Korea Investment & Securities to Newly List 271 ELW Products
Korea Investment & Securities announced on the 19th that it will newly list 271 Equity-Linked Warrants (ELW).
This includes 92 index-type ELWs based on KOSPI200 as the underlying asset and 179 stock-type ELWs with underlying assets such as Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, NAVER, and Sanil Electric.
An ELW is a financial product that allows investors to trade the right to buy or sell individual stocks or stock indices at a pre-determined price on the maturity date. Investors can choose a call ELW if they expect the underlying asset to rise, or a put ELW if they expect it to fall, thus investing according to market direction. However, if the price of the underlying asset moves in the opposite direction to expectations, up to 100% of the principal may be lost at maturity.
To trade ELWs, investors must undergo a risk profile assessment and complete mandatory pre-investment education. In addition, new customers are required to maintain a minimum deposit of 15 million won.
