Description:

The Sovereign Perspective: 40 years of Global Investment at the Bank of Korea, KIC and World Bank

Thursday, June 18, 2026 (11:30-13:00)

 

CAIA Korea invites you to a special lecture drawing from over four decades of leadership at the Bank of Korea, Korea Investment Corporation (KIC), and the World Bank Treasury. This session explores the strategic evolution of public asset management through a Sovereign Perspective.

HS Choo reflects on his journey from pioneering the diversification of Korea’s national reserves and strengthening long-term alternative investment strategies at KIC to his recent tenure at the World Bank. There, he oversaw USD 170 billion in assets for global institutions and provided high-level guidance on investment governance and strategy as Chief Investment Advisor. By integrating his deep-rooted expertise in traditional markets with modern standards—highlighted by his 2022 CFA Certificate in ESG Investing—he offers a masterclass on balancing risk, liquidity, and responsibility in an increasingly volatile global landscape.
