본 연구는 우리나라 종합병원의 경영실적을 흑자와 적자로 구분하여 안정성, 성장성, 활동성, 생산성, 원가지표, 진료실적과 수익성 간의 인과관계를 규명하고자 하였다. 또한 연구결과를 바탕으로 병원의 수익성 제고와 효율적인 경영방안을 모색하는데 유용한 기초자료를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다. 조사기간은 종합병원 경영실적을 파악할 수 있는 2013년을 평가기준으로 하였으며, 총 147개의 종합병원을 조사대상으로 선정하였다. 결과을 보면, 흑자병원과 적자병원간의 재무실적과 진료실적에서는 유의한 차이 나타났으며, 흑자병원일수록 재무실적과 진료실적이 더 높은 비율을 나타냈다. 또한 병원의 수익성에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 인건비율, 관리비율, 재료비율이 중요요인으로 나타났다. 앞으로 병원 수익성을 높이기 위해서는 진료수익을 증대하는 것도 중요하지만 인건비, 관리비를 줄이기 위한 효율적인 비용절감전략이 요구된다 할 수 있다.

경제위기 이후 은행 등 금융기관의 기업 규모별 대출분포를 살펴보면 대규모 기업에서 중소규모 기업으로 그 비중이 이동하였음을 알 수 있다. 이러한 현상의 원인 중 하나로 경제위기 이후 진행된 금융구조 개혁으로 금융기관의 대출관행이 개선된 점을 들 수 있다. 경제위기 이후 회사채시장에서도 중요한 변화가 정착되고 있다. 경제위기 이전에는 기업 또는 그룹의 규모 자체가 회사채 조달에 있어 중요한 결정요인 중 하나였는데, 경제위기 이후 그러한 현상이 사라져가고 있는 것이다. 이는 경제위기 이전에는 소위 "대마불사"의 신화로 일반투자자들이 대규모 재벌의 회사채를 수익성과 관계없이 선호하였으나, 1999년 대우그룹 붕괴 및 2000~2001년 현대그룹 유동성 위기 등으로 그러한 불합리한 믿음이 깨지게 된 것과 밀접한 관련이 있다.

The study aims to examine the impact of productivity in addition to the policy of increasing the foreign investors' ownership rate on the performance of businesses which were listed on Vietnam's stock exchange market from 2010 to 2017. With the database of 3.961 observations, the study employs a statistical method - multiple regression to estimate the relationship between labor productivity, foreign ownership as well as other firm-level characteristics and firm performance. Research findings show that increasing labor productivity and increasing foreign ownership rates help increase firm performance. In addition, except for financial leverage, variables such as liquidity and firm size have positive effects on firm performance measured by Tobin's Q. These findings have theoretical contributions and practical implications for managers, investors and government in Vietnam. Managers should pay attention to improving labor productivity through employing incentive mechanisms, building a good working environment, investing in technology, etc. in order to enhance the firm performance. Investors could utilize the labor productivity and foreign ownership indicators to select stocks of good companies for investment. For Vietnamese government, relaxing the limit of foreign ownership and accelerating the divesting of State capital in State-owned enterprises could help increase the investment scale of foreign investors and resulting in positive effects on the firm performance.

