Financial regulatory sandbox to be overhauled for fintech
South Korea\'s financial authorities will overhaul the financial regulatory sandbox to make it more fintech-friendly, focusing on lowering entry barriers for startups and strengthening exit strategies into regulated finance after the sandbox ends. The Financial Services Commission said it will revamp the innovative financial services framework across its full cycle. Measures include expanding exclusive operating rights, increasing cost and insurance support for smaller firms, adjusting screening standards for fintech and accelerating regulatory review for successful services.
