“We will listen to what companies need to say to come up with strategies to respond, and work to minimise any adverse impact on local companies,” Choi Sang-mok said in a policy meeting with foreign and trade ministers to discuss changes expected in the next U.S. administration after Donald Trump’s election victory.

Choi also said the government would closely monitor financial markets and deploy contingency measures should volatility increase in the process of the change in the U.S. administration.
