There is a growing need for technology transactions between the technology providers, who develop technologies, and the technology consumers, who purchase and commercialize technologies, to be smooth, when technologies, as intangible assets, are traded as items that can be purchased and sold. In response to these challenges, this study examines new approaches to assessing the fair market value of technologies. Because corporations are the main force behind technology development and commercialization in the existing business environment, applying one valuation method to technology assets is viable; however, as the subjects of technology development and technology commercialization are separate, the need for price negotiations between the subjects of technology transaction has grown. Moreover, as the investigations into and the application of transaction prices have been performed separately by technology providers, technology consumers, and technology assessment financial institutions, the research on technology valuation methods has shown that there are differences in perceived transaction prices between the subjects involved. This research presents a new method, appropriate to technology transactions; unlike existing methods, it grants option values to the technology provider and newly defined key variables to the technology consumer.

The financial technology sector is now growing rapidly all over the world, and it has improved the banking system efficiency and customer experience. This research study attempts explicitly to explore the consumer acceptance attitude of FinTech and its products in Pakistan. Technology Acceptance Model was used to assess the entire variable associated with the consumer attitude to adopt new technology. Based on a survey conducted from Pakistan data and by employing the multiple regression analysis, this study proves that the risk involved in FinTech products and services results in less usage of financial technology. The findings of the study also show that the risk should be reduced if banks and other institutes that are involved in financial transactions online must provide security. Moreover, customers are not willing to pay an extra amount for using financial technology. It argues that usefulness helps to change the attitude of banking customers to use financial technology. The attitudes of the customers have a positive relationship with the adoption of financial technology. These results also help guide financial institutions to enhance the adoption of FinTech products. User attitudes must be changed by providing users with more security, less risky applications, and cost-effective products.

프로젝트 파이낸싱(Project Financing, 이하PF)은 자금조달을 위한 금융기법 중 하나로 사업주의 신용도나 다른 담보 대신 프로젝트의 수익성에 기초하여 투자자로부터 자금을 제공 받는다. 하지만 국내에서 이루어지는 PF의 경우, 자금 조달의 주체인 금융기관은 사업 타당성 검증체계가 부족하여 프로젝트의 사업성을 평가하기보다 건설사에게 신용보강을 요구하며, 이에 따라 사업주의 대출채권에 건설사가 연대보증 또는 채무인수약정을 하고 있는 실정이다. 이로 인해 건설사는 PF 우발채무라는 간접적인 채무가 발생하게 되고, 이는 재무제표에 포함되지 않으나 2009년 PF 우발채무 기재의 공시기준 제정됨에 따라 주요 관리 항목이라 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 PF 우발채무가 기업의 재무상태에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 신용등급 및 도급순위 별로 건설사를 분류하여 PF 우발채무가 기업의 주요 재무비율인 유동성, 안정성, 수익성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

Technology competitiveness evaluates environmental and engineered technology and process at both the scientific and market levels. There are increasing concerns to measure the effects of the technology variables on the potential market feasibility levels. However, there are very little empirical analysis studies on that issue. This study investigates the impacts of technology variables on the levels of market feasibility based on 230 data obtained from Korea Technology Transfer Center. As various statistical analysis, the canonical discriminant model, logit discriminant model and classification model were used and their results were compared. This study results showed that major technology variables had very significant relations to discriminate high and low categories of market feasibility. Finally, this study will help building management strategies to level up the potential market performance and also help financial Institutions to decide funds needed for small-sized technology firms.

The loss of biodiversity poses a significant threat not only to business sustainability and investment risk but also to societal well-being. Nature serves as a crucial driver for long-term business viability and economic prosperity. The Task Force on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), established in September 2023, mandates that companies assess and disclose their impacts on nature. Despite this, many businesses lack a full understanding of their reliance on and impact upon natural capital and ecosystem services, leading to insufficient disclosures. This study evaluates the applicability of TNFD's assessment methodologies and indicators within a domestic context, highlighting the condition of nature and ecosystem services, and exploring potential synergies with national biodiversity policies. Our analysis suggests that TNFD necessitates a unique approach to the spatial and temporal data and methodologies traditionally employed in environmental impact assessments. This includes assessing the reciprocal influences of corporate activities on natural capital and ecosystem services via the LEAP framework. Moreover, in industries where the choice of specific indicators depends on unique sectoral traits, developing a standardized strategy for data and assessment indicators-adapted to local conditions-is crucial due to the variability in the availability of assessment tools and data. The proactive engagement of the private sector in ecosystem restoration projects is particularly promising for contributing towards national biodiversity objectives. Although TNFD is in its nascent phase, its global adoption by numerous companies signifies its potential impact. Successful implementation of TNFD is anticipated to deepen businesses' and financial institutions' understanding of natural capital and ecosystem services, thereby reinforcing their commitment to sustainable development.

