The Bank of Korea (BOK) M2 Money Supply y/y reflects a monthly change in the total amount of the South Korean currency in banknotes and coins circulating in South Korea, as well as funds on bank accounts, in the specified month compared to the same month of the previous year. The M2 Money Supply growth is an indication of increase in the purchasing power of population and is therefore seen as positive for the KRW quotes.
