South Korea's presidential office policy chief told JoongAng Ilbo on Sunday the government has no plans to delist single-stock leveraged ETFs tied to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, saying removal would cause a large market shock. Investor holdings exceed 10 trillion won (about $6.72 billion); the focus, he said, should be on restricting these products' trading impact rather than delisting.
