An Exchange official stated, "Global companies are a leading group in the KOSDAQ market and are included as components of the KOSDAQ Global Segment Index, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), and index futures," adding, "We support corporate value enhancement through participation in the KOSDAQ Global Segment Expo, overseas investor relations (IR) conferences, ESG forums, and English disclosure services."
