[Law Firm Now] Barun to Hold Capital Market Regulatory Risk Response Strategy Seminar

"Practical Support for Executives, Legal, and Risk Management Officers"

Barun Law LLC (Co-Representatives: Lee Donghoon, Lee Younghee, Kim Dohyung) has organized a seminar to forecast the direction of supervision and inspection by financial authorities amid the rapidly changing regulatory environment of the capital market, and to explore how companies should respond.

Barun announced on January 19 that it will hold the "Capital Market Regulatory Risk Response Strategy Seminar" on February 4 at 2:00 p.m. in the Conference Hall on the 2nd floor of the Textile Center Building.

Since the launch of the new administration, the focus on financial consumer protection has intensified, and the regulatory environment surrounding financial institutions and capital market participants is also evolving rapidly. Financial supervisory authorities are shifting from traditional ex-post and one-off inspections and investigations to a more continuous and sophisticated supervisory system.

During this seminar, participants will examine the anticipated directions of supervision and inspection that the Financial Supervisory Service may focus on, given these policy changes. The seminar will comprehensively address major issues such as: recent private equity fund issues and inspection directions; procedures and practical responses to investigations of unfair trading in the capital market; and the latest regulatory issues concerning virtual assets. In particular, based on real-world cases and practical experience in each area, the seminar will share with participants the key response points that financial institutions and related companies need to check in advance, as well as practical strategies to consider during investigations and inspections.

The seminar will be divided into four sessions.

In the first session, Choi Wonwoo, an advisor at Barun and a capital market expert formerly with the Financial Supervisory Service, will present on "Capital Market Financial Supervisory Service Inspection Directions and Implications." The second session will feature attorney Lee Eunkyung (38th Judicial Research and Training Institute) presenting on "Recent Issues and Inspection Directions Related to Private Equity Funds." The third session will be led by attorney Jin Moosung (33rd Judicial Research and Training Institute), who will discuss "Responses to Capital Market Unfair Trading Investigations and Major Cases." The final, fourth session will have attorney Choi Jinhyuk (2nd Bar Exam) present on "Recent Trends and Regulations in the Virtual Asset Industry - Focusing on the Second Phase of Virtual Asset Legislation and Stablecoins." After all presentations, a Q&A session will be held for seminar participants.

Kim Dohyung, Co-Representative Attorney, stated, "This seminar has been organized to provide practical support to executives and legal, compliance, and risk management officers at financial institutions and companies who are considering risk management and response strategies amid changes in the financial regulatory environment," adding, "Barun will continue to strive to offer practical solutions for companies facing increasing regulatory risks."
