This study focuses on wage subsidy to employers, labor demand-side wage subsidy for which one can think of two types -- a tax credit(a flat wage subsidy) and a social insurance premium exemption(a proportional wage subsidy).For job creation, Korean government reintroduced a tax credit to small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs) which have increased their employment level in 2010. But many experts has continuously insisted that it should be replaced with a social insurance premium exemption arguing only a few SMEs benefit from the tax credit as most of them are actually not paying any corporate or general income tax bills. However, as the insurance premium exemption accompanies an increase in the amount of budget with the coverage widen, one cannot confirm its cost effectiveness over the tax credit.This paper aims to provide a theoretical analysis to derive some formal conditions under which a social insurance premium exemption creates more jobs than a tax credit does given a budget constraint. We show that the former’s dominance over the latter depends on whether there exists a dead zone of social insurance or not. If there does not exist a dead zone, a social insurance premium exemption is more desirable in many cases, whereas one cannot guarantees its dominance over a tax credit if there exists a dead zone. Therefore in order to realize its dominance, the government should minimize a dead zone so that most SMEs effectively benefit from the insurance premium exemption. In addition, applying discriminative exemption rates which reflect each firm’s job conditions such as wage level and labor demand/supply sensitivity, the government try to enhance job creation effect.","PeriodicalId":32627,"journal":{"name":"KDI Journal of Economic Policy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68934684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this, we admit the anchor and adjustment mechanism of investors which partly explains the momentum in the asset prices. We also claim the prospect theory based on the risk aversions may simultaneously work with the anchor and adjustment effect, whenever the lagged asset return was positive and investors accrued the gain. To identify these effects empirically in a threshold autoregressive model, we suppose the risk aversions inducing the volatility effect is related with the past volatility of asset returns. In application of suggested method to Korean stock and real estate markets, we found these effect exist as expected. 본고에서는 Tversky and Kahneman (1974)의 기준점 효과와 Kahneman and Tversky(1979)의 전망이론으로 해석이 가 능한 현상이 우리나라 자산시장에 동시에 나타나는지를 주가 및 부동산 가격을 대 상으로 검증하였다. 전망이론의 경우 위험 회피 성향 투자자가 가격 상승 시 매각을 선호하는 것으로 예측하는데, 본고는 이런 성향이 자산가격 수익의 변동성이 증가하 는 경우 더 강화되는 것으로 보았다. 1990년대 이후 우리나라 자료를 바탕 으로 실증분석한 결과, 과거 수익률이 양 (+)인 경우, 주가수익률은 과거 20 또는 30 영업일 자료(window)를 이용하여 산 출한 변동성에, 아파트를 제외한 주택가격 수익률은 과거 24~36개월의 자료를 이 용하여 산출한 변동성에 각각 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 우리나라 자산가격 변동의 기준점 효과 및 전망이론적 해석 가능성 검정 95","PeriodicalId":32627,"journal":{"name":"KDI Journal of Economic Policy","volume":"33 1","pages":"93-124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68934642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After analysing debt service capacity profiles of debtor groups classified by the borrower characteristics such as income, age, occupation, credit scoring, and the type of creditor business companies, we investigate the impact of interest rate and income changes on debt service-to-income ratios (DTIs) and default rates of respective debtor groups. Empirical results indicate that debt service burdens are relatively high for low income wage earners, high income self-employed, low income capital and card loan holders, and high income mutual savings loan holders. We also find that debtors from multiple financial companies are particularly weak in their debt service capacity. The scenario analysis indicates that financial companies, with the current level of capital buffers, may be able to absorb negative consequences arising from the increase in DTIs and loan default rates if the interest rate and income changes remain modest. However, the negative consequences may fall disproportionately on non-bank financial companies such as capital, credit card, and mutual savings banks, whose debtors' DTIs are already high. We also find that the refinancing risk of household debt is relatively high in Korea as more than half of household mortgage debts are bullet loans. As the DTIs of mortgage loan holders are already high, under the current DTI regulation, mortgage loans may not be readily refinanced especially when the interest rate rises. Disruptions in mortgage loan refinancing may put downward pressure on housing prices, which may in turn magnify refinancing risk under the current loan-to-value (LTV) regulation. Overall our analysis suggests that, for more effective monitoring of household debt risk, it is necessary to combine existing surveillance schemes based on macro aggregate indicators with more comprehensive and detailed risk analyses based on micro individual data. 본 연구에서는 국내 최초로 총 2,210만 명의 개인신용 전수미시자료에 기초하여 차주별 특성 및 금융업권별로 부채상환능 력을 비교.분석하고, 거시경제 충격에 따 른 금융권역별 총부채상환비율(DTI)과 불 량률의 변화, 차환위험 분석 등을 통해 가 계부채의 건전성을 평가하였다. 실증분석 결과, 차주별로는 저소득 근로 자와 고소득 자영업자의 부채상환부담이 상대적으로 높고, 금융업권별로는 캐피탈","PeriodicalId":32627,"journal":{"name":"KDI Journal of Economic Policy","volume":"32 1","pages":"1-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68934220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
