Daishin Securities Issues 20 Billion Won in Derivative-Linked Bonds with Fixed Coupon Structure
Daishin Securities is issuing its 1106th equity-linked derivative bonds linked to the S&P 500 index totaling 19.97 billion won. The registration statement became effective on July 1, 2026 with subscription and payment scheduled for July 20, 2026.
The bond pays a fixed coupon of 3.410% per annum if the underlying index at maturity is at least 500% of the initial level and 3.400% otherwise. Given the extremely low probability of the 500% barrier being triggered, the instrument effectively functions as a principal-protected low-risk bond offering stable returns.
The proceeds will be used for hedging transactions and financial investments with no dilution for existing shareholders. Daishin Securities maintains a credit rating of AA- indicating sound credit quality.
