Thus, the organisational links between the Dutch central bank (as banking supervisor) and the insurance supervisor have been strengthened. This allows for an integrated approach to prudential supervision. On the other hand, issues related to the conduct of business and consumer protection have been concentrated in the Financial Markets Authority.
Taking this opportunity, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to our predecessors who devoted themselves to the development of the Bank of Korea and our economy, and to the many people who have supported and encouraged the Bank.
