Welcome to SERIWorld, the English website for Samsung Economic Research Institute.

I'd like to invite you to take full advantage of our research on the Korean economy and business.

As you may already know, Korea is no longer the Land of Morning Calm. It is now known widely as one of the most dynamic economies in the world. Since 2004, the nation has been among the top 12 economies and exporters in the world, delivering cutting-edge products and services in IT and telecommunications to the international market.

We at the Samsung Economic Research Institute, or SERI, have set an overarching goal of being one of the best research organizations in Asia and beyond by 2010. We have two strategies: Q-Innovation, which aims at improving the quality of our research, and G-Innovation, which is designed to widen the scope of our research to international issues while broadening our activities on a global basis.

As part of fulfilling these strategic objectives, we launched the SERIWorld site in November 2004. It is specifically designed for overseas readers who seek in-depth information on Korea, China and Japan. This site offers not only summary and full text of research reports, but also many video clips featured by SERI researchers.

I hope you could enjoy browsing our site and find it an essential interactive tool for your research and intellectual pursuits.