Purpose - This paper aims to investigate a profit maximizing incentive of foreign traders in distributing the KOSPI 200 Futures. Such an incentive may induce unsophisticated retail traders to suffer loss from speculative trading. Since Korean government increased the entry barriers of the market to protect unsophisticated traders, the market size has been decreasing while the proportion of the contract held by foreign traders has been increasing. These on going changes make the market imperfectly competitive, where a profit maximization incentives of foreign traders are expected to grow. In this paper, we attempt to find any evidence of such behavior, thereby providing implications regarding market policy and market efficiency. Research design, data, and methodology - According to Kyle(1985), an informed trader exploits his/her monopoly power optimally in a dynamic context so that he/she makes positive profit, where he/she could conceal his/her trading utilizing noise trading as camouflage. We apply the KOSPI 200 Futures market to the Kyle's model: foreign traders who take into account the effect of his/her trading to maximize expected profits as an informed trader, retail investors as noise traders, and financial institutions as market makers. To find any evidence of monopolistic behavior, we test the variants of trading volume and price data of the KOSPI 200 Futures over the period of 2009 and 2017. Results - First, we find that the price of the KOSPI 200 Futures are more volatile than the price of underlying asset. Second, we find that monopolistic foreign trader's trading order flows are consistent with exploiting his/her monopoly power to maximize profit. Finally, we find that retail investors' trading order flows are inversely consistent with maximizing profit, that is, uninformed retail investors suffer loss continuously in speculative trading against informed traders. Conclusions - Our results show that the quantity of strategic order flows may have a large effect on the price, therefore, resulting the market inefficiency. The results also imply that, in implementing regulations, the depth of the market must be considered to maintain market liquidity, and suggesting interesting research topics regarding the market structure.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants of the capital structure of firms operating in a developing economy, Pakistan. The quantile regression method is applied on a sample of 183 non-financial companies listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange during the period of 2008-2017. Specifically, the empirical analysis focuses on changes in the coefficients of the determinants according to the leverage ratio quantiles of the examined listed firms. The findings show that the capital structure of Pakistan listed firms differs between firms in different quantiles of leverage. These differences are significant with the sign of explanatory variables changes with the level of leverage. The research result found tangibility, profitability and age to be positively related to leverage among listed firms in Pakistan. However, size, liquidity and non-debt tax shield (NDTS) are negatively related to leverage. A firm's growth and risk are found to be insignificant predictors of capital structure in Pakistan listed firms. Moreover, the study also found a significant impact of industry characteristic on leverage. The findings of this study indicate that an individual firm's finance policy needs to be responsive to the firm's characteristics and should match with the different borrowing requirements of listed firms.

본 연구는 한국수출입은행이 금융지원한 2011년~2013년의 2,753개 중소기업에 대한 기술현황 및 기술금융에 대해 분석하였다. 연평균 약 400개의 중소기업이 지재권을 보유하며 약 200개의 중소기업이 특허를 보유하는 것으로 나타난다. 제조업 중 전자부품, 컴퓨터, 영상, 음향 및 통신장비 제조업(KSIC 26), 기타 기계 및 장비 제조업(KSIC 29), 자동차 및 트레일러 제조업(KSIC 30)에 가장 높은 지재권 집중도를 보인다. 또한, 지재권 보유 기업의 경우 총자산, 매출액, 연구개발비가 비(非)보유 기업을 크게 초과하며, 유동성에서 약간의 우위를 보이고, 부채비율도 다소 낮게 나타난다. 수익률 지표에 있어서는 지재권 보유기업이 비(非)보유 기업에 비해 다소 열악하거나 비슷한 수준으로 나타난다. 신용도가 높은 기업일수록 지재권 보유수가 증가하나 그 상관관계는 0.1정도로 약하다. 신용도가 매우 취약한 기업의 지식재산권과 특허 보유율이 각각 20~30%임을 감안할 때, 이들의 기술금융지원으로 인한 리스크는 상당할 것으로 예상된다.

우리나라 선박금융은 경기순행적 투자의 성격으로 인해 해운 불황기에는 민간부문의 선박금융이 크게 위축되고 정책금융기관이 선박금융을 주도하는 패턴을 보이고 있다. 한편 정부는 「해운산업 리더국가 실현전략」을 수립('21.6.29)하여 고효율 신규선박 확보 등 지원을 통한 2030년까지의 발전목표를 설정했으며 적정 선대규모 달성을 통한 경쟁력을 확보하기 위해 선박금융 투자를 촉진하고자 한다. 하지만 해운산업에 대한 투자는 그 위험과 불확실한 시황 등으로 인하여 투자 유도가 쉽지 않은 상황으로 이에 정부 차원에서 투자자들의 공동 투자를 유도할 수 있는 세제혜택을 검토할 필요가 있다. 따라서 국내 선박금융 시장의 유동성 Gap 해소 및 해운재건 5개년 계획의 성공적 이행을 위해 한국형 선박 조세리스 제도 도입이 필요하다.

