Kim Joo-hyeon, president of the Korea Credit Finance Association, was appointed as the first financial chairman of the Yoon Seok-yeol administration.
According to the Financial Services Commission on the 10th, President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol is expected to announce the appointment of Kim nominee as early as this week. After graduating from Jungang High School and Seoul National University Economics Department, Kim entered public office through the administrative examination (25 times) and served as the head of the Financial Policy Bureau of the Financial Services Commission, the secretary general, and the president of the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation. It is evaluated that the new government’s ‘economy one team’ stance appeared as a motive for the act with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Strategy and Finance Choo Kyung-ho.
In addition, it is known that the nominee Kim is more interested in the virtual asset (cryptocurrency) market compared to other candidates for the Financial Services Commission, and attention is being paid to whether he will take a friendly move with virtual assets in the future.
