The purpose of this paper is an attempt to analyze the dynamic relationship between KSE and KOSDAQ, two competing markets in Korean stock market, in the viewpoint of competition. Lotka-Volterra model, one of well-known competitive diffusion model, is adopted to represent the competitive situations of Korean stock market and it is estimated using daily empirical index data of KSE and KOSDAQ during 1997~2001. The results show that there existed a predator-prey relationship between two markets in which KSE acted as a predator right after the emergence of KOSDAQ. This interaction was altered to a symbiotic relationship and finally to the pure competition relationship. We also perform an equilibrium analysis of the estimated Lotka-Volterra equations and, as a result, it is found that there is a market index equilibrium point that would be stable in the latest relationship.

We aim to confirm empirically that a corporate's R&D expenditure effect positively on its value. As a result of the regression analysis on financial statements of KSE and KOSDAQ enterprises, the sum of R&D expenditure effects positively on corporate value. Moreover, we have the result that R&D expenditure appropriated as cost has more effect on corporate value than the expenditure appropriated as asset.

This study examined whether there is a difference in cost asymmetry between a corporate listed on KOSDAQ and a corporate listed on KOSPI, and whether there is a difference in cost asymmetry depending on the size of the listed corporate. In the previous study, cost asymmetry was examined only for listed corporate, but the difference in size between KOSDAQ-listed corporate and KOSPI-listed corporate was not examined. However, according to many studies, since the characteristics of corporate and firm risks are different between corporate listed on KOSPI and corporate listed on KOSDAQ, or even for listed corporate, such an impact may affect the decision-making of internal resource allocation. The analysis was conducted that there would be a difference in the impact. For this study, the results of analyzing the KOSPI and KOSDAQ markets from 2011 to 2019 using the cost behavior model of Anderson et al. (2003), There was a difference in cost behavior in the KOSPI and KOSDAQ markets. Overall, as in previous studies, Cost Stickiness was appeared. but in the case of the KOSPI market, Cost Stickiness was mitigated.It was found that corporate with large corporate size made the decision to dispose of idle resources more clearly when sales decreased. In addition, it was observed that the higher the foreign investor's ownership ratio, the KOSPI market, and the larger the corporate size, the more clearly the Stickiness of cost was mitigated. This study expands research on cost asymmetry and reveals that there is a difference between the KOSPI market and the KOSDAQ market, and between the size of the corporate, and has a differentiation from previous studies.

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of the ownership structure of unlisted firms on KOSDAQ listing. There are few studies analyzing the characteristics of listing success based on ownership structure. For startup executives, there is not enough data to refer to the ownership structure that can increase the possibility of listing. This paper examines the effects of ownership structure on IPO success through comparison between listed successful and failed companies among the companies in application for KOSDAQ listing eligibility review. The major findings are as follows; (1) Venture capital investment and shareholding have a statistically positive effect on the success of KOSDAQ listing. This results indicate that the venture capital's investment alleviate the problem of information asymmetry, and it is a valid signal for market participants. The result means the role of venture capital seems to be important when companies are listed on the KOSDAQ. (2) The largest shareholder's stake has an inverted-U shape relationship with listing success. In other words, the ownership concentration mitigates moral hazard problem, which leads to listing success. However, if the ownership concentration exceeds a certain level, the chances of success in listing will decrease due to concerns over the pursuit of private interests. The result suggests that the largest shareholder's stake reduce agency problem. This study academically contributes to the existing literature by demonstrating the ownership structure affects IPOs, and explaining the results based on agent theory and signal theory. Our results provide practical implications for companies preparing for an IPO on the KOSDAQ.

The goal of this study is to confirm the extent of realization of economic democracy between the subsidiary ICT companies of conglomerates and the KOSDAQ listed ICT companies with focus on growth and profitability. As the results of analysis, the following were verified. First, there were differences in all aspects of the subsidiary ICT companies of conglomerates and the KOSDAQ listed small and medium ICT companies, including growth and profitability. Second, the pattern of economic democracy between two groups displayed relatively unrealized economic democracy structure. Third, It was found that KOSDAQ listed small and medium ICT companies were relatively much more difficult situations than the subsidiary ICT companies of conglomerates.

This study examines the ratio of R&D expenses in intangible assets for pharmaceutical companies, and determines whether these expenses affect the firm value among companies listed on the KOSDAQ. The research subjects included annual R&D expenses of 39 pharmaceutical companies listed on the KOSDAQ between 2011 and 2017. The survey was achieved via "Panel Data Model" with "Tobin Q" as an independent variable, and the ratio of R&D expenses in intangible as a dependent variable. Results of the study conclude that the ratio of R&D expenses in intangible assets of KOSDAQ pharmaceutical companies negatively influence the Tobin Q (Enterprise Value). A large proportion of intangible assets indicates increased R & D investment, and the operating profit is likely to be low due to the high debt ratio, thereby negatively impacting the enterprise value. This study further investigates whether the existing researches are based on researches that identify the total value of R & D expenditure. Results determine a significant relationship between enterprise value and R & D expenditure.

The results of the research in M&A firms in the KOSDAQ market are as follows. First, the effect of the M&A disclosure at the time of disclosure was that the positive (+) cumulative abnormal return (CAR) can be interpreted as an increase in the value of the firm; however, in the long run, firms which used the KOSDAQ index and the control firm, which did not use the index were found to have conflicting results. Second, the findings show that the rise in value of general firms resulting from a M&A were higher that those of venture firms. Third, in testing the performance extrapolation hypothesis, it was shown that the performance of "value" firms (firms with a high B/M ratio but poor performance in the past) was better after a M&A than those of the "glamour" firms and that the performance extrapolation hypothesis was substantiated. Fourth, it can be construed that a size effect in a merger exists. The CAR of the small firms surpasses those of large firms. Fifth, in verifying operating performance, most variables showed a positive (+) value at the time of M&A but showed a negative (-) value after a M&A. These results show that because on the Korean KOSDAQ market, M&A are approached from a financial rather than an economic aspect, it can be inferred that it lowers the firms value.

Purpose - This study aimed to identify the effects of ownership structures on agency costs in internationally diversified firms listed on the KOSDAQ market. Design/methodology/approach - A total of 5,824 samples were finally selected and empirically analyzed for a total of nine years from 2011 to 2019, during which the International Accounting Standards had been mandatory for firms listed on the KOSDAQ market. Findings - The results of this study showed that the effects of ownership structures on the ratio of asset turnover are positive for the major share and foreign equity ratios of international diversified firms. Moreover, by selecting the ratio of entertainment expenses as a proxy for agency expenses, this study confirmed that the effects of the ownership structure of an international diversified entity on entertainment expenditure were determined to show a significantly negative relation to entertainment expenditure, thus indicating that the higher the ratio of major shareholders, the more appropriately control the expenditure of entertainment expenses through arbitrary private deviations of the management.Furthermore, considering the effect of the ownership structure on the expenditure of sales and administrative expenses as a proxy variable for agency costs, this study verified that the majority share ratio of international diversified firms was negative to the expenditure of sales and administrative expenses, confirming that the higher the share of major shareholders, the lower the selling and administrative costs, but insignificant.Finally, as a result of determining whether the ownership structure of an international diversified firm affects the holding of free cash, the majority share of this firm shows a significantly negative relation to the ratio of the holding of surplus cash, indicating that the higher the proportion of major shareholders, the more appropriately control the holding of the entity's free cash through arbitrary private deviance by the manager. Research implications or Originality - Major shareholders of an internationally diversified firm listed on the KOSDAQ market play a positive role in the firm's performance by properly controlling agency costs that may be incurred by the management.
