South Korea’s Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) has issued fresh verbal guidance urging local asset managers to reduce their ETF exposure to crypto-related companies like Coinbase and MicroStrategy. This move reinforces the country’s long-standing 2017 policy that restricts financial firms from investing in or holding digital assets. Some Korean ETFs currently exceed 10% exposure to these firms, prompting regulatory concern. The FSS aims to minimize potential risks linked to volatile crypto markets while ensuring compliance with national financial stability standards.
