Korea and China Face a New Era of Cooperation in Finance
:: Issue Analyses Korea and China face a new era of cooperation in finance Dr. Lim Ho-yeol Chief Representative of Beijing Office, Bank of Korea ince 2008 Korea, China and Japan have been operating about 50 intergovernmental consultation channels, including summit meetings, and more than a hundred cooperative projects. With S the establishment of the Trilateral Cooperation Secretariat (TCS) in Seoul in 2011, financial cooperation among the three countries entered the stage of institutionalization. Korean and Chinese commercial banks had entered each other’s country from early on to support business activities in currency finance. Now, financial cooperation is expanding at the central bank level: in 2012 the Bank of Korea (BOK) received a Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors (QFII) license from the Chinese government and began investing in China’s stock market; BOK was also granted a quota by the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) to invest in China’s bond market. In the future, the two countries will expand cooperation in various other fields, including cross-border trade settlements in their respective currencies, and investment in each other’s sovereign bonds. 79 Winter 2012�POSRI Chindia Quarterly ○● Korean and Chinese financial institutions continue to enter each other’s markets Since the Chinese government first allowed foreign banks to enter China in 1990, and opened yuan business to foreign banks in 1996, Korean financial institutions have rushed to enter China. At the writing of this article, in November 2012, many Korean banks have developed their operations in the Chinese market: Hana Bank, Woori Bank, Shinhan Bank, and Kookmin Bank (KB) have set up their headquarters in Beijing, and Korea Exchange Bank (KEB) and Industrial Bank of Korea (IBK), in Tianjin.
