  • 평균 9% 성장이라는 외적인 성과와 달리 소득 격차, 빈부 격차 및 지역 격차 등의 사회적인 문제는 중국이 지금까지 이어온 성장세를 지속할 수 없을 것이라는 부정적 견해의 주요 원인이 되었다. 이러한 이유로 중국 정부는 CSR에 대한 제도적인 규정이 기업의 지속가능한 발전을 위한 선택적 사항이 아닌 필수적인 사항임을 인식하기 시작하였다. 특히 11.5규획이 시작되고 3차 개정 "회사법"이 시행된 2006년은 중국의 CSR 원년이라고 할 수 있다. 11.5규획에서 CSR을 처음 언급하며 사회적 관심을 불러일으켰다면, 개정 회사법에서는 사회적 책임이라는 단어를 처음으로 법률 조항에 삽입시켰다. 그리고 12.5규획에서는 '지속가능한 발전'을 핵심목표로 설정하고 본격적으로 CSR에 대한 구체적인 방안을 기업정책에 반영하고 있다. 은행의 사회적 책임은 은행고유의 산업적 특징으로 인하여 일반기업보다 더 구체적이고 강제적인 규정을 마련하고 있다. 우리나라 은행이 중국시장에 성공적으로 진출하고 안정화하기 위해서는 중국정부의 거시정책을 반영하고 적절한 대응방안을 마련하는 것이 중요할 것이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 중국정부의 중요 거시정책 중 하나인 CSR을 중심으로 논의를 전개하였다. 특히 상업은행의 사회적 책임이 은행법 체계에 어떻게 반영되어 있으며 문제점이 무엇인지, 그리고 향후 상업은행의 사회적 책임과 관련한 입법 방향에 대하여 연구하여 전략적 시사점을 제공하고자 하였다.

  • 중국 중소형 기업들에게 상업은행을 통한 자금 조달은 매우 중요한 자금 조달의 원천이 되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 기업들의 신용보증 부족으로 중국 상업은행은 중소형 기업들에 대한 자금 공여를 꺼리고 있는 실정이며 이러한 현실은 이들 기업의 무역활동에 부정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 중국 중소형 기업들에 대한 신용 보증기관의 위험에 관해 VAR 모델을 적용하여 중국 보증기관의 위험에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하고 자 한다. 분석 결과, 기업 규모는 그다지 통계적으로 유의한 요인이 되지 못하였으나 기업의 고정자산 비율 등 담보 관련 정보는 신용보증기관의 VAR를 감소시키는 요인으로 분석되었다. 또한 기업 관련 제품의 독창성 여부 및 중소형 중국기업의 운영위험은 신용보증기관의 VAR와 양의 관계를 보여주고 있다고 분석되었다.

  • The ISP 98 is developed by the American Institute of International Banking Law & Practice in 1998. The ISP98 are also published as ICC Publication No. 590. A detailed commentary on the rules("The Official Commentary on the International Standby Practice") has been written by Professor James E. Byrnes. Presently there is no compelling reason to revise the rules themselves even if ten years is passed since the issuance of ISP98. Insteadthe American Institute of International Banking Law & Practice will provide Model Forms in the early 2009. Special features of the ISP 98 are as the following. Firstly, the ISP 98 is copyrighted by the Institute of International Banking Law and Practice, Inc., and published by the International Chamber of Commerce. Secondly, the ISP 98 differs from UCP in style and approach because it must receive acceptance not only from bankers and merchants, but also from a broader range of those actively involved in standby law and practice corporate treasurees and credit manager, rating agencies, government agencies and regulators, and indenture trustees as well as their counsel. Because standbys are often intended to be available in the event of disputes or applicant insovency, their texts are subject to a degree of scrutiny not encountered in the commercial letter of credit context. Thirdly, the ISP 98 supplement the UCP if the UCP dose not have the relative rule. Lastly, the ISP 98 has the official commentary. In addition, several provision of the ISP 98 would surprise the commercial parties and/or are rather peculiar, while some of them display a certain bias in favor of the banks.

  • 최근 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅에 대한 연구가 활발해지면서 무선 센서 네트워크는 설치의 용이함과 저렴한 구축비용으로 다양한 분야에 널리 사용되고 있다. 현재 상용화 되어 있는 산간 지역에서 사용가능한 균열 예측 시스템은 구축 방법이나 비용면에서 많은 부담이 되고 있다. 이에 대한 대안으로 저비용의 상용화된 무선 센서 네트워크를 이용한 사면 균열 예측 시스템을 제안한다. 제안 시스템은 센서 노드를 절벽이나 사면, 바위, 둑 등에 부착하기 쉽고 지형물의 원형 손상을 최소화 할 뿐만 아니라 설치 및 유지 보수비용이 기존의 시스템에 비하여 약 50% 정도에 불과한 장점을 갖는다.

  • A non-documentary conditions is a condition contained in the credit without reference to the presented document in compliance therewith, thereby causing many problems to all parties involved in letter of credit transactions. The purpose of this study is to examine the regulations on the non-documentary conditions under Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits: UCP, International Standby Practices: ISP98, United Nations Convention on Independent Guarantee and Stand-by Letters of Credit: CIGSLC and Uniform Commercial Code: UCC and also the opinions on the effect of non-documentary conditions through the analysis of several cases on the non-documentary conditions. The result of this study can be summarized as follows: First, UCP, ISP98, CIGSLC and UCC stipulate that banks will deem non-documentary conditions as not stated and will disregard them. Second, courts used to permit the effect of non-documentary conditions. Finally, all parties should not attempt to put in any non-documentary conditions in order to prevent disputes on the effect of non-documentary conditions.

