ETF investors may see prices diverge from iNAV. Because buy and sell orders set the market price, an ETF can temporarily trade above or below its underlying value. NAV gives the per-share value based on assets minus liabilities and is calculated once a day. iNAV estimates that value during trading hours. The article explains how premiums, discounts, tracking error, and market-maker quotes help investors assess whether a live price is aligned with the underlying holdings. This applies to investors evaluating ETFs traded in real time during market hours. #ETF #NAV #iNAV #LiquidityProvider
Six months alone is not enough for severance pay. For a medical-care interim settlement, care must be needed for at least six months and expenses must exceed 12.5% of total annual wages. The article also covers home purchases by employees without a home, jeonse or rental deposits, bankruptcy, personal rehabilitation, and wage reductions. It explains when to apply, which supporting documents to prepare, and how the settlement changes later calculations. After settlement, continuous service for future calculations restarts from the settlement date. Employees considering a request before retirement can use these rules to plan immediate costs and future retirement benefits with greater clarity, although employers are not required to approve requests. #SeverancePay #RetirementBenefits #LaborLaw #Workers
Non-metro hospitals gain health reform priority. The fee schedule is undergoing its largest adjustment since relative value scores began in 2001. Annual savings of ₩2.6 trillion from tests and scans, plus ₩1 trillion from the insurance fund, will support outpatient, hospital, emergency, childbirth, and pediatric care. The article maps increases of 4% to 10% across clinic visits and hospital care. Patient bills may vary, but the government says total out-of-pocket medical spending is not intended to increase. Regional priority rates apply in non-metropolitan areas and underserved areas within the Seoul metropolitan area. #HealthInsurance #MedicalFeeReform #EssentialHealthcare #RegionalHealthcare
What It Means to Check the Property Registry Extract Before Signing a Lease for a Rental Apartment
Can renters rely on one property registry? Not for the full risk picture. Existing tenants’ deposits, landlord tax arrears, and resident status in a multi-family home may not all appear there. The article shows how to match the address and unit, verify the owner, and review mortgage liens. It also explains how to compare the home value, security deposit, and prior claims—especially because a mortgage’s maximum amount can differ from the outstanding balance. Checking the latest extract before signing, on contract day, and before final payment helps renters assess deposit recovery risk with greater confidence. This applies to anyone preparing for a lease or monthly rental agreement, with additional checks for multi-unit properties. #PropertyRegistry #RentalLease #SecurityDeposit #JeonseFraudPrevention
When and Who Is Eligible to Receive Dividends? A Complete Guide to the Ex-Dividend Date and Record Date
The ex-dividend date means no current right. Buying on that date generally does not qualify an investor for the current dividend. For domestically listed stocks, T+2 settlement generally means executing the purchase at least two business days before the record date. The guide connects the record date, ex-dividend date, and settlement cycle so investors can plan without confusing a trade date with shareholder confirmation. It also shows where to verify each company’s dividend amount, record date, and payment date: DART, KRX KIND, SEIBro, and company IR materials. This applies to investors considering dividends from domestically listed stocks. #Dividends #DividendStocks #RecordDate #ExDividendDate #StockInvesting
