RISE Korea Value-Up ETF Surpasses 300 Billion Won in Net Assets

KB Asset Management announced on December 3 that the 'RISE Korea Value-Up ETF' has surpassed 300 billion won in net assets.

Even amid the recent increase in stock market volatility, the share prices of companies benefiting from value-up policies have shown relatively stable performance. As the government's capital market advancement policies, listed companies' share buybacks, dividend increases, and improvements in corporate governance accelerate, expectations are rising for resolving the so-called 'Korea Discount.'

The RISE Korea Value-Up ETF, a leading domestic value-up exchange-traded fund (ETF), has seen active inflows of capital. The RISE Korea Value-Up ETF is highlighted for its differentiated structure, featuring the 'lowest management fees in the industry' and 'monthly dividends.' The total management fee for the RISE Korea Value-Up ETF is 0.008%, the lowest among similar products.

Since the beginning of the year, the fund has achieved a return of 74.36%, with three-month and six-month returns standing at 30.04% and 51.35%, respectively.

The combination of a low-cost structure, stable index composition, and outstanding management performance has resulted in the largest net assets among value-up ETFs listed simultaneously, further boosting investor confidence.

Yook Donghui, Head of ETF Product Marketing at KB Asset Management, stated, "The RISE Korea Value-Up ETF is the largest among value-up ETFs, based on the strengths of the value-up index such as profitability, shareholder returns, and capital efficiency," adding, "Given its ultra-low-cost structure, it is recommended as an alternative to the KOSPI200 ETF."
