According to reports, despite industry concerns about recent fluctuations in leveraged products, the Korea Exchange will officially open after-hours trading of exchange-traded funds on September 14. Korean exchanges intend to compete with alternative trading systems Nextrade and round-the-clock cryptocurrency exchanges. Asset management agencies warned that the lack of real-time fund net worth estimates may increase the price deviation of ETFs; the industry has previously called on the Korea Exchange to postpone the launch of this business. Individual stock leveraged ETFs will not be included in the scope of post-market transactions.
