The Korean government is set to launch Korea Premium Weeks, a comprehensive event aimed at promoting the nation's capital market and investor relations activities. This large-scale initiative will run from September 28 to October 16, with the theme "Gateway to Asia's Most Dynamic Capital Market." The event, co-hosted by the Financial Services Commission and the Korea Exchange, will see the participation of 42 organizations and 55 listed companies.
Traditionally, investor relations events and capital market conferences in Korea have been handled separately by individual institutions, making it challenging to attract foreign institutional investors to a unified platform. To address this issue, the Korean government has decided to create an integrated event, inspired by similar initiatives in other countries.
Japan has been organizing Japan Week under its Financial Services Agency since 2023, while Taiwan held Taiwan Week last year under its Financial Supervisory Commission.
The opening ceremony for Korea Premium Weeks is scheduled for September 28 at the Grand Lotte Hotel. Following this, the event will feature policy sessions and other discussions aimed at showcasing the competitiveness of Korea's stock market on the global stage.
