SEOUL, June 26 (Korea Bizwire) — South Korea’s central bank said Thursday it will sell up to 7.2 trillion won (US$5.31 billion) worth of monetary stabilization bonds (MSBs) in July.
The planned issuance represents a 600 billion-won increase from a month earlier, according to the Bank of Korea (BOK).
As policy tools devised to absorb excess liquidity in the market, MSBs are sold to financial institutions and individuals.
