South Korea\'s Financial Services Commission said financial firms can be exempt from sanctions for minor IT disruptions that occur during security tests or security patches aimed at responding to frontier AI security threats, if certain conditions are met. The FSC approved the measure at a review meeting and distributed response guidance for the financial sector. Exemption conditions include the severity of the disruption, rapid recovery measures and consumer protection steps.

Pinda has conducted compliance training for all employees to strengthen its ability to respond to compliance risks and improve understanding of key financial regulations, including MyData and the Financial Consumer Protection Act. The company said the first-half 2026 programme covered obligations for MyData operators, personal credit information protection and conflict-of-interest prevention. It also addressed rules on advertising, solicitation and brokerage, and requirements for loan brokerage businesses, alongside supervisory trends and sanction cases.
