2008년 글로벌 금융위기가 유동성위험에서 촉발되었으므로 금융위기 이후 유동성위험 관리방안에 대해 많은 연구들이 수행되었다. 그러나 투자자 보호 정도가 은행들의 유동성위험에 영향을 미치는지에 대해서는 전 세계적으로 아직 연구된 바가 없으므로 본 연구에서는 투자자 보호와 유동성위험과의 관계를 고찰하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하였다. 경제협력개발기구(OECD) 21개국 상업은행들을 대상으로 패널데이터를 구축하여 분석한 결과, 투자자에 대한 보호 수준이 높을수록 은행들의 유동성위험이 낮아짐을 발견하였다. 또한 투자자 보호의 이러한 긍정적 효과는 금융위기 기간 동안 더욱 강화되는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 금융위기 기간 동안 시행되는 강력한 경기부양책으로 인해 시장에 의한 규율이 약화된 상황에서 법적인 투자자 보호제도가 은행들의 건전성 제고에 기여할 수 있음을 시사한다.

In determining the content of the FET standard, the tribunals stated protection of investor's legitimate expectations, due process and denial of justice, transparency, discrimination and arbitrariness, good faith, etc. The most major elements of the FET standard is the protection of the investor's legitimate and reasonable expectations. It is necessary to consider whether it is possible to what the expectations of investors are protected as legitimate and it is formed under any circumstances. If host state frustrate investor's legitimate expectations, it found a breach of the FET. The host state's specific assurance may reinforce investor's expectations, but such explicit statement is not always necessary. The host state must preserve a stable environment for investments. However, It must not be understood as the inalterability of the host state's legal framework. It implies that the host state's subsequent changes should be made consistently and predictably. The host state is entitled to exercise a reasonable regulatory authority to respond to changing circumstances in the public purpose. Therefore, whether the violation FET shall be determined through a balanced against the investor's legitimate expectations and the host state's reasonable regulatory exercise in the public interest. And investor should keep in mind that the principle of proportionality is applied unless host state provides stabilization clause or similar commitments to investor. Also host state should establish the basis of an argument about reasonable regulatory authority for public interest.

본 연구는 투자자보호가 위험선호에 미치는 영향이 성장기회에 따라 달라질 수 있음을 실증적으로 검증하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 또한 그러한 위험선호가 기업가치에 미치는 영향도 성장기회에 따라 다를 것이라는 점을 검증하고자 한다. 이러한 연구는 모든 기업에서 위험을 선호하는 것이 투자자의 이해와 일치한다는 전제에 따라 투자자보호와 위험선호 간의 관계를 일률적으로 분석한 기존연구와 달리 성장기회에 따라 투자자보호와 위험선호간의 관계가 다르다는 것을 고려한다는 점에서 차별화된다. 분석결과에 따르면 성장기회가 큰 기업의 경우에서는 투자자보호 수준이 높을수록 기업의 경영위험 선호가 높아지지만, 성장기회가 낮은 기업의 경우에서는 투자자보호 수준이 경영위험 선호에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 성장기회가 큰 기업에서는 경영위험 선호가 기업가치 제고에 통계적으로 유의한 양의 영향을 끼치지만, 성장기회가 낮은 기업에서는 경영위험 선호가 기업가치 제고에 미치는 영향이 작거나 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

When any investment dispute arises, the investor has to exhaust the local remedies available in the host state, and according to the agreement between the parties, the investor is filed to the ICSID arbitral tribunal to seek arbitral awards. At this time, if the arbitral tribunal decides that the investment agreement has been violated, it normally demands the host state to provide financial compensations to the investor for economic loss. According to the rules of the investment agreement, the host state is supposed to fulfill the arbitral awards voluntarily. If it is unwilling to provide financial compensations according to the arbitral awards, however, the investor may ask the domestic court of the host state for the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards. In addition, if the host state is unwilling to fulfill arbitral awards on account of state immunity, the investor may ask his own country (state of nationality) for diplomatic protection and urge it to demand the fulfillment of arbitral awards. Effectiveness for pecuniary damages, a means to solve problems arising in the enforcement of investment arbitral awards, is found to be rather ineffective. For such cases, this study suggests an alternative to demand either a restitution of property or a corrections of violated measures subject to arbitral awards.

