On November 26, 2025, South Korea's ruling Democratic Party introduced a bill to create a special fund aimed at financing $350 billion in investments in the United States. This initiative is part of a broader agreement with Washington to lower tariffs on South Korean exports, particularly in the automotive sector. The proposed fund will be financed through income generated from South Korea's foreign assets and government-backed bonds issued in offshore markets. The investment plan includes $250 billion allocated to strategic U.S. industries and $150 billion dedicated to modernizing the American shipbuilding industry. This legislative move follows extensive negotiations between the two countries and is intended to ensure that the investment does not destabilize the South Korean won currency. The Industry Ministry has communicated with U.S. officials to expedite the implementation of the tariff cuts.
