  • Samsung Press Information

    Samsung Press Information

    Company Overview History of Samsung Samsung's history dates to 1938 when "Samsung General Stores" opened in North Kyung- sang Province, Korea. The company conducted its trade business until the 1950s when it became a producer of basic commodities such as sugar and wool. In 1958, Samsung be- came involved in the insurance industry by incorporating a local fire & marine insurance company. During the 1960s, Samsung became one of the first Korean companies to actively expand its overseas trade. The group consolidated its manufacturing base by adding paper and fer- tilizer businesses. Samsung continued with expansion into the life insurance business, strengthened its retail operations and then moved into the communications sector, success- fully establishing a newspaper and a broadcasting company. The 1970s were a crucial period in shaping present-day Samsung. Its strengths in the semi- conductor, information and telecommunications industries grew from the significant in- vestments made during this period. Samsung also took a meaningful step toward heavy industries by venturing into aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding and construction, as well as chemical industries. In the 1980s, Samsung expanded its efforts into exploring the larger markets overseas. The group began contributing to foreign economies by building facilities in the US, the UK and Portugal. Samsung also invested considerable resources into fostering Korea's rich heritage by supporting a wide range of cultural and artistic activities. The final decade of the 20th century saw the evolution of Samsung's new approach to management. Chairman Kun-Hee Lee's insightful vision and the introduction of the "New Management" in 1993 acknowledged the need to transform management philosophy in or- der to keep up with a rapidly changing global economy.

  • Will the Chaebol Reform Process Move Forward Under the Moon Jae-In Administration? —Future Directions and Challenges—

    Will the Chaebol Reform Process Move Forward Under the Moon Jae-In Administration? —Future Directions and Challenges—

    Will the Chaebol Reform Process Move Forward under the Moon Jae-in Administration? —Future Directions and Challenges— By Hidehiko Mukoyama Senior Economist Economics Department Japan Research Institute Summary 1. Collusive links between politics and business were a major focus during South Korea’s 2017 presidential election. In an address to the national after his election victory, President Moon Jae-in promised to carry out reforms targeting the chaebol (industrial conglomerates) and eliminate collusion between politicians and business people. The purpose of this article is to clarify how the chaebol reform process is likely to proceed, what the focal points will be, and the issues that could arise. 2. The economic policy of the Moon Jae-in administration is based on the four pillars of income-driven growth, the establishment of an economy that will generate jobs, fair competition (including chaebol reform), and growth through innovation. Immediately after taking power, President Moon Jae-in announced policies targeted toward income-driven growth. Efforts to achieve growth through innovation began in the fall of 2017. The chaebol reform process has not yet begun. 3. Chaebol reform is necessary for several reasons. First, the concentration of economic power in the hands of the chaebol is producing harmful effects, including growing economic disparity, and a lack of jobs for young workers. Second, there have been numerous fraud cases relating to the inheritance of management rights by members of the chaebol families. Third, the chaebol have repeatedly colluded with politicians. 4. One reason for repeated cases of business-political collusion is the enormous amount of au- thority wielded by the South Korean president.
