Matter OF Fact On Household Debt, House Prices & Markets

BOK

The BoK noted that "in domestic financial markets, long-term market interest rates have risen significantly and stock prices have fallen considerably while the Korean won to U.S. dollar exchange rate has increased slightly, mainly driven by global financial market movements. The amount of increase in household loans has lessened, and the increase in housing prices has moderated in all parts of the country."

  • While the decrease in the rate of growth in household credit and house prices will be welcomed, it will still present a source of concern for the BoK.
