Chairman Lee Eog-weon of the Financial Services Commission presided over the meeting on the prevention of stock market manipulation and unfair trading activities on July 8 with officials from related organizations, market experts, and joint response team participating. The joint response team for preventing stock market manipulation and unfair trading activities was launched in July last year. In this regard, Chairman Lee said that the joint response team has since worked on the frontlines of ensuring trust and credibility in our capital markets by quickly identifying illegitimate activities and bringing strict sanctions against them. Going forward, Chairman Lee said that authorities will seek to strengthen the organization's investigative and sanctions capacity and expand the utility of the AI-driven market surveillance system.
