KONEX Market Status and Supplementary Measures December 10, 2013 PDF

Whether KONEX will succeed receives lots of attention because this is an experimental market that requires nominated advisors and qualified investors. But it is too early to make any judgments. What is clear for now is that regulators should act quickly to devise supplementary measures and secure interests from issuers as well as investors in order to ensure the success of KONEX.
