The Bank of Korea (BOK) Manufacturing BSI reflects general business conditions in South Korea from the perspective of industrial company managers. The indicator is calculated based on a survey, during which respondents assess current month conditions, sales and returns, as well as provide outlook for the next month. A higher than expected reading can affect the South Korean won quotes positively.
