From Sommelier to animal psychotherapist, the era of specialists has come.
In 2011, there are 286 state-owned entities in South Korea. Putting aside the issue on the scope and number of state-owned entities, they are vital to the functioning of the economy.
We are faced the following circumstances. A growing emphasis on public policies to promptly respond to the recent global financial crisis. Legitimate adjustments to public policies effectively resolving problems related to the current downturn such as undergrowth, intensified global competition and a deteriorating labor market. An increased demand for a customized management system respecting the different characteristics and roles of individual SOEs
In order to cope with the recent situation, the Research Center for State-Owned Entities, the expert on SOEs, was organized. The Research Center for State-Owned Entities currently belongs to Korea Institute of Public Finance subject to the law 'ACT ON THE MANAGEMENT OF PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS'.
