Purpose - This study aims in analyzing the dynamic relationship between household loans and housing prices according to the characteristics of depository institutions after the financial crisis, identifying the recent trends between them, and making policy suggestions for stabilizing house prices. Design/methodology/approach - The monthly data used in this study are household loans, household loan interest rates, and housing prices ranging from January 2012 to May 2020, and came from ECOS of the Bank of Korea and Liiv-on of Kookmin Bank. This study used vector auto-regression, generalized impulse response function, and forecast error variance decomposition with the data so as to yield analysis results. Findings - The analysis of this study no more shows that the household loan interest rates in both deposit banks and non-bank deposit institutions had statistically significant effects on housing prices. Also, unlike the previous studies, there was statistically significant bi-directional causality between housing prices and household loans in neither deposit banks nor non-bank deposit institutions. Rather, it was found that there is a unidirectional causality from housing prices to household loans in deposit banks, which is considered that housing prices have one-sided effects on household loans due to the overheated housing market after the financial crisis. Research implications or Originality - As a result, Korea's housing market is closely related to deposit banks, and housing prices are acting as more dominant information variables than interest rates or loans under the long-term low interest rate trend. Therefore, in order to stabilize housing prices, the housing supply must be continuously made so that everyone can enjoy housing services equally. In addition, the expansion and reinforcement of the social security net should be realized systematically so as to stop households from being troubled with the housing price decline.

Purpose - Since COVID-19, the government's expansion of liquidity to stimulate the economy has resulted in an increase in private debt and an increase in asset prices of such as real estate and stocks. The recent sharp rise of the US Federal fund rate and tapering by the Fed have led to a fast rise in domestic interest rates, putting a heavy burden on the Korean economy, where the level of household debt is very high. Excessive household debt might have negative effects on the economy, such as shrinking consumption, economic recession, and deepening economic inequality. Therefore, now more than ever, it is necessary to identify the causes of the increase in household debt. Design/methodology/approach - Main methodology is regression analysis. Dependent variable is household loans from depository institutions. Independent variables are consumer price index, unemployment rate, household loan interest rate, housing sales price index, and composite stock price index. The sample periods are from 2017 to May 2022, comprising 72 months of data. The comparative analysis period before and after COVID-19 is from January 2017 to December 2019 for the pre-COVID-19 period, and from Jan 2020 to December 2022 for the post-COVID-19 period. Findings - Looking at the results of the regression analysis for the entire period, it was found that increases in the consumer price index, unemployment rate, and household loan interest rates decrease household loans, while increases in the housing sales price index increase household loans. Research implications or Originality - Household loans of depository institutions are mainly made up of high-credit and high-income borrowers with good repayment ability, so the risk of the financial system is low. As household loans are closely linked to the real estate market, the risk of household loan defaults may increase if real estate prices fall sharply.

This paper analyzes the effects of the cut in the legal maximum interest rate (from 27.4% to 24%) that occurred in February of 2018 on loan interest rates, the default rates, and the loan approval rate of borrowers in the non-banking sector. We use the difference-in-difference identification strategy to estimate the effect of the cut in the legal maximum interest rate using micro-level data from a major credit-rating company. The legal maximum rate cut significantly lowers the loan interest rate and default rate of low-credit borrowers (i.e., high-credit-risk borrowers) in the non-banking sector. However, this effect is limited to borrowers who have not been excluded from the market despite the legal maximum interest rate cut. The loan approval rate of low-credit borrowers decreased significantly after the legal maximum interest rate cut. Meanwhile, the loan approval rate of high-credit and medium-credit (i.e., low credit risk and medium credit risk) borrowers increased. This implies that financial institutions in the non-banking sector should reduce the loan supply to low-credit borrowers who are no longer profitable while increasing the loan supply to high- and medium-credit borrowers.

The goal of this research is to examine how credit (loan) can help rural households in Tra Vinh province create jobs in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak in Vietnam over the last two years. The authors performed a direct survey, using a questionnaire, with 300 customers who had loan records at the Tra Vinh VBSP branch under the loan programs. From January to April 2021, jobs will be available at 07 transaction offices in districts and cities (Cau Ngang; Duyen Hai, Tieu Can, Cang Long, Tra Vinh City, Chau Thanh, Tra Cu). Using the multivariate regression method, the research has found 12 factors affecting the ability to access the employment loan program: Age, Educational Level, Occupation of households, Income, Household land area, Asset, Loan, Interest rates, Loan procedures, Loan purpose, Credit relations. From the above research results, the authors have proposed solutions to improve the ability to access credit to create jobs for each subject group at Viet Nam Bank for Social Policies, Tra Vinh Province in the future.

