The Financial Supervisory Service noted that Director Lee Bok-hyun held an 'emergency financial situation inspection meeting' on the 15th and urged, 'Do not be swayed by the current political situation, and do your best for market stability and current issues without any work gaps.'
According to the FSS, Director Lee ordered that the direction of financial supervision for 2025 be established promptly in the meeting and that this year's current issues be carried out as planned without disruption. Director Lee specifically said, 'Regarding the direction of financial supervision and inspection in 2025, it is necessary to increase predictability so that financial companies can establish and implement business plans without disruption by communicating with the market.'
Director Lee stated that management of household loans and strengthening the management of soundness regarding financial companies' troubled real estate project financing establishments should also be enhanced.
Director Lee emphasized the need to closely monitor market conditions on the 16th, the first day after the impeachment motion against President Yoon Suk-yeol passed the National Assembly. This was in line with the emergency response plan, which aimed to assess liquidity, soundness, and financial system stability. Director Lee said, 'We must maintain an enterprise-wide risk management posture in anticipation of emergencies.'
The FSS will continue to communicate with overseas investors and regulatory authorities and will regularly monitor the funding conditions of corporations. The FSS plans to actively respond to incidents such as voice phishing and the dissemination of false information.
