The KSD stated, "Government bonds, fiscal securities, monetary stabilization bonds, and foreign exchange stabilization fund bonds (denominated in KRW) are electronically registered and issued in legal ledgers based on the legal issuance grounds such as the Government Bond Act. Since issuance details are regularly and occasionally disclosed through the Ministry of Economy and Finance and the Bank of Korea websites, they were excluded from the analysis."
