Last updated: 24 June 2026

This direction establishes a full-cycle policy-finance framework for stabilising Korea’s strategic supply chains in sectors such as batteries, semiconductors, critical minerals, aerospace and defence. The government announced around KRW 50 trillion in policy-finance support in 2025, including KRW 45.8 trillion in low-interest financing and use of the Supply Chain Stabilization Fund. The package supports upstream resource development, domestic production, inventory, import diversification and supplier resilience. It also expands investment from the supply-chain fund and provides preferential financing for firms handling economic-security items.
