동남권 메가시티전략과 부산금융중심지

Abstract

This paper intends to provide policy recommendations for Busan Financial Center being a solid infrastructure in order to make a successful implementation of mega-city project aiming at the mitigation of capital area and regional development. For this purpose, economic volumes and relative weights to the national economy, together with the number of population and the structures of industry are compared and thoroughly investigated in both the Capital and the Southeast areas. In addition, the following policy agendas are emphasized to make Busan Financial Center as a global financial hub just like Singapore or Shanghai. The suggested policy agendas are as follows; it is necessary to introduce a commodity exchange for hedging the unwanted price fluctuations of the raw materials. Second, linked multi-finance cluster should be established to expand the current designated Moonhyun area and to make a productive connection for promoting the mega-city project pursued by three neighboring metropolitan cities. Third, we suggest northeast marine bank be also established to help and assist the related industries such as shipping, ship-building, marine-based industries. Fourth, offshore hub for Chinese Yuan to reflect the internationalization of Yuan. Lastly, we strongly recommend Busan Finance Corporation as an effective and reliable control tower for making long-term consistent implementation of strategic approaches.
