IBK decided to accept the decision of the Financial Supervisory Service Dispute Mediation Committee regarding the damage to the Lime Fund. It has made the same decision as Woori Bank, which accepted the adjustment proposal as it was. If fund victims agree, compensation is expected to begin in earnest from next month.
According to the financial sector on the 25th, IBK held a board meeting this afternoon and decided to accept the Lime Fund dispute settlement proposal. The board of directors said, “We have decided to accept the decision of the Financial Supervisory Service Lime Fund Subcommittee, and accordingly, we will pay compensation to the customer as soon as possible.” Said.
Earlier, on the 9th, the Committee notified IBK of a plan to adjust the 50% basic compensation ratio related to the Lime Fund. The deadline for acceptance was until the 29th.
Industry analysis is that IBK’s acceptance of the adjustment proposal was an expected procedure. On the 15th, Woori Bank, which had already received the same dispute settlement result, officially announced its intention to accept it. IBK’s lime fund sales are 29.4 billion won. As it is much smaller than Woori Bank (357.7 billion won), there were many analyzes that IBK would also accept the adjustment proposal. In addition, it is analyzed that the fact that the reparation work for the Discovery Fund has not yet been completed, the need to smooth the relationship with the financial authorities was applied as the background of the decision.
Accordingly, IBK’s Lime Fund compensation is expected to begin in earnest from next month as soon as possible. For each customer, the final compensation ratio is determined by reflecting individual factors of addition and subtraction from 50%, which is the basic compensation ratio of the adjustment proposal. It is explained that the age of the investor, whether the documents are incomplete, and whether the Happy Call is implemented are considered comprehensively.
