[Asia Economy Reporter Ji-hwan Park] Samjong KPMG announced on the 18th that it will hold the '6th IPO Success Strategy Webinar' for preliminary IPO companies on the 26th.

Despite the impact of COVID-19, the domestic stock market continues to experience an unprecedented boom due to abundant liquidity inflows. In the first half of this year, 49 IPOs were conducted, recording 3.1756 trillion KRW, showing a significant increase in both the number and amount compared to the same period last year. Various companies are planning IPOs in the second half as well, so the market enthusiasm is expected to continue.

Since the introduction of the new External Audit Act, accounting systems and regulatory environments have been further strengthened, requiring strategies and responses for successful IPOs. In particular, the importance of prior preparation for additional requirements as newly listed companies after completing the IPO has increased.

Through this webinar, Samjong KPMG plans to share specific cases related to accounting and tax issues with companies preparing for IPOs and present successful IPO strategies, including preparation for qualitative review requirements and internal control aspects.

The webinar will begin with a presentation by Seongwon Yoon, head of the Technology Company Listing Department at the Korea Exchange, on 'Listing Systems and Policy Directions of the KOSDAQ and KONEX Markets.' Following this, Jongwon Ha from Liu Law Firm will guide on 'Administrative Management Systems to be Prepared Before Listing Review.' Samjong KPMG's Jinmyung Kang and Jihoon Jang, managing directors, will respectively cover 'Major Accounting Issues Arising During Designated Audits' and 'Tax Issues to Consider Before and After IPO.' Finally, Kyungho Noh, deputy general manager at NH Securities, will present 'IPO Cases from Practical Perspectives.'

Han Eunsub, head of the Audit Division at Samjong KPMG, said, "With the recent continuous expansion of liquidity and IPOs of large-scale companies, the securities market is being revitalized, and the domestic IPO market is expected to expand gradually. For a successful IPO, thorough preparation for accounting and tax issues and proactive response strategies for systems and regulations applied immediately after listing are necessary."
