2025-03-12 | 84127The Financial Services Commission reported that household loans across all financial sectors increased by KRW4.3 trillion in February 2025, reversing the previous month's decline. This growth was primarily driven by a KRW5.0 trillion rise in home mortgage loans, particularly within the banking sector, while other loan types saw a smaller decline. Authorities attribute the uptick to new annual issuance plans and seasonal housing demand, maintaining a consistent policy stance to monitor potential price spikes and prevent market speculation.
