South Korea expands its foreign exchange swap line to $65 billion to stabilize its falling currency.

South Korea's central bank and pension fund have expanded their foreign exchange swap line from $50 billion to $65 billion and extended it by a year until the end of 2025. This move aims to provide liquidity and support the South Korean won, which has dropped to a 15-year low, amid market volatility. The swap line allows the pension fund to borrow from the central bank's reserves for overseas investments, helping to stabilize the currency.
