#SouthKoreaCryptoPolicy

South Korea is seeking to enhance its oversight of crypto and expand institutional participation. In the second half of 2025, new regulations will allow universities and charities to sell their donations in digital currencies, with 'real name' accounts opened for approximately 3,500 institutions and professionals. This step is part of a phased plan aimed at allowing listed companies and professional investors to enter the market later. The Financial Committee is also developing a guide for institutional trading and prohibiting unfair practices following the User Protection Law issued in July 2024. The goal: to protect investors and adopt high-level global regulations.
