South Korea‘s finance ministry said Tuesday it will continue to supply sufficient foreign-exchange liquidity to exporters and importers hit by the coronavirus pandemic. AsiaNewsNetwork

The government is fully prepared to help exporters and importers with contingency measures, including a supply of foreign-exchange liquidity and financial support, Kim said.

In a bid to supply more dollars into local markets, the government eased foreign-exchange liquidity rules last month.Earlier in the day, customs data showed South Korea’s exports sank 26.9 percent on-year in the first 20 days of April to $21.7 billion. The data came amid growing concerns that the coronavirus pandemic is denting the exports of Asia‘s fourth-largest economy.

The new coronavirus has disrupted trade and halted production around the globe, with a rising number of countries fully closing their borders.
