The market capitalization of these companies accounts for 83.1% of the total market, and among KOSPI-listed companies, those that disclosed plans represented 87.8% of the KOSPI’s total market capitalization.

Thanks to the government’s capital market reform policies and improved performance among listed companies, the Korea Value-Up Index reached an all-time high of 3,977.00 points as of May 29.
