초록

This paper analyses the reality where supervisory administrators for guarantee insurance businesses and guarantee mutual aids are different respectively and the guarantee market is thereby distorted because respective supervisory administrators set different regulations on the businesses subject to their supervision and control, Based on that analyse, this paper suggests some improvements as alternatives. Before it analyses problems arising from different regulations set by different supervisory administrators, this study clarifies that the legal effects of both guarantee insurance contracts and guarantee contracts can not be different in terms of subrogation of creditors and recourse to principal debtors and other security offering debtors because both contracts assume the same kind of risks. This study argues that the fact that Korean supreme court have applied some different legal effect to both contracts can be influenced by the real market under different regulations, which has nothing to do with the legal effects of both contracts. Subsequently, this study analyses problems in detail caused by different regulations. Different market regulations could be justified by the policy that any industry or business should be protected by restricting competitions with sacrificing consumers. However, the history reveals that such a policy could not achieved the targeted policy purposes; to the contrary, it resulted in the distortion of the market. What is more necessary, which the history evidences, is that the policy focus should be on the protection consumers rather than industry, with supporting fair competition. Such policies can be more effective in terms of the protection of industry or business. Assuming that it is the time to dismantle the mechanism whereby the market between guarantee insurance businesses and guarantee mutual aids is artificially divided, this study proposes some alternatives to artificial different regulations set on both businesses, such as unification of administrative regulations, supervisory administrators or supervisory systems.
