  "summary": "Hana Securities is diversifying its foreign-currency funding base and bolstering its capital position by expanding its investment in global investment banking, corporate finance, and venture capital. The brokerage has introduced foreign-currency hybrid capital securities for the first time among South Korean securities firms, issuing $300 million in U.S. dollar-denominated hybrid capital securities with a 30-year maturity and a 6.50% coupon. This move adds a capital-eligible instrument to its funding portfolio, aiming to diversify both funding sources and maturities. The latest transaction is part of a broader strategy that Hana Securities has been building over the past few years, with its foreign-currency funding expanding from three-year dollar bonds to five-year senior notes and now to 30-year hybrid capital securities.",
