Samsung Securities Files Amended Registration for 471 Billion KRW Derivative-Linked Securities


  • Samsung Securities has filed an amended registration statement for the issuance of 471 billion KRW in derivative-linked securities ELS and DLS.
  • The products from series 31202 to 31228 are linked to various underlying assets including KOSPI200, EUROSTOXX50, NKY225, S&P500, and individual stocks, with high-risk structures featuring a maximum loss rate of 100%.
  • Samsung Securities maintains an excellent AA+ credit rating, but investors should consider the full loss of principal if the issuer becomes insolvent.
  • Given the outstanding balance and credit equivalent amounts, Samsung Securities manages a derivatives exposure of approximately 3.3 trillion KRW.
  • [AI Summary]Samsung Securities continues to issue complex financial products backed by its AA+ credit rating, but increasing ELS/DLS issuance without capital expansion may elevate derivative risks. Many products with a 100% maximum loss rate could shift losses to the issuer in volatile markets.
