FSC Chairman Meets with Bank Chiefs and Urges Cooperation on Consumer Safeguard Measures

FSC Chairman Eun Sung-soo held a meeting with heads of major banks on April 1 to discuss various issues and seek cooperation on the implementation of new consumer safeguard measures. At the meeting, Chairman Eun talked about the heightened responsibilities of banks as well as the more deliberate sales process that is required by the new consumer safeguard measures which can be cumbersome to both consumers and bank employees. To help resolve this problem, Chairman Eun suggested that financial institutions can inform their customers about the changes taking place in a more proactive manner to mitigate confusions and quickly become accustomed to the new practices. In this regard, Chairman Eun said that the authorities will provide active support through close communication with the industry. Chairman Eun also spoke about other issues with bank chiefs, such as the extension of maturity extension and payment deferral for small merchants and SMEs, taking into account businesses potential for recovery when evaluating their credit ratings, the household debt management plan, expanding the contribution base for microfinance services, strengthening efforts for vishing prevention and working to stamp out speculation in the real estate market. * Please refer to the attached PDF for details.

Legal Framework on the Supervision of Non-holding Groups to Allow Preemptive Risk Management

The FSC introduced the supervisory regulation on non-holding financial groups on March 31 as a final step in setting up the legal framework on the supervision of financial conglomerates. The FSC first introduced the best practice guidelines on the supervision of financial conglomerates in July 2018 and has carried out oversight on the financial soundness of non-holding financial groups through administrative guidance. The enactment of the new legislation (the Act hereinafter) in December 2020 paved the way for establishing legal foundations for the supervision of non-holding financial groups.As the Act is scheduled to go into effect on June 30, 2021, the authorities will put up the supervisory regulation for advance notice from April 1 to April 21, scheduled to go into effect on the same day as the Act after an approval from the FSC. The supervisory regulation contains specific details about the designation of non-holding groups, internal control and risk management requirements, capital adequacy standards, rules and procedures for reporting and disclosure and assessment criteria for risk management. The new legal framework on the supervision of financial conglomerates takes into account international standards as well as the regulatory experiences gained from the past two years. The authorities expect that the new Act will help enhance the management of group-wide risks in a more systematic and effective way, thereby allowing a more preemptive management of systemic risks in the financial markets. * Please refer to the attached PDF for details.

Improving Rules on Credit Business to Expand Financing Opportunities for Lower Income Groups

The FSC announced its plans to improve rules on credit business to make sure that financing opportunities are sufficiently provided to lower income groups even after the four percentage point reduction in maximum legal lending rate takes effect in July. Along the same line, the authorities will continue to work on the measures to stamp out illegal predatory lending as planned. Key Measures I. Lowering fees to help reduce lending costs The maximum brokerage fees will be lowered by one percentage point. For loans of up to KRW5 million, the fee will be reduced from four percent to three percent. For loans in excess of KRW5 million, the current fee of KRW200,000 plus three percent of the amount in excess of KRW5 million will be reduced to KRW150,000 plus two percent of the amount in excess of KRW5 million. II. Easing Regulations on Selective Credit Businesses Among the registered entities, the authorities will select credit businesses that have no records of violating regulations and are focused on lending to lower income groups to offer them an array of regulatory incentives with the aim of ultimately making more credit lending opportunities available to lower income groups. The incentives will include fundraising opportunities through banks, allowing their loan services to be put up on online loan brokerage platforms along with the mainstream loans and increasing the total asset threshold from the current tenfold of equity capital. III. Improving Efficiency in Consumer Protection through Tightened Supervision Regulatory supervision will be strengthened to close loopholes in consumer protection. For the registered entities, the authorities will seek to introduce new monetary sanctions in place of the current three-month suspension of business operation, prevent unfair lending contracts by strengthening supervision on loan agreements and newly create a registration qualification that requires credit businesses to maintain a minimum number of regular employees.

FSC Chairman Vows Continued Support for SMEs

FSC Chairman Eun Sung-soo visited the newly opened financial support center at the Korea Federation of SMEs on March 29 and held talks on the governments efforts in providing financial support to SMEs. The following is a summary of Chairman Euns remarks. The government has made various types of financial support available for SMEs and small merchants. It has abolished the joint and several liability by state-backed lending institutions and strengthened the provision of venture capital to promising SMEs and venture firms. To help with the COVID-19 crisis, maturity extensions and payment deferrals were made available from all financial sectors since April of last year. The recently announced six-month extension of maturity extension and payment deferral as well as the governments plan for a gradual normalization have taken into account various comments from SMEs and small merchants. As such, the authorities will work to ensure that these support measures are effectively implemented. For SMEs, there are growing concerns over deterioration in borrowing conditions, as their credit ratings will reflect last years decreased sales performance which may cause higher borrowing rates. To help mitigate these concerns, the authorities are in close consultation with the financial sectors. First, for SMEs undergoing a temporary hardship due to a worsening of business environment but are expected to bounce back soon after, their potential for recovery will be sufficiently taken into account when assessing their credit ratings. Second, for SMEs experiencing an unavoidable fall in credit rating, the authorities will work to minimize the impact on their maximum borrowing cap, interest rate, etc. Moreover, the government will work on measures to prepare for a post-pandemic economy. To help relieve the payment burdens after the expiration of maturity extension and payment deferral, consulting services will be provided to SMEs and small merchants to allow long-term installment payments b

FSC to Closely Monitor Market Situations and Gradually Roll Back Crisis Response Measures

Vice Chairman Doh Kyu-sang held the 37th financial risk assessment meeting via teleconference on March 25 and discussed the progress in the implementation of the COVID-19 financial support for small merchants and SMEs. The following is a summary of Vice Chairman Dohs remarks. (Pandemic Response Measures) In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the government implemented a KRW175 trillion-plus emergency financial support package to provide support for small merchants and SMEs, stabilize financial markets and help businesses in key industries with liquidity shortages. Thanks to the active support shown by the financial institutions, markets quickly bounced back and financial difficulties experienced by small merchants and other vulnerable groups began to ease. On the Korean governments bold response to the crisis situation, the IMF in January this year released a positive assessment, and the OECDs recent growth forecast expects Korea to achieve a full recovery within this year. Bold and preemptive responses were effective given that the scale of policy response had to exceed market expectation at a time when extreme anxieties were spreading across markets. However, with signs of an economic recovery in the US, inflation expectations have been rising as well as the long-term bond yields. In this regard, the government will closely monitor market situations and work on preemptive management to prepare for a possible rate hike in domestic markets. In addition, there have been growing concerns about inappropriate trading activities in stock markets. There are active discussions going on in this regard at the National Assembly to strengthen penalties on unfair and inappropriate trading activities, such as price rigging. The government will closely cooperate with the relevant institutions to work on the prevention of inappropriate trading activities. (Maturity Extension Payment Deferral) Since April 1 of last year, all financial institutions made available maturity extensions
