Korea Investment Securities said on Feb. 24 it held a retirement pension academy at its headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul, for retirement pension practitioners including corporate HR and finance staff.
The seminar was organised around institutional change issues of high interest to corporate officials, including "judging whether management performance bonuses constitute wages" and "mandatory retirement pensions".
In the first session, Kim Dong-wook (김동욱), a lawyer at Sejong law firm, gave a lecture on key issues in recent labour precedents including management performance bonuses, as well as the Yellow Envelope Act and the direction of labour policy.
Kim Sung-il (김성일), a researcher at Eum Institute, introduced practical response measures for companies in line with the introduction of fund-type retirement pension schemes and mandatory retirement pensions.
Kim Do-hyun (김도현), head of the Retail Client Group at Korea Investment Securities, said, "As the environment surrounding the pension market changes rapidly, demand is growing for solutions and insights that can be used immediately in the field." He added, "We will continue to help customers manage their pensions stably through differentiated consulting and tailored services as a reliable partner."
