[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyo-jin] The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) announced on the 24th that it will hold a 'Crisis Response General Meeting' daily to swiftly respond to the financial market crisis caused by the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).


This expands and strengthens the previously operated 'Financial Situation Review Meeting' aimed at minimizing the impact of COVID-19 on the financial market.


The Crisis Response General Meeting is held every day at 8:30 a.m. and serves to review financial market trends and risk factors.


At the first meeting held on the day, the FSS checked the short-term money market situation and the status of financial support implementation for companies affected by COVID-19, and discussed response measures.



The FSS also decided to check whether banks are smoothly performing their foreign currency fund intermediation functions for foreign exchange end-users such as export-import companies.
