[Alpha Biz= Reporter Paul Lee] According to the financial investment industry on the 23rd, Lee Bok-hyun, head of the Financial Supervisory Service, said at a closed-door executive meeting that he will remain in office until at least the third quarter.
Currently, financial authorities have various tasks such as supporting value-up programs to enhance corporate value, sanctions related to incomplete sales of the Hong Kong H Index Equity-Linked Securities (ELS), risk management of real estate project financing (PF), and improving the short selling system.
Lee seems to have made up his mind to wrap up the issue himself.
Earlier, Lee was embroiled in rumors of joining the Cabinet as he abruptly canceled all scheduled schedules, including a sudden absence from a meeting of the Financial Services Commission on the 17th. In particular, Lee was mentioned as a strong candidate for the post of senior secretary for legal affairs, which is under consideration in the presidential office.