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.

Purpose - This article analyzes the impact of macroeconomic variables of the United States, China, and Korea on KOSPI and VKOSPI, in that United States and China have a great influence on Korea, having an export-driven economy. Design/methodology/approach - The influence of US, China, and Korea interest rates, industrial production index, consumer price index, US employment index, Chinese real estate index, and Korea's foreign exchange reserves on KOSPI and VKOSPI is analyzed on monthly basis from Jan 2012 to Aug 2023, using multifactor model. Findings - The KOSPI showed a positive relationship with the U.S. industrial production index and Korea's foreign exchange reserves, and a negative relationship with the U.S. employment index and Chinese real estate index. The VKOSPI showed a positive relationship with the Chinese consumer price index, and a negative relationship with the U.S. interest rates, and Korean foreign exchange reserves. Next, dividing the analysis into two periods with the Covid crisis and the analysis by country, the impact of US macroeconomic variables on KOSPI was greater than Chinese ones and the impact of Chinese macroeconomic variables on VKOSPI was greater than US ones. The result of the forward predictive failure test confirmed that it was appropriate to divide the period into two periods with economic event, the Covid Crisis. After the Covid crisis, the impact of macroeconomic variables on KOSPI and VKOSPI increased. This reflects the financial market co-movements due to governments' policy coordination and central bank liquidity supply to overcome the crisis in the pandemic situation. Research implications or Originality - This study is meaningful in that it analyzed the effects of macroeconomic variables on KOSPI and VKOSPI simultaneously. In addition, the leverage effect can also be confirmed through the relationship between macroeconomic variables and KOSPI and VKOSPI. This article examined the fundamental changes in the Korean and global financial markets following the shock of Corona by applying this research model before and after Covid crisis.

This study focuses on the factors that make the financial structure of hospitals in Korea different, and on recommended courses of action that could be very helpful to hospitals in maintaining a sound financial structure. Data used in this study were collected from 132 hospitals with complete general data of present conditions as well as financial statements. They were chosen from the 174 hospitals that passed the standardization audit undertaken by the Korean Hospital Association from 1996 to 2000 for the purpose of accrediting training hospitals. The dependent variable in this study is financial structure. It consists of liabilities as against total assets (total liabilities to total assets, short-term liabilities to total assets, long-term liabilities to total assets, short-term borrowings to total assets, long-term borrowings to total assets). The independent variables are ownership type, hospital type, location, whether or not a representative is a director of the hospital, the possibility of changing a hospital director, bed size, period of establishment, asset structure, profitability, growth, tax shields, business risk, competition. The factors that appear to have the strongest impact on the liabilities to total assets of all the hospitals sampled are ownership type, hospital type, profitability, tax shields, and business risk. It was found that not-for-profit private hospitals and for-profit private hospitals have more liabilities than public hospitals, and tertiary medical institutions have less liabilities than the secondary general hospitals. Moreover, hospitals earning more at the expense of high business risk have a distinct tendency to lower liabilities. Concerning the current ratio, it was found that factors such as ownership type, hospital type, period of establishment, asset structure, and business risk are the more significant variables. The current ratio of public hospitals is higher than that of both not-for-profit private hospitals and for-profit private hospitals, and the current ratio of tertiary medical institutions is higher than that of general hospitals. As business risk is higher in hospitals compared to other businesses, the current ratio becomes higher; this is because it is assumed that for fear of bankruptcy, hospitals lessen liabilities to total assets. On the other hand, as hospitals become older, the fixed assets to total assets become lower. It is remarkable that in hospitals, the factors affecting liabilities to total assets have an opposite regression coefficient sign against factors affecting current ratio. It brings out the same results borne out by the old financial theories and researches, in which a lot of the liabilities of hospitals are considered as the cause of worsening liquidity. Therefore, it is very important for hospitals to maintain a sound financial structure in order to survive using the rational acquisition and maintenance of capital.
