From September 1, 2025, the deposit insurance limit is KRW 100 million per person per financial company, including principal and interest.
Deposits, investor deposits and the like are protected, but investment products whose payouts vary with performance, such as funds, and bond-type financial products are not. Check the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation's guidance for the specific products covered.
