AppendixSummaryIt has been widely recognized that financial liberalization plays an important role in economic development. Although an expanding body of literature has documented this effect across space and time, the channel through which financial liberalization affects the economic growth remains unclear. This paper employs probit and panel regressions to show that financial liberalization is positively associated with economic growth, with the (positive) direct liberalization effect dominating the (negative) indirect crisis effect. Financial liberalization is expected to increase GDP growth by 0.92 percentage point in the whole sample and by 0.99 percentage point in crisis experienced countries, respectively. Financial liberalization contributes to economic growth even when the sample is restricted to countries that experienced financial crises. (The rest is omitted.) -

Among the investigations, Korea is a major antidumping target. As the balance of trade between the two countries becomes increasingly disproportionate, China has actively utilized antidumping regulations to protect its industries. Korea is very likely to bring antidumping issues to the table once the bilateral free trade negotiations between the two countries begin. (The rest is omitted.) -
