The Korea Exchange announced on the 11th that Chairman Jung departed on the 10th to hold high-level meetings with major global exchanges, investment institutions, and index providers from the 11th to the 13th.


During this trip, Chairman Jung plans to explore new business opportunities and explain policies for advancing the Korean capital market, including corporate value-up support measures being promoted by the government and the exchange. He will also participate in the 'Futures Industry Association (FIA) International Derivatives Conference' to discuss cooperative projects and strengthen global partnerships through meetings with executives from major exchanges. The FIA International Derivatives Conference, hosted annually by the FIA in March, is the largest global derivatives event, with approximately 430 institutions including major exchanges, investment institutions, and index providers participating.


Chairman Jung is scheduled to meet with Fred Tomczyk, President of the Chicago Board Options Exchange (Cboe), as well as executives from Eurex and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) to review the progress of ongoing cooperative projects and discuss potential new collaborations. In relay meetings with S&P, FTSE, and MSCI, he plans to emphasize efforts made to improve foreign investors' accessibility to the Korean capital market. Additionally, Chairman Jung will visit the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to exchange views with Vice Chairman John Tuttle on recent Korean corporate value-up support measures and explore ways to strengthen Korea-US capital market cooperation. Furthermore, he will provide detailed explanations of Korea’s capital market advancement policies, including the abolition of the foreign investor registration system and corporate value-up support measures, to global institutional investors such as JP Morgan.



An exchange official stated, "We plan to continue actively attracting global investors to the Korean securities and derivatives markets through overseas roadshows and participation in international conferences."
