The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) has decided to appeal to the Supreme Court regarding the second-instance ruling (Seoul High Court 2022Nu38955) on the cancellation lawsuit of sanctions filed by former Hana Bank President Ham Young-joo and others related to the sale of derivative-linked funds (DLF).


On the 14th, the FSS announced that after external legal consultation and discussions with the Financial Services Commission, it decided to appeal to the Supreme Court on the same day.



The FSS stated, "We respect the second-instance court's ruling on former President Ham and others," but added, "Considering that there are still unclear aspects regarding the legal issues related to the establishment of internal control standards, we decided to appeal to confirm the judiciary's final position."
