Prior to the IMF, It was ordinary for the constructor to secure the commercial premises directly, presell in lots, and then proceed with the construction work.
But in 1997, many construction companies became bankrupt, due to a sharp drop in Real Estate business, unsold subdivision houses, and cash-flow problems caused by the IMF.
They started P.F (Project financing) which was based on payment guarantees of constructors, because it was necessary to rapidly reorganize the industrial structure of the housing supply system.
The size of the P.F market was about 28 trillion won in 2015.
The financing of Real Estate Development has changed variously into Fund, Reits ,ABS ABCP based on P.F. At the beginning of imposing the P.F, we had to depend on granting of credit of constructors, due to the limited availability of property in Korea.
We could say that it wasn't the basic solution of solving the existing financial system, but rather, an alternative method of changing the existing financial system. Although P.F system was a suitable system for other countries, we needed time to adopt to the new surroundings.
So there is no doubt that P.F inevitably need to be restructured and brought up to date. Due to the structure of Real Estate Development, banking organs focus on granting of credit of constructors than business value when the company P.F system, so it raises problems. The worst that can happen is the constructors take a big risk when they use P.F. Therefore, we must not give any burden to constructors but share the responsibility that falls on constructors shoulders.
Some expect the financial agencies and investors to share the risks. We need banking organs that are capable of estimating business value and a main body of business that has an abundance of capital. However the reality of P.F tells a different story.
We aew deficient at banking organs that can think the possibility about loan based on business value and main body of business that has an abundance of capital and supervising ability on business.
I'd like to lay improvement suggestion out in the research based on business structure and business value evaluation.
Developers, constructors and banking organs will play a key role in P.F of Real Estate Development.
Developers need a system that have a qualification process based on seed capital, expanded investment, reform of awareness, capital, the ability of business promotion and credit rating.
Constructors have to change the business participation on granting of credit to a feasibility study on business value.
In addition to banking organs that have responsibility on P.F have to break routine validity checking criterion, have to reinforce professional manpower that can examine the business value, and have to improve the Real Estate financial engineering tools through diversification.
And there is an improvement plan about business value evaluation.
I suggest an objective and systematic valuation system based on economical, financial, technicalevaluation items are departmental I zed,and also establish objective DataBase for professional manpower training, foundation of institution and project feasibility analysis.
The purpose of this research is to contribute to P.F vitalization by finding the problems of existing P.F, showing an improvement plan , and making a basic system based on change of awareness of the enterprise participants.
