Listing of Government Bond

Government bonds are listed upon receiving the listing application, without listing examination. Of the government bonds issued presently, the treasury bonds and foreign exchange stabilization bonds are listed on the issuing day and according to the regulations governing shelf listing of bonds, the national housing bond (1&2) is listed on the first day of each month. Listing of the treasury bonds and foreign exchange stabilization bonds are handled by the Bank of Korea over Internet, and for the listing of the national housing bond (1&2), on the basis of the application for self listing for the bonds scheduled to be issued during the following year at the end of each year, the KRX lists the scheduled quantity on the first day of each month, and adjusts the listing value upon receiving the notice of issuance value following confirmation of bond issuance for the concerned month.

Listing of Municipal Bond

In common with government bonds, taking into account their public benefits, municipal bonds are listed without listing examination. Listing of shelf-listed municipal bonds, i.e., the provincial development bonds and local subway bonds, is handled in the same way as the national housing bonds (1&2), and listing of bonds issued through public offering is handled in the same way as the corporate bonds. The documents required for listing application for provincial development bonds and subway bonds are an application for self listing and report on result of issuance, and the documents required for listing of the municipal bonds issued through public offering include an application for listing, trust deed, underwriting agreement or sales contract, a copy of an agreement on offering on commitment (only in case where the concerned bonds are issued through indirect offering), etc. Listing application for bonds can be submitted over Internet

Listing of Special Bonds

* Listing requirements and methods for specific laws bonds differ depending on bond type.

  • Monetary Stabilization Bonds
    In common with government bonds, listing application of the monetary stabilization bonds is made on the day of sale or bidding, and they are listed on the issuance day.
  • Shelf listed bonds
    Industrial financial bonds, Korea National Housing Corporation (land) bonds, and land development bonds are listed as shelf listed bonds in the same way as local subway bonds, which are municipal bonds. That means that, on the basis of the application for self listing for the bonds scheduled to be issued in each month during the following year at the end of each year, the KRX lists the scheduled quantity on a fixed day (for example, on 27th of each month for industrial financial bonds), and adjust the listing value upon receiving the notice of issuance value following confirmation of issuance of bonds for the concerned month.
  • Public bonds
    Bonds of the public corporations are issued indirectly through securities firms. For their convenience, the issuing firms are allowed to compile all bonds issued during a month and submit the listing application for such bonds collectively by 10th of the following month.
  • Presale bonds
    Listing of presale bonds (the bonds are issued together after accumulating all bonds sold during a month, thus their issuing date is same, but sale dates are different), which are bank bonds, was handled as a shelf listed bond until June 2001. However, with the abolition of the taxation regulations concerning the holding period in July 2001, the presale bonds are listed by giving different name to each sale date (with same issuing date).
  • Bonds requiring filing of the securities registration statement Filing of the securities registration statement was exempted for the merchant bonds, card bonds, lease bonds, discount financial bonds, and new technology financial bonds, and such bonds issued during a month were accumulated and listing application was made by 10th of the following month. However, with the amendment of the SEA in July 2001, the filing of the securities registration statement has become an obligation. Consequently, in accordance with the bond issuance plan for a fixed duration (up to one year period), issuers of such bonds has to file an application for self listing to the FSC, and an application for additional self listing has to be filed every time when bonds are issued during the specified period. Listing application should be made after filing the application for additional self listing.

Listing of Corporate Bonds

Corporate bonds are required to list on the issuing day. Issuing firms submit a listing application and the KRX lists the bonds after listing examination. Listing application should be made after the FSC has accepted the securities registration statement.

Listing of Foreign Bonds

Foreign bonds refer to the bonds issued by a foreign legal entity (including the foreign corporations established in accordance with the foreign governments, foreign municipal government, foreign public organizations and foreign status and laws as well as the international financial bodies established by an international convention). Because of the difficulties involved in assessing the trustworthiness / soundness of foreign corporations, listing of foreign bonds requires a careful listing examination. Accordingly, in order to ascertain the facts that issuing conditions of the bonds meet the requirements for investor protection and are compatible with the listing and trading systems of the KRX, as well as to enable initiation of appropriate measures, any one who intends to list foreign bonds is required to consult with the KRX on such matters as listing procedures and time prior to submission of an application.
