What we do
Our Services
In recent years, Korea’s IPO market has softened amid regulatory uncertainty and a slower economy. Early this year, the government overhauled the IPO regime to strengthen market integrity—expanding institutional investors’ mandatory lock-up commitments and significantly increasing underwriters’ accountability. While these changes led to a short-term contraction, including a marked decline in listings in the first half of 2025, they are expected to restore trust and improve market structure over the long term. Entering the second half of 2025, IPO activity has been rebounding alongside the global recovery, led by the IT sector.
Positioned as a public-interest platform, the IPO Support Center serves companies across diverse industries. Led by specialists in IT, software, consumer, and manufacturing, and backed by dedicated teams in financing, M&A, valuation, and tax (inheritance, gifts, and business succession), we provide essential online content and in-person training from the start-up stage through public offering.
We host annual seminars for IPO-ready companies and quarterly, sector-specific private sessions, delivering rich, differentiated insights by industry and company size. For newly listed companies, we also provide up-to-date guidance on evolving regulations and government policies, acting as a trusted partner to help them establish a stable presence and pursue sustained growth in Korea’s capital markets.
By creating an environment optimized for corporate growth, Samjong KPMG’s IPO Support Center builds a successful future together with our clients.
