Mirae Asset Group is set to significantly expand its digital asset business. The group aims to grow its digital asset sector to 150 trillion won, leveraging its customer assets totaling 1,500 trillion won, with a goal of achieving profitability by 2027.
On August 26, Park Hyun-joo, Chairman of Mirae Asset Group and Global Strategist (GSO), presented this long-term vision, dubbed 'Mirae Asset 3.0,' at an event for DigitalX employees held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Seoul.
Park emphasized that DigitalX will be a core component of 'Mirae Asset 3.0,' aiming to cultivate the digital asset business as a new growth engine for the group. The strategy involves expanding digital asset-related products and services based on the group's customer assets.
Specifically, the group plans to enhance its product offerings by focusing on four key areas: cryptocurrency, stablecoins, real-world assets (RWA), and security token offerings (STO). It will also promote the digitization of various physical assets, including gold, silver, and electricity.
Park stated, "Our primary goal is to grow the digital asset sector to 150 trillion won based on our customer assets of 1,500 trillion won and achieve profitability by 2027."
The group is also accelerating the establishment of a blockchain-based 'On-chain Finance' ecosystem. This includes discovering new financial products and services utilizing digital assets, as well as enhancing competitiveness in related businesses through self-capital investments.
Park urged employees to possess a forward-looking perspective and to prepare for new changes, encouraging them to be creative talents who continuously seek new possibilities beyond established frameworks.
In the future, Mirae Asset Group plans to build a 'global integrated platform' that combines traditional and digital assets, with a commitment to strictly adhere to relevant regulations and global standards, including anti-money laundering (AML), know your customer (KYC), information protection, and abnormal transaction detection systems (FDS).
