Mirae Asset Securitiesについて

Mirae Asset Securities is among Korea's largest brokerage houses by equity capital, formed through the combination of Mirae Asset's securities arm with the former Daewoo Securities. Its operations span retail brokerage and wealth management, investment banking, proprietary trading and overseas business, with a network of foreign offices that is unusually extensive for a Korean broker. The firm is the listed flagship of the founder-led Mirae Asset financial group, which also spans asset management. It earns commissions, interest on customer lending, fees from product distribution and underwriting, and gains on principal investments.

Scale brings a distinct structural profile: as a designated large investment bank the firm operates under capital rules that permit expanded lending and issuance businesses unavailable to smaller peers. Principal investments in overseas real estate and alternative assets introduce balance-sheet risk that investors examine alongside conventional market-cycle sensitivity in brokerage volumes. The company has articulated a standing shareholder-return framework built around buybacks and dividends, a rarity locally. Founder-family control of the unlisted group parent frames the governance discussion.

Mirae Asset was founded in 1997 by Park Hyeon-joo, a former star broker who built Korea's first modern mutual-fund house, and the group added its own securities firm in 1999. The transformative move came in 2016, when it outbid rivals for KDB Daewoo Securities—a storied broker with roots reaching back to 1970—creating Korea's largest brokerage by equity capital under the name Mirae Asset Daewoo. The combined firm reverted to Mirae Asset Securities in 2021. Unlike chaebol-affiliated competitors, it belongs to an independent founder-built financial group whose unlisted parent entities and asset-management affiliates sit outside any industrial conglomerate.

The firm's earnings map is unusually international for a Korean broker: subsidiaries in Vietnam, Indonesia, India, Hong Kong, New York, and London run local brokerage and investment operations, giving it emerging-market retail franchises most peers lack. At home, it has ridden Korean households' embrace of overseas equities, earning commissions and currency-exchange income as retail clients trade American stocks, and it manages one of the industry's largest retirement-pension books, a slow-compounding fee stream. Investment banking spans underwriting and structured finance, while principal investments deploy the firm's own capital into real estate and alternatives. Its scale rivalry is with Korea Investment & Securities, NH Investment & Securities, and Samsung Securities.
