Shinhan Investment Securities has acquired a 7.09% strategic stake in 24X Holdings, the SEC-approved US exchange that operates the world's first 23-hour continuous equity trading venue — positioning the Korean broker for direct US market infrastructure access at a moment when Korean retail capital flows into US stocks are accelerating at their fastest pace on record.

24X is the only US exchange with SEC approval for 23-hour daily trading; since launching in October 2025 it has seen rapid growth in both trading volume and settlement value as Asian-timezone investors access US equities in near-real-time
Shinhan Investment signed an MOU with 24X in October 2025 to activate US equity business capabilities; the 7.09% equity stake formalises the partnership into a structural ownership position
Korean retail investors dramatically increased US stock exposure in 2025-2026; domestic brokers with US market infrastructure have a structural advantage in capturing commission, custody, and FX-conversion revenue on those flows
Shinhan Group's investment banking arm now holds a differentiated US market proposition vs KB Securities and Mirae Asset — owning exchange infrastructure rather than simply routing order flow through third-party venues

The 24X stake is a smart infrastructure play: Shinhan secures a piece of the venue itself, not just client access to it. Watch for competing Korean brokerages — KB Securities, Mirae, NH Investment — to respond with equivalent US market access investments in the near term.

[세종=뉴시스]손차민 기자 = 정부가 석유 최고가격제 조정 주기를 현행 2주에서 4주 단위로 늘리기로 했다. 최근 국제유가를 비롯해 주유소 판매가격이 안정세를 보이고 있다는 판단에서다. 최고가격제 조정 주기가 길어지면서 주유소 업계의 재고 운영 부담도 다소 완화될 것으로 기대된다. 22일 산업통상부에 따르면 산업부는 이런 내용을 담아 석유 최고가격제 관련 고시를 개정 예정이다. 현재 고시상 최고가격 조정 주기는 원칙적으로 '1
