Ein am 24. September von der Internationalen Abteilung der Bank von Korea veröffentlichter Bericht schätzte den Gesamtbestand an Yen-Carry-Fonds auf 3,4 Billionen US-Dollar, wobei 32,7 Billionen Yen oder 6,5 Prozent als potenzieller Liquidationsbetrag angesehen werden. Die Analyse der Nationalbank ergab, dass der Liquidationsbetrag von Yen-Carry-Trades aufgrund des Rückgangs der Renditen nach der Senkung des US-Leitzinses bis 200 Milliarden US-Dollar erreichen könnte. Dieser Betrag entspricht 6,5 Prozent des gesamten Yen-Carry-Bestands und weckt die Befürchtung, dass er ein Risiko für den globalen Finanzmarkt darstellen könnte. https://www.businesskorea.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=225658
