[THE INVESTOR] Some major securities companies in South Korea will relocate to new offices in Seoul this month either as a result of mergers or pursing new operational plans, industry sources said on Dec. 8.

Samsung Securities, the brokerage arm of South Korea‘s top family-controlled conglomerate, is slated to move from its current headquarters in downtown Seoul to the new office in the so-called Samsung Town in southern Seoul late this month.

Starting Dec. 26, about 1,000 staff members of the brokerage house will begin working at their new offices in the high-rise complex, which also houses Samsung Electronics, the group flagship and the top smartphone vendor in the world, and other Samsung affiliates.

Daishin Securities, with a workforce of around 800, plans to move into a new 26-story main office in central Seoul by Dec. 23 from its current head office in the capital’s financial district of Yeouido.

Mirae Asset Daewoo Securities, formerly KDB Daewoo Securities, that will merge with Mirae Asset Securities under Mirae Asset Financial Group on Dec. 29, plans to complete its relocation to the group‘s headquarters in downtown Seoul soon.
