여 인력구성이나, 운영규정 등에 있어 경제자유구역청의 권한을 대폭 확대하고 이를 견제하고 감시할 수 있는 방향으로 법 개정이 이루어져야 한다.

The primary goal of this paper is to explore the microeconomic foundation of Korean firms' adoption of foreign technologies. The paper also reviews the overall trend of international technology transfers to Korea. The period covered in this paper is Korea's high growth era, from the 1960s to the 1990s. The works of this paper center on the two questions of what characterizes foreign technologies which had been imported through licensing contracts, and which driving forces expedite technology adoption by firms. The Korean experience provides the context of success in the catch-up growth. The co-movement of technology imports with capital goods imports manifests Korea's effort to improve the technical efficiency toward the world frontier. Underlying this trend are firms' decisions to adopt new technologies. The paper shows that firms respond proactively to wage increases by adopting newer technologies and thus, in turn, increasing employment, which implies the existence of a virtuous interactive mechanism among these factors.

This paper examines the changing roles of ownership in the economic growth by using a panel data set of 30 provinces in China for the period (1999-2010). With the use of absolute and relative presence variables, this study shows that private enterprises have emerged as the engine of economic growth in China in the later period (2005-2010). The growing size and number of private enterprises are positively linked to growth. However, though foreign-invested enterprises have been acclaimed as the main contributors to economic growth in China, they have minimal effect on the economic growth in the later period. State-owned enterprises have a significant and negative effect on the economic growth in the later period. The results can be interpreted that the engine of growth in China has been changed over time from other ownerships to private ownership. Private companies have developed a lot in every respect and started to lead the economy for long-run growth. China initiated its economic growth by adopting foreign capital and it is still the top destination for foreign direct investment among developing countries. However, to sustain the growth over a long period, private sector should be of great importance and perform a key role in the view of catch-up economics.

본 논문은 한국이 1997년 외환위기 이후 변동환율제 도입과 더불어 자본자유화로 자본시장이 글로벌화된 상황에서 외부로부터 독립적인 통화정책을 유지할 수 있었는지를 자본자유화 이전 기간과 비교하여 분석했다. 트릴레마 이론에 비추어보면, 자본자유화 이전에는 환율시장에 적극적으로 개입을 해도 이론적으로 독립적인 통화정책을 유지할 수 있는 여지가 있었으며, 자본자유화 이후에는 환율제도가 자유변동환율제도로 전환함에 따라 독립적인 통화정책을 유지할 수 있는 여지가 있었다. 하지만 한국과 같은 소규모 개방경제의 경우 자본시장이 완전히 개방되어 국가 간 연계성이 증가하고, 막대한 양의 국제자본 유출입이 발생하여 환율과 자산 시장의 심각한 불안정성을 초래할 수 있으므로 외국의 통화정책과 자본 흐름으로부터 완전히 자유로운 통화정책을 집행하기 어려울 수 있다. 본 논문의 실증분석에서는 부를 미국으로 국한하여 한국의 통화정책이 미국의 통화정책으로부터 독립적인지 블록 외생성 구조 VAR 모형을 이용하여 자세히 분석하였다. 그 결과 한국의 통화정책이 자본자유화 이전과 이후 두 기간 모두에서 미국의 통화정책으로부터 완전히 독립적으로 운용되지 못하였던 것으로 보인다. 자본자유화 이후 기간의 경우 완전한 변동환율제를 실제로 운용하기는 쉽지 않았고, 이로 인해 필연적으로 한국의 통화정책은 외부의 충격으로부터 완전히 독립적이지 못했던 것으로 보인다. 또한 자본자유화 이후 기간에는 포트폴리오 자본의 유출입이 자본자유화 이전 기간에 비해 매우 민감하게 변화하여 독립적인 통화정책의 운영에 어려움을 초래한 것으로 보인다. 따라서 향후 자본의 글로벌화에 효과적으로 대응하면서 통화정책을 독립적으로 유지할 수 있는 정책의 틀을 개발하는 것이 시급하다고 하겠다.

