CBPR is not the treaties nor generally recognized rules of international law under the Article 6 of the Korean Constitution. It is a voluntary and advisory opinion so that it has not the power to control the domestic law. It has, however, affected to legal and institutional aspect since the world is opened in political and social aspect and changed to global economy. It also would examine the potential influence to us in process of the development of CBPR.

Fourth, the electronic commerce which are important factors to personal information would be boosted and it could be an opportunity which the financial industry will be internationalized and enlarged.
