韩国央行周一表示,已启动24 小时离岸韩元结算网络试点项目,这是韩国为降低外国投资者准入门槛所做努力的一部分。
韩国央行表示,该系统被称为“韩国央行韩元国际电汇网络”(BOK Won International Wire Network),已于当地时间上午9点启动试运行,并与韩国国民银行(Kookmin Bank)、友利银行(Woori Bank)、韩亚银行(Hana Bank)及新韩银行(Shinhan Bank)这四家本土银行开展了合作。
韩国央行表示,该系统定于明年1月份全面投入运行,海外银行将在系统正式上线后加入该网络。
该网络将全天24小时运行,即从每个工作日的上午9点持续至次日上午9点,周末及公共节假日则暂停服务。
该项目将允许境外投资者利用在本国的韩元业务注册境外机构(RFI-K)开立的账户,与其他外国投资者自由交易韩元。
韩国央行表示:“该网络有望改善境外投资者使用韩元结算基础设施的渠道,并最终提升韩元的国际地位。”
