Under the agreement, the two companies will work together to develop and expand GPU infrastructure. Korea Investment & Securities will handle financing, drawing on its expertise in structured finance, while VESSL AI will support the overall execution of projects by leveraging its experience operating GPU cloud platforms.

Because GPU infrastructure requires substantial upfront investment, a stable financing base is considered a key factor in determining a project’s success. Korea Investment & Securities can provide a range of financial solutions, including legal and accounting reviews related to projects, private equity fund structuring, and financing plans.

“AI computing infrastructure centered on GPUs is emerging as a new key investment area in global financial markets,” said Bang Changjin, head of the PF Group at Korea Investment & Securities. “With this agreement as a starting point, we will explore various ways to cooperate and actively contribute to the growth of Korea’s AI infrastructure industry.”
