Green financing is currently on the initial stage in Korea, just like the green growth policy. Thus, banks are contextually not willing to invest or loan in the green technology or industry for profitability, because the high uncertainty （risk） exists and because Korean people have little concern on green financing, though they have recognized the necessity of green growth. Therefore, the reinforcement of government＇s role is suggested in this research. The public financial agencies are now very important in popularizing the green financing in Korea, and the most effective policy will be the credit guarantee for green technologies or companies provided by public agencies, as shown in the financing policy for the small and middle enterprises. Regarding public efforts, banks should try to perform green financing for both their own profitability and social benefit together with the step-by-step approach, according to the growth stage of green industry and green financing.展开更多

Major reasons are the decline of US-led Western developed economies' global influence; US and other Western countries inaction or ineffective actions; power diffusion allowing non-state actors to intervene; a global governance short of needed rules; and mainstream economic theory's overemphasis on market roles. International disorder is a long-term process posing a potential threat to China's national interests. The situation challenges China to create an international economic and trade order, thereby shaping itself as prophet of global free trade, shaper of international economic and trade rules, and trendsetter for globalization.展开更多

Though international relations are constantly adjusted, the world is by no means more stable and orderly. International order reshaping triggered by the 2008 financial crisis is deepening, with chaos of various kinds popping up here and there. In the sociopolitical field, the"Trump phenomenon"and Brexit indicate serious weakening of the authority of traditional political systems and elites. In major country relations and international security, the world is witnessing the rise of emerging countries and the and fall of the West, fiercer US-Russia and Sino-US wrestling of strategic significance, and greater global and regional security risks. In global governance, while adjustment of UN-centered global governance is laboring along, national rivalries touch core issues, making global governance more urgent.展开更多