South Korea has investment agreements such as FTAs, BITs with several countries. Up to now, no single case has been registered against the Korean government on breach of investment agreements, but it is likely that the number of such cases would increase. Therefore, an investor-state dispute settlement system, an arbitral procedure by which a foreign investor may seek compensation of damage against the host country, is gaining its importance. The provision of the ISDS has been one of the hottest issues in Korea while the Kor-US FTA was being signed. In this respect, with the growing number of regional agreements such as BITs and FTAs, a careful scrutiny on the ISDS is necessary for Korea. I have therefore studied theoretically subjects including the National Treatment(NT), the Most-Favored Nation(MFN), Fair and Equitable Treatment and Expropriation - those that have been the objects of protection on investors. And I have analyzed ICSID arbitral awards and provided implications. In the ICSID arbitral awards, the Fair and Equitable Treatment turned out to be the most recognized violation on investors by the host State in terms of investor protection. On the other hand, Indirect Expropriation - a matter of which public anxiety was shown led by civic groups - was not generally recognized in arbitral awards. This study is written for sake of governments, local autonomous entities and public enterprises that are in charge of FTAs and BITs.

본 연구에서는 세계 각국의 자료를 이용하여 현금보유와 발생액의 질로 측정한 재무보고의 질의 관계를 연구하였다. 본 연구의 실증분석결과는 미국을 제외한 세계 각국의 시장에서 현금보유가 재무보고의 불투명성과 양의 상관관계가 있음을 발견하였다. 이러한 관계는 투자자보호가 강해짐에 따라 더욱 강하게 나타났는데, 이것은 대리인 동기가 아닌 예방적 동기가 불투명한 기업의 현금보유의 주요 결정요인임을 보여준다. 이러한 양의 상관관계는 재량적 발생액의 질에서 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 투자자보호를 그 속성별로 나누어 본 결과는 규제기관을 통한 투자자보호가 기업 재무보고의 불투명성과 현금보유 사이의 양의 관계를 강화하는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the standard of fair and equitable treatment. Although most international investment treaties prescribe fair and equitable treatment that is the obligation to provide fair and equitable treatment to foreign investor, there is no clear definition and specific elements of fair and equitable treatment. Through the arbitral award cases we can find that tribunals have interpreted to include six principles; Due process & Protection from denial of justice, Good faith, Reasonableness & Nondiscrimination, Compliance with contractual obligation, Full protection and security, Transparency & Protection of the investor's legitimate expectations. This study suggest that host countries and investors focus on international trends concerning investment disputes in order to avoid future disputes. So future disputes can be prevented and prepared in advance.

In this paper, I propose a general hypothesis that after the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOA) financial statements convey more accurate and reliable corporate information to investors who in turn reflect such improvements in stock prices and test four practical hypotheses that simultaneously feature the degree of information asymmetry, forecast bias, and investor reaction to biased earnings information. The empirical results unanimously suggest that the post-SOA investors take advantage of the improvement in informational efficiency and accuracy and actively adjust for analyst forecast bias in earnings forecasts. The SOA indeed appears to achieve its primary goal of investor protection.

The purpose of this article is to examine the Utilization of Umbrella Clauses in Investor-State Contract Disputes. To accomplish the purpose, this article analyzes the ICSID case of SGS v. Pakistan and SGS v. Philippines. Umbrella clauses have become a regular feature of international investment agreements and have been included to provide additional protection to investors by covering the contractual obligations in investment agreements between host countries and foreign investors. In particular, two recent ICSID decisions, SGS v. Pakistan and SGS v. Philippines, have brought to the forefront the question of whether the umbrella clause applies to obligations arising under otherwise independent investment contracts between the investor and the host State. In focusing on the SGS decisions, this article will give some useful guidelines to Government and Academia under currently prevailing environment of the Free Trade Agreement("FTA") in Korea.

An equity crowdfunding system of Korea has been introduced since January 25, 2016. The crowdfunding has contributed to remove the funding gap for startups in Korea. In the three years since the introduction of the system, the amount issued has been growing annually 31 percent. In 2018, the general investors who participated in equity crowdfunding, account for 93.8% of the total market size. General investors are a large part of equity crowdfunding. Investors, however, are facing the information asymmetry problems. General investors rely heavily on the investment prospectus provided by startups to obtain the information they need to determine their investment decisions. Under these circumstances, startups have the incentive to provide information that is advantageous to them, and investors are likely to be adversely affected by the investment prospectus. In this study, we collected the novel crowdfunding prospectus dataset: a total of 459 investment prospectus and conducted a morphological analysis. The analysis showed that the more positive the word, the higher the success rate of investors' subscriptions. We also compared projects that were heavily invested by general investors with projects that were heavily invested by professional investors. Then, we were able to examine that the success rates of project subscription, which were heavily invested by general investors, were higher than the projects of professional investor type. It can be interpreted as a general investor driven crowdfunding market. Based on these results, we propose three policies. First, the supervisor should be strengthened to provide more detailed information on investment risk factors in the prospectus. Second, the crowdfunding intermediary should monitor information provided by startups. Third, an investor should be asked to add a question to the investment compliance test that allows the investor to recognize the problem in the manual.
