The Korea Exchange (KRX) recently held a “Value-up First Anniversary Seminar.” This press release was distributed on May 27, 2025.
This seminar likely focused on the progress and impact of the “Korea Value-up Program,” which the KRX launched to address the “Korea discount” (where Korean companies are often undervalued compared to their global peers) and encourage better corporate governance and shareholder returns. The KRX also launched a “Korea Value-up Index” in September 2024 featuring 100 best practice firms as part of this initiative.
Other notable recent news related to the KRX includes:
* Implementation of a new KRX IT system: Officially operational from May 5, 2025, this system is expected to bring improvements to trading activities in the Vietnamese stock market (as Vietnam uses the KRX system).
* Introduction of its own night trading in the derivatives market: Announced on April 15, 2025, with an aim to enhance global competitiveness and improve trading convenience for market participants, set to begin in early June 2025.Video courtesy of Escrow.com