본 연구에서는 국내 최초로 총 2,210만명의 개인신용 전수미시자료에 기초하여 차주별 특성 및 금융업권별로 부채상환능력을 비교 분석하고, 거시경제 충격에 따른 금융권역별 총부채상환비율(DTI)과 불량률의 변화, 차환위험 분석 등을 통해 가계부채의 건전성을 평가하였다. 실증분석 결과, 차주별로는 저소득 근로자와 고소득 자영업자의 부채상환부담이 상대적으로 높고, 금융업권별로는 캐피탈 및 카드사의 저소득 차주군, 상호저축은행의 고소득 차주군, 은행과 제2금융권 금융회사로부터 복수의 부채를 보유한 차주군의 부채상환능력이 특히 취약한 것으로 분석되었다. 시나리오 분석 결과, 향후 연간 금리 상승폭이 3%p, 소득감소율이 5% 수준 이내인 경우 가계의 부채상환부담 및 불량률 상승효과는 금융권이 현재의 자기자본으로 충분히 흡수할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 세부 권역별로는 캐피탈, 카드사, 상호저축은행 등 이미 차주의 DTI가 높은 제2금융권을 중심으로 가계부채의 부실화 가능성이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 최근 가계부채 증가가 고소득층의 주택담보대출을 중심으로 이루어져서 상대적으로 안전하다는 견해가 있으나 고소득 차주군, 특히 자영업 고소득 차주군의 DTI 및 고위험군 비중이 높게 나타나, 향후 DTI 규제, 금리 상승 등으로 만기도래하는 일시상환형 주택담보대출의 차환이 어려울 경우 주택가격 하락과 함께 가계부실이 증가할 수 있음에 유의할 필요가 있다. 본 분석 결과는 기존의 거시총량지표를 이용한 가계부실위험 모니터링과 더불어 CB 등 미시자료를 이용한 차주 단위 분석을 결합하여 거시건전성 감독 차원에서 보다 심층적인 가계부채의 위험관리가 필요함을 시사한다.

The market for a payday advance, regarded as both a convenient and short term-loan for immediate financial help, has grown incredibly since the 1990's. Despite its popularity by borrowers and the possible benefits, it has received negative publicity. Some borrowers have been caught in a debt trap for a long-term period and at tripledigit interest rates. The objective of this study is to shed light on the borrowers' profiles and their demand for a payday advance. Based on the 2010 household level data from the U.S. Federal Reserve Board, this study finds that payday advance users are pronounced as seemingly risky people. Payday advance users tend to be college drop-outs, African Americans, and non-homeowners compared to non-payday advance users. They are more likely to overspend above their income and have a favorable attitude toward conspicuous spending than non-payday advance users. They tend not to shop at all nor perform even moderate shopping for credit before using a payday advance service as opposed to non-payday advance users.

2018년 부동산시장은 정부의 강력한 부동산규제에 따라 거래가 거의 이루어지지 않고 있고, 미국의 기준금리 인상에 따른 대출금리 상승으로 하락국면으로 접어들 가능성이 높다. 대형건설사는 주요 매출수익은 해외플랜트와 민간개발사업 으로 나누어지는데, 해외플랜트사업은 예상치 못한 설계변경 및 공기지연으로 대규모 손실이 나타나 신용등급이 하락되는 어려움을 겪었다. 민간개발사업의 경우도 부동산시장이 하락국면으로 접어들고 있어 전체적인 사업리스크가 상승하고 있다. 중소형증권사의 경우 증권영업의 적자로 인해 수익을 만회하고자 PF시장에 적극적으로 참여하여 단기간에 많은 영업이익을 시현하였지만, 현재는 서울을 제외한 지역은 분양이 쉽지 않고, 대형건설사 재무상태도 양호하지 않아 기 취급된 PF유동화증권이 우발채무가 발생하면 유동성 위기에 직면할 수 있다. 예전의 저축은행 사태를 경험하였듯이 금융감독원의 선제적인 관리방안과 감독방향을 제시하여 위기를 극복해야 할 것이다.
