Hello. I am Sehoon Lee, Secretary General of the Financial Services Commission. I sincerely congratulate you on the 13th Asia Smart Finance Awards ceremony this year.

The Asia Smart Finance Awards is an event to encourage financial investment company professionals who contribute to digital finance through excellent Mobile Trading Systems (MTS), boasting a history of 13 years.

First, I would like to express my gratitude to Woobyeonghyun Gong, CEO of Asia Economy, who always strives for the digitalization of our capital market through this meaningful awards ceremony.

Also, I thank Chairman Soonsub Jung and the judging panel for their efforts in fair evaluation, Deputy Governor Seonoh Hwang of the Financial Supervisory Service, Vice President Kigyung Kim of the Korea Exchange, and CEO Wooseon Hong of Koscom for taking time out of their busy schedules to encourage the digitalization of our capital market. Above all, I sincerely congratulate and thank the awardees, including Korea Investment & Securities and Hana Securities, who have worked hard at the forefront of the capital market’s innovation and are honored with awards today.

Distinguished guests, so far, mobile trading services have grown as a representative means of stock trading, allowing investors to access various investment information and the market more easily without restrictions of time and place.

In particular, since the COVID-19 pandemic, the investor population has greatly increased, and mobile trading services have been recognized as a national service beyond just a service for some investors. Furthermore, recently, mobile trading services have evolved beyond simple stock trading tools into personalized asset management platforms utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) and big data, promoting digital financial innovation.

I am confident that all attendees who have written the history of Korea’s mobile trading services will once again lead the market at the center of these innovative changes.

The government will actively support your efforts and devote more meticulous attention and efforts for the development of the capital market. Once again, I congratulate the securities company officials who have received awards today, and I thank the Asia Economy staff for hosting this meaningful event. Thank you.
