Hanwha Asset Management announced on November 14 that it will hold a coffee giveaway event to celebrate the net asset value of the 'Hanwha K-Defense Shipbuilding Nuclear Power Fund' surpassing 10 billion won.
This event will be held through the Hanwha Asset Management YouTube channel until November 23. To participate, users must subscribe to the Hanwha Asset Management YouTube channel, leave a comment on the event video within the channel, and verify their participation.
Americano coupons from 'Baekok Coffee' will be provided to 100 winners selected by lottery. The results will be individually notified to the winners on November 25.
This event has been organized to commemorate the net asset value of the 'Hanwha K-Defense Shipbuilding Nuclear Power Fund' surpassing 10 billion won. This fund is the only domestic fund that brings together the three next-generation core industries of defense, shipbuilding, and nuclear power plants.
The fund selects the top five companies by market capitalization in each of the defense, shipbuilding, and nuclear power sectors, allocating 40%, 30%, and 40% of the portfolio to each sector, respectively. Major investment stocks include Doosan Enerbility, HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, Hyundai Rotem, Samsung Heavy Industries, and Hanwha Aerospace.
The 'Hanwha K-Defense Shipbuilding Nuclear Power Fund' aims for more stable returns and lower volatility than investing individually in a single sector, thanks to its diversification effect.
A Hanwha Asset Management representative explained, "Recently, all sectors including defense, shipbuilding, and nuclear power have shown temporary weakness, but major defense companies outperformed market consensus in their third-quarter results. As the outlook for each industry remains positive, we are seeing a steady inflow of funds."
In 2025, the combined operating profit of the three major domestic shipbuilding companies is expected to reach 9.6 trillion won, representing a 179% increase compared to the previous year. There are also high expectations for performance growth driven by the MASGA (Make American Shipbuilding Great Again) project.
Nuclear power, which has emerged as a key bargaining chip in negotiations with the United States, is also drawing significant expectations for future performance. At the end of last month, Hyundai Engineering & Construction surged by over 16% on October 24 following news of its participation in a large-scale nuclear power plant project in the United States.
For the defense sector, several noteworthy issues are on the horizon, including negotiations with Middle Eastern and European countries for the introduction of the K2 tank and meetings with the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Defense.
Choi Youngjin, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Hanwha Asset Management, stated, "This is the result of responding to Hanwha Asset Management's investment philosophy of focusing on 'the power that moves the world,'" adding, "We will contribute to generating stable returns for investors."
