  • On 19 November, the Financial Services Commission (FSC) announced major rule changes on corporate mergers and acquisitions have been approved by the Korean government.

  • Revised rules have three specific goals: Improve rules on calculating and determining merger prices when M&As take place between nonaffiliated business entities, strengthen disclosure duties, and improve external evaluation system.

  • If the Korean government is really serious about making positive rule changes, they need to apply these new laws not just for NON-AFFILIATED companies but more importantly for AFFIILATED companies.