  • The study empirically examines the effects of loan portfolio diversification on bank risk and return in the nascent banking market of Vietnam. Loan portfolio diversification is captured through the Hirschman-Herfindahl index and the Shannon Entropy with sectoral exposures. We access each bank's financial reports to collect the required data, especially the breakdown of sectoral loan portfolios, thus constituting a unique dataset. To compute bank return, we use the traditional accounting indicators, including return-on-assets, return-on-equity, and net-interest margin. For bank risk, we utilize the loan-loss provisions and non-performing loans relative to gross customer loans. Using a sample of 30 commercial banks over the period from 2008 to 2019 and the system generalized method of moments estimator for the dynamic panel, we indicate the downsides of portfolio diversification. Concretely, we observe that all diversification measures exhibit significantly negative signs in all regressions across different bank return proxies. At the same time, the estimates display the significant and positive impact of diversification on the non-performing loan ratio. Hence, sectoral loan portfolio diversification significantly hampers bank performance in both aspects of lower return and higher credit risk. The results are robust across a rich set of bank performance and portfolio diversification measures.

  • In 21st Century business world, services are carried out in multifaceted, competitive and rationality manner that are characterized by evolving many factors, which are often unpredictable. On-the-go banking is a product in financial sector. However, it faces serious pitfalls being it riskiness. Bank customers compete for time-saving options. On contrary, PCBs compete for marginalizing its operating costs for enhancing its revenues. On strategic tactics, PCBs targets city customers in multi-facets including offering incentives for enhanced usages of on-the-go banking. Influencing customer's intention, attitude and behavior in banking, PCBs also offers incentive under market system along with often informational asymmetry. However, it causes exploitation. In most cases customers don't read terms & conditions of services. They don't save contract-copy. These weaknesses cause abuses. Customer faces hidden charges, extra fees, account hacked. Addressing the issue, Voluntary Insurance Option is proposed where PCBs will introduce it as a product of bank-services. Transferring risk away from customer will benefit both PCBs and bank-customers. This product can attract new customers who were on the brink using digital banking but just felt it was too risky. This model can facilitate the parties involved for increasing usage of on-the-go banking-services while customers can maintain optimal utility of usages.

  • This study seeks to examine the main factors, external and internal to the bank, that enhance bank lending. Bank lending is one of the connecting bridges in sustaining society. Internal factors consist of ROA, DPK, and CAR. External factors are economic growth and interest rate of Bank Indonesia. The population of this research consists of traditional commercial banks listed on the IDX over the 2014-2017 period. Samples were chosen by purposive sampling method. This study uses secondary data with 56 samples; data analysis uses multiple linear regression. The findings of the study show that internal factors have a greater impact on increasing bank lending than external factors. The main variable among internal factors that influences increase in bank lending is ROA. DPK is the internal factor with the smallest impact on increasing bank lending. The implication of the study is that determining the bank lending should take more account of CAR, DPK, ROA, BI interest rates, and economic growth in making decisions about the amount of lending. These variables can only have a slight effect on increasing lending, though. Besides, internal factors such as NPL, LDR or non-economic factors also need to be considered in channeling bank credit.

  • This study aims to investigate the impact of Human Resource Management Practices (HRMP) on improving Employee Performance (EP). The study is accomplished by hypothesizing the impact of HRMP on EP, additionally, this impact is theorized to be mediated through job satisfaction. Employee engagement is also taken into account because of the potential moderating effect it has within the theorized model. Data was collected from 480 questionnaires which were distributed among commercial banks' workers in Jordan and were analyzed using structural equation modeling techniques (SEM), path analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Analysis of a moment structures (AMOS) software version 24 was applied to complete our analysis. The results show that HRMP had a positive impact on EP, as well as job satisfaction and its components (job stability and job enrichment). The mediating role of job satisfaction (enrichment and stability) was discovered. Finally, employee engagement emerged as a moderating variable linking HRMP and EP. The findings of this study show the importance of the role played by job satisfaction and employee engagement in achieving human resources performance goals. Future analysis is recommended to gain deeper insight into the relationship between HRMP, job satisfaction, worker training, and performance appraisal.

  • The object of this article is to assess the factors affecting the behavioral intention of young retail customers to use digital banking services in Vietnam. In this article, multivariate data analysis techniques including Cronbach's Alpha, Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), Structure equation model (SEM), and Bootstrapping are used to analyze the data collected from 525 young respondents under the age of 35 who are using or having opportunities to experience digital banking services. The people taking part in the survey were mainly University students with incomes of most of them under VND 5 million. The result from the analysis illustrates that (1) perceived ease of use positively affects intention to use, (2) social influence positively impacts intention to use, and (3) customer support has a positive impact on the intention of young people to use digital banking services. While technology self-efficacy, convenience, and perceived security were found to have an impact on intention to use services in former studies, the influences of these factors on intention to use digital banking services are found insignificant in this research. From these results, the author provides implications for commercial banks to increase the intention to use digital banking of young people in Vietnam.
