The available capital was up 4.7 percent, amounting to KRW 130.3 trillion, thanks to positive net income results driven by improving investment gains. The required capital expanded by 1.4 percent to KRW 49.8 trillion as the capital requirements for credit and insurance risks increased in line with rises in net written premiums and assets under management.
