SEOUL: South Korea's finance minister said on Sunday (Mar 12) the country was closely monitoring any impact from the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank on South Korean markets.

The ministry said it would closely monitor the situation despite views from experts that the start-up-focused lender's insolvency would not spill into other financial systems.
