S. Korea's foreign-currency bond sales may decrease in 2010: brokerage report

SEOUL, Feb. 9 (Yonhap) -- South Korean companies may sell less foreign-currency bonds this year as the government restricts overseas funding to curb gains in the local currency, a local brokerage report showed Tuesday.

"Although US$20.1 billion of Korea papers come to maturity this year, the issuance volume might be less than the last year due to government restrictions," Louis Shin, an analyst at Woori Investment & Securities Co. said in the report.
