Korea Exchange (KRX) said on the 6th that it held a roundtable for global institutional investors.
The exchange held the "KOSPI Roundtable 2025: The dawn of Korea premium" from the 3rd to the 6th in Paris, France. It co-hosted the event with BofA, UBS, the French Asset Management Association and UN PRI, and targeted major institutional investors in Europe.
At the event, the exchange shared the government's policy direction and the recent performance of the Korean stock market, and introduced institutional improvements such as enhancing shareholder value and improving market accessibility.
Jeong Gyuil, head of Korea Exchange (KRX), said in opening remarks, "With the government's institutional improvements to resolve the 'Korea discount' and investors' support, the KOSPI index surpassed 4,000 points to hit a record high," and added, "We will work to be evaluated as a developed market by global investors going forward."
The exchange said the event helped attract new global investors and that it plans to lay the groundwork for the KOSPI 5,000 era by further expanding investment from global institutional investors.
