With the enhancement of various benefits and the expansion of scope available for settlements, the number of check cards in South Korea is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of over 36% between 2009 and 2013, according to our new research report titled “South Korean Payment Card Market”.
The sharp rise will chiefly be attributed to the fact that the use of check cards is possible 24 hours a day at merchants, very longer hours than debit cards. Secondly, deposit holders even aged over 14 are entitled to use check cards, regardless of their credit status, and check card holders can get additional services according to use such as the accumulation of points.
Our analysts also believe that the ongoing gloomy economic environment will not have any negative impact on the check cards. In fact, the environment will stimulate growth in such cards as they have comparatively less delinquency risk involved to issuers. However, the growth rate of other cards like credit cards may be adversely affected by recession. Issuers are hesitating in issuing new credit cards due to the fear of bad debts.
Our findings also indicate that the card (including all kinds of cards) penetration in South Korea is quite high. It is second the highest in the world after the United States. Each South Korean holds on an average of 3.8 cards, which is quite high as compared to other emerging markets in the world.
“South Korean Payment Card Market” provides an extensive research and in-depth analysis of the South Korean payment card market. It studies the emerging market trends, recent developments and their impact on the market. The report will help clients to analyze the leading-edge opportunities, prospective customer base, key players, expected future outlook and all the other factors which are critical for the success of a new entrant in the South Korean payment card market.

Despite the gloomy outlook for the world economy, the medical tourism industry in South Korea witnessed an impressive growth of more than 55% in 2008 over the previous year.

Recently, it has allowed hospitals to market themselves to foreign patients. To further boost the industry, the South Korean government has amended its immigration policies allowing overseas patients as well as their family members to obtain long-term medical visas.

Biofuels can reduce emissions, but not when grown in place of rainforests
Biofuels meant to help alleviate greenhouse gas emissions may be in fact contributing to climate change when grown on converted tropical forest lands, warns a comprehensive study published earlier this month in the journal Environmental Research Letters. Analyzing the carbon debt for biofuel crops grown in ecosystems around the world, Holly Gibbs and colleagues report that "while expansion of biofuels into productive tropical ecosystems will always lead to net carbon emissions for decades to centuries... [expansion] into degraded or already cultivated land will provide almost immediate carbon savings." The results suggest that under the right conditions, biofuels could be part of the effort to reduce humanity's carbon footprint.
