Macquarie invites you to attend our Korea Value-Up Program Conference on 24 May.

Encouraged by the full-fledged recovery of the memory semiconductor sector and the long-term structural growth of the EV battery industry, the Korean equity market looks set to continue its rally, potentially sharing the momentum of India, Japan, and Taiwan.

The government has announced the Value-Up Program, which has excited Korea? 14m domestic stock investors, as well as foreign investors. The Korean stock market has long suffered the perception of a ?orea Discount,·and has been challenged by legacy corporate governance issues, partly caused by an extremely high tax burden and very complicated conflict-of-interest issues, have weighed on stock sentiment. Now, President Yoon? initiatives to boost equity market, including the value-up program, are adding positive momentum to the stock market. Investors want to know how sustainable the program will be, and whether it will be able to remove the ?orea Discount·permanently, or even turn it into premium.

Macquarie is hosting a Korea Value-Up Program Conference on 24 May.

We bring together carefully selected experts, who will discuss the government? aims, the possible revisions to tax and commercial law, domestic investors, and will make a comparison with Japan? successful value-up program. Please join us to explore this exciting time for the Korean equity market.
