KB Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:KB ) Q1 2022 Results Conference Call April 22, 2022 3:00 AM ET Company Participants Peter Kweon - Head, IR Scott Y. H. Seo - CFO and Senior Managing Director Han Jung-Ho

The outcome of South Korea’s presidential election is likely to be a positive for the country’s banks, analysts said. Opposition party candidate Yoon Suk-yeol won a tight race by less than 250,000 votes on Thursday, taking around 48.6 percent of the ballots by riding on public anger over the incumbent administration’s practices. Some of those policies had resulted in a sharp spike in housing prices in Seoul. In a research note, Daiwa said the election result will remove regulatory uncertainty, with the new government set to de-regulate the property and banking sectors. Easing Loan-to-Value Restrictions The investment bank cited Yoon’s pledge to ease the loan-to-value ratio to 80 percent for first-time home buyers, compared with the current 40 percent for properties valued at less than KRW900 million, or around $729,000. For non-first home buyers, the loan-to-value ratio is likely to be 70 percent, Daiwa estimated. Daiwa said it also expected the new government would ease the debt-to-service ratio from its current 40 percent for debt of more than KRW200 million.
