South Korea to Strengthen Single-Stock Leveraged ETF Margin Requirements Starting July 31; Target Scale Cut from $12T to $5T

According to the South Korean government, the country will strengthen basic margin requirements for single-stock leveraged ETFs starting July 31. The move, ordered by President Lee Jae-myung, aims to reduce the asset scale from approximately 12 trillion won to 5 trillion won. Securities firms noted that the settlement-after-collection rule—which restricts the reuse of sale proceeds until after actual settlement—is expected to have a greater impact on trading turnover than the 30 million won entry barrier.
