Abstract: | In this paper we perform an empirical study to create an optimal investment strategy for the regional deployment of IMT-2000,
a next-generation telecommunication service in Korea. We develop a multiple real option model using a binomial lattice, to
evaluate managerial flexibility. Managerial flexibility is evaluated specifically in terms of its decision-making ability,
when considering two deferral options and a sequential compound option for investment. Using the model, we evaluate the IMT-2000
project and find the optimal investment strategy for the three regions of Korea, depending on the annual market situation. |
