초록

Global venture capital investment continues to increase and investment in fintech startups is also showing a remarkable increase. Fintech startups are leading digital innovation in the financial industry aimed at address- ing pain points, which exist in the ecosystem of traditional financial institutions. In particular, the startup companies are improving conveniences such as payment, remittance, and asset management services. Meanwhile, robo-advisor companies are expanding their influence in capital markets by outperforming bench- marks with a low commission system. However, research on factor analysis that contribute to value increase in the growth process of fintech startups remains at a conceptual level. This is because global fintech industry growth has been rapid in recent few years, while growth of fintech industry in Korea has been relatively slow, due to regulations and systems that hinder the growth of related companies. Hence, it is difficult to obtain related research data. The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze whether Corporate Venture Capital (CVC), which aims at both financial performance and strategic collaboration, has affected the increase in the value of global fintech startups. There have been various studies on the impact of CVC investment on technology-based (or high-tech) startups, but this study analyzed the effect of CVC investment on fintech startups that have not been studied much before. To this end, global fintech dataset from 2000 to 2020 was used to analyze the impact of variables such as CVC investment, the company's business history, the founder's final school level, and the type of service provided on the corporate value of fintech startups. As a result of the analysis, the conclusion is that CVC investment had a significant effect on the value increase of fintech startups. Especially, in the growth stage of fintech, CVC investment in the late stage was the most effective, and by service type, CVC investment in the asset management segment was the most significant. This study provides an opportunity to review the importance of policies to vitalize CVC investment, along with the meaning of theoretical proof of the role of CVC investment in the growth of fintech companies.

Abstract

Global venture capital investment continues to increase and investment in fintech startups is also showing a remarkable increase. Fintech startups are leading digital innovation in the financial industry aimed at address- ing pain points, which exist in the ecosystem of traditional financial institutions. In particular, the startup companies are improving conveniences such as payment, remittance, and asset management services. Meanwhile, robo-advisor companies are expanding their influence in capital markets by outperforming bench- marks with a low commission system. However, research on factor analysis that contribute to value increase in the growth process of fintech startups remains at a conceptual level. This is because global fintech industry growth has been rapid in recent few years, while growth of fintech industry in Korea has been relatively slow, due to regulations and systems that hinder the growth of related companies. Hence, it is difficult to obtain related research data. The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze whether Corporate Venture Capital (CVC), which aims at both financial performance and strategic collaboration, has affected the increase in the value of global fintech startups. There have been various studies on the impact of CVC investment on technology-based (or high-tech) startups, but this study analyzed the effect of CVC investment on fintech startups that have not been studied much before. To this end, global fintech dataset from 2000 to 2020 was used to analyze the impact of variables such as CVC investment, the company's business history, the founder's final school level, and the type of service provided on the corporate value of fintech startups. As a result of the analysis, the conclusion is that CVC investment had a significant effect on the value increase of fintech startups. Especially, in the growth stage of fintech, CVC investment in the late stage was the most effective, and by service type, CVC investment in the asset management segment was the most significant. This study provides an opportunity to review the importance of policies to vitalize CVC investment, along with the meaning of theoretical proof of the role of CVC investment in the growth of fintech companies.
