South Korea to Amend KIC Law, Establish Domestic Strategic Account With 600 Billion Won Initial Funding

According to Edaily on July 16, South Korea's government plans to amend the Korea Investment Corporation (KIC) law to establish a separate domestic strategic account within the institution by year-end, enabling KIC to invest in local advanced industries alongside its existing overseas asset management operations. The initiative requires approximately 600 billion won in seed funding, to be sourced from state-owned enterprise dividends and government capital contributions. The law revision will modify existing provisions restricting KIC to overseas foreign-currency asset management, allowing won-denominated domestic investments starting from 2027 pending completion of organizational restructuring and operational framework development.
