Updates on Covered Call ETFs and Retirement Pension Reforms

In the midst of prolonged market stagnation, covered call ETFs with dividend payouts have garnered attention among investors. Samsung Asset Management's 'KODEX 200 Target Weekly Covered Call' ETF has seen a twenty-fold increase in assets this year, attracting substantial net buying from individual investors. Notably, a significant portion of the monthly dividends are tax-exempt, appealing to high-net-worth individuals. This ETF employs a strategy designed to generate weekly income through option premiums while providing stable monthly dividends.
A new opportunity is unfolding for individual investors to purchase venture company stocks using their retirement pensions. The government has revamped regulations to allow retirement pensions to invest in venture and unlisted equities, introducing a policy where some venture investment losses will be covered by government-backed funds. These changes are anticipated to boost both retirement pension contributions and the scope of venture investments, with a new financial product, the 'collective growth investment vehicle,' also set to be introduced.
