On 19 June 2023, the Korean Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) issued a notice according to which domestic employees can be sanctioned for violating the Foreign Exchange Transaction Act if they sell foreign-listed shares through an overseas broker or deposit funds resulting from the sale of foreign-listed shares with an overseas financial institution. To avoid sanctions, domestic employees are required to open an account with a Korean domestic broker, transfer the foreign-listed shares to such account, sell the shares through the domestic broker, and deposit the proceeds into an account with the domestic broker.
