Despite the proliferation of free trade agreements (FTAs), many exporting firms are still confronted with several challenges in utilizing the FTA preferential tariffs. Based on the Technology–Organization–Environment (TOE) framework, this study empirically examines the factors affecting the utilization of FTA schemes by exporting firms. To clarify the key factors influencing FTA utilization, this study develops a conceptual model from the perspective of the adoption of information technology innovations. Eight factors derived from the TOE framework are proposed to explore the determinants of FTA utilization in export. Partial least squares structural equation modeling is employed to analyze the data collected from 162 exporting small- and medium-sized enterprises in the South Korean textile industry. The findings reveal that compatibility and trading partner influence are positively associated with FTA utilization, while complexity is negatively related. Factors of organizational context do not show any relationship with FTA utilization. This study is the first to theoretically analyze and empirically test the determinants of FTA utilization from the perspective of technological innovation adoptions. By examining the relative importance of TOE factors in the utilization of FTA schemes, this study expects to advance a holistic understanding on the perceived factors that could potentially affect the utilization of FTA schemes.

This book is edited by Hoe Ee Khor, Diwa C. Guinigundo, and Masahiro Kawai. A number of authors participated to write thirty chapters that constitute five parts. Part I is an introduction and overview written by the editors. This part explains the purpose and methodology of this volume. They argue that while “the Asian financial crisis (AFC) is considered one of the most significant and devastating economic and financial crises in recent history,” the region recovered strongly and the success in surmounting the crisis and implementing reforms made the region more resilient. The title of Part II is “What Happened During the Asian Financial Crisis and the Global Financial Crisis.” It consists of 12 chapters. Chapter 1 is an introduction. The other chapters are based on 32 interviews involving interviewees from nine countries in Asia and from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The interviewees were from pivotal organizations engaged in responding to the AFC that included the relevant ministries, central banks, international organizations, and investment firms. Nine chapters from Chapter 2 to Chapter 10 cover Thailand, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and China. Chapter 11 is on the IMF and Chapter 12 is personal takeaways from the Asian Financial Crisis. Among the nine economies, this book grouped Thailand, Indonesia and Korea because they have in common that they were most severely affected by the crisis. This
本书由Hoe Ee Khor、Diwa C.Guinigundo和Masahiro Kawai编辑。许多作者参与撰写了由五个部分组成的三十章。第一部分是编者的介绍和概述。本部分解释了本卷的目的和方法。他们认为，尽管“亚洲金融危机（AFC）被认为是近代史上最重大、最具破坏性的经济和金融危机之一”，但该地区强劲复苏，克服危机和实施改革的成功使该地区更有韧性。第二部分的题目是“亚洲金融危机和全球金融危机期间发生了什么”，共12章。第一章为绪论。其他章节基于来自亚洲九个国家和国际货币基金组织（IMF）的32次采访。受访者来自参与应对AFC的关键组织，包括相关部委、中央银行、国际组织和投资公司。第二章至第十章共九章，涵盖泰国、印度尼西亚、韩国、马来西亚、菲律宾、香港、新加坡、日本和中国。第11章是关于国际货币基金组织的，第12章是亚洲金融危机的个人启示。在这九个经济体中，本书将泰国、印度尼西亚和韩国归为一组，因为它们的共同点是，它们受危机影响最严重。这
