The eldest son of Mirae Asset Financial Group Chairman Park Hyeon-joo, Jun-beom, will move to Mirae Asset Securities. Jun-beom is currently working as a senior investment officer at Mirae Asset Venture Investment. As Jun-beom starts working at Mirae Asset Securities, the group's core, some say the clock on management succession could speed up.

According to the securities industry on the 31st, Park, the senior officer, will move from Mirae Asset Venture Investment to Mirae Asset Securities starting in the new year through personnel changes announced that day. Park is said to leverage expertise while working in the PI (proprietary investment) institutional sector.

Some had expected a move to Mirae Asset Global Investments, but with assessments that securities is where Park can best demonstrate expertise, the move to securities was decided. Mirae Asset Securities is the key affiliate that accounts for the largest share of the group's total net profit and global business.

Born in 1993, Park studied economics at Washington University in St. Louis in the United States. After graduating, Park worked at Netmarble as a project manager for two years starting in 2020, and joined Mirae Asset Venture Investment in 2022, serving as an investment officer. Over the past three years, Park led deal sourcing and investment in the startup 2020, and also spearheaded a secondary share investment in the apparel company Andar, taking proactive steps.

Mirae Asset Financial Group has a governance structure that runs "Chairman Park → Mirae Asset Consulting → Mirae Asset Global Investments → Mirae Asset Capital → Mirae Asset Securities → Mirae Asset Life Insurance."

Regarding this, a Mirae Asset official said, "As the importance of unlisted investments grows, this is to expand personnel to discover innovative growth companies." A senior Mirae Asset official also said, "This is a process to handle investment and strategy as an outside director in the future, and it is not succession."
