Abstract

This study examined the moderating effects of FTA utilization level on the effects of value chain activity capacity on business performance. Based on a survey of 117 SMEs located in jeollanamdo provinces in Korea, the empirical results indicate that the primary activity capacity, support activity capacity of value chain activities and FTA utilization level have positive effects on business performance. but it did not reveal the moderating effects of the FTA utilization level on the effects of value chain activity capacity on business performance. This study has the following theoretical implications. First, it is meaningful that micro-FTA research was conducted for SMEs rather than macro-level FTA research. Second, in connection with the FTA, it is significant that the value chain activities were divided into the primary activities and the support activities. Finally, it is significant that this study examined the moderating effects of FTA utilization level. In addition, this study has the following practical implications. First, it is suggested that the FTA is not utilized as a business resource because the moderating effects of the FTA utilization level is not found. Second, it is meaningful to present the direction of redesigning the value chain for future GVC utilization by analyzing the actual situation of SMEs as value chain activities.
