Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the measurement results of the financial comprehension test conducted ten times in order to study the financial comprehension. Research design, data, and methodology: In this study, correct answer rates in the Economics and Finance Literacy Certification Test were analyzed across ten rounds of tests taken by 6,662 high school students in Korea. Result: The analysis revealed that Korean high school students' level of financial literacy generally increased as the grade level increased, and the correct answer rates of students at autonomous high schools and special-purpose high schools were statistically different from those of students at general academic high schools and specialized high schools. Conclusion: We can therefore infer that students at specialized high schools face limitations in tackling financial problems due to their lack of proficiency in interpretation and calculation of data necessary for real life financial decision-making. In contrast, students at general academic high schools, special-purpose high schools, and autonomous high schools who do not learn finance as a part of their official curriculum at school were lacking in basic financial knowledge as well as knowledge about the financial system compared to students at specialized high schools, highlighting the need for a measure to address the deficiency.

The stratified multistage sampling technique was utilized to select the respondents, while the interview questionnaires were used to collect the data. By using SmartPLS 3.0, the data analysis included descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling (SEM). The result revealed that the one with the highest debt was Gen Y compared to Gen B and Gen X. Considering financial literacy, financial attitude, and financial capacity across generations, it was found that Gen Y had the highest average score in financial literacy and financial capacity, higher than that of Gen X and Gen B.

However, for a company to amass knowledge is very difficult due to limited time and poor understandings from employees. Especially, it becomes harder in public organization where simulating financial motif among members is constrained. In this respect, KORAIL, one of typical and leading public organizations in Korea, shows very unique example in which KORAIL succeeds in catalyzing the knowledge circulation process among members, string the resulted working knowledge, and then sharing it to improve working performance at an individual level as well as team level. This KORAIL case will help understand how important the knowledge circulation speed is to improving the corporate performance.

본 연구는 기업의 내부역량(Internal Capability)과 외부지식(External knowledge)을 통해 기업의 동태적 역량을 측정할 수 있으며, 동태적 역량이라는 틀에서 보면 기업의 행위를 진화적 관점의 적합도(Fitness)와 렌트(Rent)로 설명할 수 있다는 점에서 착안하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 동태적 역량을 기반으로 나노기술 기업의 유형분류 및 분석 모델을 제시하고자함이며, 이를 위해 나노기술 분야와 관련된 제품생산 활동을 하고 있는 국내 359개 기업에 대한 설문조사를 바탕으로 기업의 유형을 어떻게 분류하고, 성과를 측정하게 되는지를 실증적으로 분석하고 있다. 기업의 내부역량(Internal Capability)과 외부지식(External knowledge)이 기업의 성과에 영향을 주는가를 분석하였다. 또한 실증분석 결과를 바탕으로 내부역량과 외부지식을 나타내는 4개 변수들을 주성분 분석(Principal Component Analysis)하여 2개의 새로운 변수들을 도출하였다. 내부역량과 외부지식의 상대적 정도를 기준으로 4개의 기업군을 분류하고, 유형별 재무적 성과를 비교한 결과 내부역량과 외부지식이 높은 기업이 낮은 기업보다 평균적으로 재무적 성과가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 기술수준 분석의 결과도 내부역량과 외부지식 수준이 높은 기업이 상대적으로 높은 기술수준을 보였다. 그러나 4가지 유형의 재무적 성과차이를 분석한 결과는 기술적 적합도와 진화적 적합도의 상호작용에 의해 재무적 성과가 결정될 수 있음을 보여주고 있다.

Over the past decades, Bangladesh has fought poverty via labor-intensive industry and inclusive financing. The techniques assist underprivileged women in achieving self-sufficiency and encourage them to pursue independent endeavors. However, the majority of female entrepreneurs focused on four key company types: parlor, boutique, clothes, and fashion, all of which have limited access to financing. It was feared that their shortage of finance was hindering the growth of their company. The study's goal is to assess the effects of financial availability and knowledge on women's entrepreneurship development in Bangladesh via the lens of transformational leadership practices. A sample of 580 SMEs was considered for data collection with a structured questionnaire: a five-point Likert scale for getting responses from SMEs. The model coefficients with structural equation modeling revealed that financial accessibility plays a positive and statistically significant role in women's entrepreneurship development. Moreover, knowledge level established positive interlinkage with women's entrepreneurship development. Transformational leadership, which plays a mediating role in leadership practices, has been linked to the development of women's entrepreneurship indirectly and positively. As a result, support for knowledge creation and external financing must evolve and be made available to ensure women's sustainable development through entrepreneurial activities.
