Recently it was announced that Dongbu Group of South Korea are planning to launch a remittance service using the cryptocoin. Aiming to serve the majority of south East Asia including countries such as China and even Vietnam, the remittance project is set to be backed by the technology provided by the Sentbe group.
Amid recent legislation passed in July, cryptocoin remittances in general were made legal under the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act. There were also legal guidelines such as Forex providers being required to register with the Financial Supervisory Service for regulation. Furthermore the Debt to Equity ratio cant exceed 200% under these guidelines to ensure operations under the chaebol’s operations remain sustainable.
