Chairman Ko stated, "Geopolitical risks related to Ukraine have significantly increased, leading to heightened volatility in financial markets such as the stock market. Although volatility in the stock market has somewhat decreased this afternoon and it appears that the impact has not yet spread widely, it is necessary to maintain an emergency response system in preparation for the possibility that the Ukraine situation may develop more urgently."