"Plant genetic resources for food and agriculture" means any genetic material of plant origin of actual or potential value for food and agriculture. "Genetic material" means any material of plant origin, including reproductive and vegetative propagating material, containing functional units of heredity. (Internal Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, ITPGRFA). The "Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization (ABS) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (shortly Nagoya Protocol)" is a supplementary agreement to the Convention on Biological Diversity. It provides a transparent legal framework for the effective implementation of one of the three objectives of the CBD: the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of the utilization of genetic resources. The Nagoya Protocol on ABS was adopted on 29 October 2010 in Nagoya, Japan and entered into force on 12 October 2014, 90 days after the deposit of the fiftieth instrument of ratification. Its objective is the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from the utilization of genetic resources, thereby contributing to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. The Nagoya Protocol will create greater legal certainty and transparency for both providers and users of genetic resources by; (a) Establishing more predictable conditions for access to genetic resources and (b) Helping to ensure benefit-sharing when genetic resources leave the country providing the genetic resources. By helping to ensure benefit-sharing, the Nagoya Protocol creates incentives to conserve and sustainably use genetic resources, and therefore enhances the contribution of biodiversity to development and human well-being. The Nagoya Protocol's success will require effective implementation at the domestic level. A range of tools and mechanisms provided by the Nagoya Protocol will assist contracting Parties including; (a) Establishing national focal points (NFPs) and competent national authorities (CNAs) to serve as contact points for information, grant access or cooperate on issues of compliance, (b) An Access and Benefit-sharing Clearing-House to share information, such as domestic regulatory ABS requirements or information on NFPs and CNAs, (c) Capacity-building to support key aspects of implementation. Based on a country's self-assessment of national needs and priorities, this can include capacity to develop domestic ABS legislation to implement the Nagoya Protocol, to negotiate MAT and to develop in-country research capability and institutions, (d) Awareness-raising, (e) Technology Transfer, (f) Targeted financial support for capacity-building and development initiatives through the Nagoya Protocol's financial mechanism, the Global Environment Facility (GEF) (Nagoya Protocol). The Rural Development Administration (RDA) leading to conduct management agricultural genetic resources following the 'ACT ON THE PRESERVATION, MANAGEMENT AND USE OF AGRO-FISHERY BIO-RESOURCES' established on 2007. According to $2^{nd}$ clause of Article 14 (Designation, Operation, etc. of Agencies Responsible for Agro-Fishery Bioresources) of the act, the duties endowed are, (a) Matters concerning securing, preservation, management, and use of agro-fishery bioresources; (b) Establishment of an integrated information system for agro-fishery bioresources; (c) Matters concerning medium and long-term preservation of, and research on, agro-fishery bioresources; (d) Matters concerning international cooperation for agro-fishery bioresources and other relevant matters. As the result the RDA manage about 246,000 accessions of plant genetic resources under the national management system at the end of 2016.

본 연구의 목적은 유럽연합에서 개발한 세계 대학 평가시스템 '유-멀티랭크(U-Multirank)'를 통해 대학의 실제 경쟁력과 질적 수준을 재검토해야 할 필요성 그리고 세계 대학 순위평가 시스템이라는 개념을 재정립해야 필요성을 역설하는 데 있다. 지금까지 널리 활용되고 있는 THE나 ARWU와 같은 세계 대학 순위평가 시스템은 연구중심 종합대학에 초점을 맞추어 정량화된 평가 방식을 취해왔다. 그러나 이러한 평가 방식은 세계 고등교육 분야에서 대학과 전공 간의 서열화를 조장하는 동시에 소규모 지방대학이나 유사 고등교육기관을 소외시키는 결과를 낳았다. 더구나 대학 순위평가제의 본래 취지가 잠재적 대학 편 입학자들에게 실질적이고 포괄적인 정보를 제공함으로써 그들 개개인의 교육 이상과 요구에 부합하는 고등교육기관을 선택할 수 있도록 돕는데 있다는 점을 도외시한채, 기존의 정량화된 평가 방식과 순위발표는 결코 도표 위의 수치로 환원될 수 없는 복잡다양한 교육현실을 축소시키는 문제마저 초래하였다. 유럽연합 교육위원회는 세계 대학 평가시스템의 이러한 결함을 보완하고 유럽 사회에 필요한 고등인재를 길러내기 위해 2009년부터 2011년까지 타당성 조사와 파일럿 테스트를 거쳐 '유-멀티랭크'라는 새로운 세계 대학 평가시스템을 개발하였다. THE나 ARWU 등과 차별화되는 유-멀티랭크의 특징은 사용자 중심성, 다차원성, 개별성이라는 원칙 아래 대학에 관한 질적 평가 방식을 취한다는 데 있다. 이 시스템은 모바일 운영체계를 기반으로 설계되어 디지털 글로벌 시대에 최적화된 세계 대학 평가시스템의 본보기를 제시할 뿐 아니라, 사용자의 접근성과 참여폭을 확장시킴으로써 시스템 자체의 무한한 자기검증과 진화 가능성까지 열어놓고 있다. 이는 대학 평가시스템의 투명성 확보와 관련해 대단히 중요한 장점이다. 무엇보다 유-멀티랭크의 사용자 중심 모바일 운영체계는 미국대학 중심의 기존 세계 대학리그에 국내 외의 다양한 대학들을 노출시킴으로써 공정한 질적 경쟁의 장을 마련해준다는 점에서 우리 대학들의 글로벌 경쟁력 강화를 위해서도 희망을 걸만한 대안이라 생각된다. 유-멀티랭크를 통한 세계 대학 평가시스템의 재개념화 가능성을 타진하기 위해 본 연구는 Edgar Morin의 복잡성 사고 이론과 Karl Popper의 과학철학에 기댄 인식론적 접근을 시도하고 있다.
