Special Lectures on Korea Investment & Securities featuring enthusiastic participation of students interested in investment.

Korea University Business School (Dean=Johngseok Bae) Career Development Center held an online lecture on December 4 (Friday) about the Korea Investment & Securities Research Center. This special lecture was based on a report released by the Korea Investment & Securities Research Center in October, which taught students the concept of the ‘Price to Dream Ratio (PDR)’ indicator. The lecture was jointly conducted by Yoon Hee-do, head of the center, and other research center employees.

PDR Indicators are new indicators for assessing industries with high future value in stock investment. The indicator was developed to reflect the recent phenomenon in which industries with high potential are drawing attention, although they are not making immediate profits. The PDR metric represents the Price/Dream ratio, the market capitalization divided by the product of the potential market size and market share.

The analysis of PDR indicators in the BBIG industry was the main focus of this special lecture. The BBIG industry stands for △ Battery △ Bio (Bio) △ Internet Game (Internet and Game), which are the currently growing industries. Presentations on the differences in specific methods of calculating PDR indicators by sector, major growth factors, and the most notable sub-sector were followed.

The special lecture was held for about an hour, and despite the constraints of online special lectures, it was completed successfully with active questions and answers.
