Purpose - This paper examines the effect of related party transactions on crash firm-specific stock price crash risk. Ownership of a typical Korean conglomerate is concentrated in a single family. In those entities, management and board positions are often filled by family members. Therefore, a dominant shareholder can benefit from related party transactions. In Korea, firms have to report related party transactions in financial statement footnotes. However, those are not disclosed in detail. The more related party transactions are the greater information risk. Thus, companies with related party transactions are likely to experience stock price crashes. Research design, data, and methodology - 2,598 firm-year observations are used for the main analysis. Those samples are from TS2000 database from 2009 to 2013, and the database covers KOSPI-listed firms in Korea. The proxy for related party transactions (RTP) is calculated by dividing total transactions to the related-party by total sales. A dummy variable is used as a dependent variable (CRASH) in the regression model. Logistic regression is used to explain the relationship between related party transactions and crash risk. Then, the sample was separated into two groups; tunneling firms and propping firms. The relation between related party transactions and crash risk variances with features of the transaction were investigated. Results - Using a sample of KOSPI-listed firms in TS2000 database for the period of 2009-2013, I find that stock price crash risk increases as the trade volume of related-party transactions increases. Specifically, I find that the coefficient of RPT is significantly positive, supporting the prediction. In addition, this relationship is strong and robust in tunneling firms. Conclusions - The results report that firms with related party transactions are more likely to experience stock price crashes. The results mean that related party transactions increase the possibility of future stock price crashes by enlarging information asymmetry between controlling shareholders and minority shareholders. In case of tunneling, it could be seen that related party transactions are positively associated with stock crash risk. The result implies that the characteristic of the transaction influences crash risk. This study is related to a literature that investigates the effect of related party transactions on the stock market.

This study investigates the relationship between family ownership and the stock price crash risk. It believes that this relationship would never be in direct connection. The authors design and then find that family ownership is predisposed, in the first place, to the related party transaction, then the related party transaction causes the future stock price crash. This study infers that employing the power of family ownership creates the Type I agency problem, although this is not relevant for the Type II problem. From the perspective of the hoarding theory, family ownerships produce opaque accounts by blurring financial information. The blurred information is probably hidden in the related party transactions. This study, therefore, splits these transactions into accounts receivable, other accounts receivable and other receivables. Finally, this research concludes that the family ownership affects related party transactions. These then are used as an instrument to influence the leaded related party transaction. The latest, leaded related party transactions influence the future stock price crash. This study infers that related party transactions are abusive practices, especially on the types of receivables. It implies corporate governance's revitalisation.

Purpose - This study investigates the effects of earnings management, related party transactions between chaebol affiliates on earnings management and ESG score on their profitability using return on assets (ROA). Design/Methodology/Approach - We use data including ESG (Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance) score of the Korea Corporate Governance Service(KCGS), and financial data of 10,145 firm-year observations from the Total Solution 2000 (TS 2000) and Korea Companies-Information Service (KOKOInfo), and apply the finite lagged models to investigate the long-term effects of related party transactions between chaebol affiliates of earnings management on ESG scores and corporate performance. Furthermore, to take into consideration the simultaneous mutual effects on each other of main variables, we introduce finite distributed lags of five years. Findings - First, ESG-rated firms have a higher total asset return than non-ESG-rated firms. Second, chaebol firms have a higher profitability than non-chaebol firms. Third, profit management of related party transactions between affiliates within a chaebol has a positive effect on the short-term profitability and a negative effect on the long-term profitability. Fourth, chaebol ESG firms have a lower impact on profitability due to rating up (down) than non-chaebol ESG firms. Research Implications or Originality - Based on the above results, it can be concluded that firms used related party transactions for earnings management, the effects of related party transactions change over time, and chaebol firms manipulate earnings through related party transactions and ESG scores.