Since 1980's there have been two trends that obviously developed in the would -- economics globalization and urban internationalization. China, with is reform and opening-up policy and rapid economic growth, keeps pace with these two trends. The term "International City" has no putative standard or definition. If we make an analogue of urban functional hierarchy in the world with a pyramid, the International Citiesa are the few elites on its top. The highest level international cities can be called "World City" or "Global City". In today's new international division of labor, they are diversified leading cities with control capacity on a world scale, like New York, London, and Tokyo. The secondary international cities are either diversified cities with influence and regulative functions on multinational scale or specialized cities on politics, economics, culture, or other aspects with worldwide impact. Judged by different criteria, there is no city that is qualified as International City with the exception of Hong Kong, which was returned to the P.R. of China in 1997. Nevertheless, Some favorable conditions for the development of the international city still exist in China. This country is already the sixth largest economic entity in the world, and the second largest economic entity in the world, and the second largest one if GNP estimated by ppp. Furthermore its import and export value make up for 40% of its GNP, indicating that China is repidly merging into global economy. In this 1, 2 billion-population country, the difference of economic levels between urban and rural, coastal and inland regions is so big that a few metropolises in the coastal region have the possibilities and potentials to develop into international cities regardless of rather low GNP per capita of the whole country. This article will focus on analysis from several perspectives, such as the proportion of foreign trade values in GDP, the proportion of imports and exports by foreign funded enterprises in total foreign trade value; distribution of the 500 largest foreign-funded enterprises; distribution of the 500 enterprises with largest import and export values; distrigbution of foreign computer and telecom companies with offices in China; the number of outward flights per week and the international tourists; the value of foreign capital used in cities and so on. From this analysis, it is predicted that Chinese international cities will surely emergy from the eastern coastal regions and they must be the core cities of metropolitan interlocking regions that have been formed or in the process of forming. Those international cities will arise from south to north in turn : Hong Kong-Guangzhu, Shanghai, Beijing-Tianjin, and perhaps the last one is Dalian-Shenyang. The other side of this issue is that there is a long way for the coming international cities in China except Hong Kong. At least China and these core cities must continually devote to (1) improve the regional composition of foreign capital sources. (2) improve the composition of export commodities. (3) improve the investment environment (including hard and soft environment) to attract more transnational corporations to settle. (4) deepen the reform of state-owned enterprises and establish Chinese own transnational corporations to enter the world market.ons to enter the world market.

한국의 벤처캐피탈은 투자규모가 세계적인 수준이나 창업초기단계 벤처기업에 대한 투자가 미흡하고 첨단기술 분야 및 수도권에 투자가 집중된 데다 신규상장 및 M&A 시장의 높은 진입장벽 등으로 벤처캐피탈의 투자자금 회수 등이 어려운 상황이다. 첨단기술 벤처기업의 경우 투자자와 벤처기업간 정보의 비대칭성으로 투자자금 조달에 어려움을 겪을 수 있으나 벤처금융 선진국은 정부 자금지원시 시장과 민간투자자와의 연계, 해외 저명 벤처캐피탈사와의 공동투자 유도 등 다양한 유인설계(incentive mechanism design)를 통해 동 문제를 해결하고 있다. 이러한 점들을 감안하여 우리 정부 및 지자체는 민간부문과의 공동펀드 확대, 지역별로 특화된 매칭펀드 조성, M&A 등 벤처캐피탈사의 출구경로 다양화 등을 통해 창업벤처생태계를 개선하는 데 주력할 필요가 있으며, 벤처캐피탈사도 외국 벤처캐피탈사와의 공동투자 등을 통해 투자대상 기업선정 및 가치증대 활동에 노력을 경주할 필요가 있다.

본 논문은 개방경제 체제하에서 우리나라의 임금소득과 자본소득이 소득불평등에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위한 것이다. 공적분추정에 의한 실증분석 결과에 의하면 우리나라의 경우 임금소득과 자본소득이 장단기적으로 소득불평등에 미치는 영향이 상반되며, 자본소득보다 임금소득에 의한 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 자본소득이 소득불평등에 미치는 영향이 작은 것은 그 동안 자본시장이 지속적으로 확대되어 왔음에도 불구하고 대부분의 해외자본이 국내에서 직접적으로 생산 활동에 참여하지 않았기 때문인 것으로 보인다. 또한, 개방화는 장단기 모두 소득불평등을 악화시키는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 우리나라의 경우 소득불평등을 개선하기 위해서는 임금소득을 효율적으로 분배할 수 있는 체계의 구축이 필요하다 하겠다. 그리고 개방화의 확대에 따라 야기되는 소득불평등의 악화를 해소하기 위해서는 수출산업의 전후방 파급경로를 재구축하여 소득분배를 개선하는데 활용할 필요가 있다 하겠다.
