South Korea Regulator Unveils Curbs on High-Risk ETFs
South Korea’s top financial regulator unveiled measures to curb risks from single-stock leveraged exchange-traded funds, seeking to stabilize a local stock market that has seen wild swings, as individual investors use debt to chase profits amid artificial-intelligence-related jitters.
The Financial Services Commission said Thursday that it would suspend new listings of single-stock leveraged ETFs, ban securities firms and asset managers from advertising or marketing such products, and triple the minimum cash deposit for new investments to 30 million won, equivalent to around $20,000.