우리나라 경제 발전의 핵심동력이라 할 수 있는 재벌구조의 공과는 오랫동안 사회 다양한 분야의 논쟁 대상이었다. 회계학분야에서는 소수의 지배주주에게 집중된 의사결정 구조로 인해 소액주주의 부가 지배주주에 의해 편취되는 이른바 터널링(tunneling) 현상에 주목하여 왔다. 본 연구는 기존 연구들이 터널링의 수단으로 이용될 것으로 의심되는 내부거래에 주목한 것과 같이 대규모기업집단의 내부거래에 주목하여 지배주주의 기회주의적 의사결정이 존재하는지 검증하고자 하였다. 그러나 본 연구는 기존의 연구가 내부거래 전체를 하나의 변수로 다루고 있어 그 함의를 분명하게 파악하지 못하는 편의(bias)가 있었을 것으로 판단하고, 내부거래 대상기업의 특징을 반영하여 내부거래를 세분화함으로써 기존의 연구를 확장하였다. 본 연구는 IMF와 금융위기를 거쳐 오늘날까지 이어지고 있는 재벌 혹은 대기업총수의 도덕적 해이에 대한 단서를 제공하는 한편, 이에 대한 보다 적극적인 대응이 필요함을 시사한다.

본 연구는 특수관계자간 거래가 기업가치에 미치는 영향을 패널자료회귀모형을 이용하여 분석하였다. 즉 한국기업의 특수관계자간 거래가 효율적 거래가설과 이해상충의 가설을 지지하는가를 검증하였다. 특수관계자간 거래의 유형은 장기공급계약, 자산 및 영업양수도, 대여금, 지분출자, 신용공여 등 다섯 가지를 고려하였다. 특수관계자간 거래가 기업의 효율성을 증가시키기 위한 목적으로 이루어진다면 특수관계자간 거래는 기업가치에 긍정적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 반면에 지배주주의 사익을 추구하기 위해 터널링 목적으로 이루어진다면 기업가치에 부정적인 영향을 나타내게 된다. 본 연구의 실증분석 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 다섯 가지 특수관계자간 거래 형태 중에서 대여금, 지분출자, 신용공여는 기업가치에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나서 이해상충의 가설을 지지하는 결과를 보였다. 즉 대여금이나 지분출자, 신용공여 등과 같은 특수관계자와의 재무적 거래는 지배주주의 사익추구 목적으로 이루어질 가능성이 높은 것으로 이해되었다. 둘째, 장기공급계약과 자산 및 영업양수도 형태의 특수관계자간 거래는 기업가치와 유의한 영향관계를 확인할 수 없었다. 따라서 장기공급계약이나 자산 및 영업양수도 형태의 특수관계자간 거래는 효율적 거래 목적으로 이루어지는 것인지 혹은 지배주주의 사익추구 목적으로 이루어지는 것인지 명확하지 않았다.

The business process of global third party logistics company is defined as a network of logistics activities which involves the products that are manufactured in the developing countries, such as Vietnam, China and so on, and delivered to North or South American countries via intermediate stopover sites. The third party logistics company usually uses proprietary logistics information system to support the related logistics activities. However, each consignor sometimes may require different business process based on the customer type or characteristics of their products. Therefore, the third party logistics company need to modify their business process to reflect customer's requirements, resulting in the modification of logistic information systems and additional costs. Therefore, a flexible mechanism is required to efficiently support the various types of requirements by the owners of the products. In this paper, first, we figured out various business rules related to third party global logistics activities. Second, we grouped the identified business rules into business processes, objects, relations, dependency, policy, representations, execution, and resources and further into precondition, postcondition, and invariant based on checking point in time. Furthermore, the categorized rules are classified into inter-activity and intra-activity rules based on the execution range. Third, we proposed a rule syntax to describe the defined rules into scripts which are understood by user and information system together. When each activity is executed, the rule manager checks whether there are rules related with the activity execution. Finally, we developed a prototype rule management system to show the feasibility of our proposed methodology and to validate it with an example.

Over the years, more password-based authentication key agreement schemes using chaotic maps were susceptible to attack by off-line password guess attack. This work approaches this problem by a new method--new theorem of chaotic maps: $T_{a+b}(X)+T_{a-b}(X)=2T_a(X)T_b(X)$,(a>b). In fact, this method can be used to design two-party, three-party, even in N-party intelligently. For the sake of brevity and readability, only a two-party instance: a novel Two-party Password-Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol is proposed for resisting password guess attack in this work. Compared with the related literatures recently, our proposed scheme can be not only own high efficiency and unique functionality, but is also robust to various attacks and achieves perfect forward secrecy. For capturing improved ratio of security and efficiency intuitively, the paper firstly proposes a new parameter called security/efficiency ratio(S/E Ratio). The higher the value of the S/E Ratio, the better it is. Finally, we give the security proof and the efficiency analysis of our proposed scheme.
