South Korea Passes Expanded Extra Budget Before Tariff Deadline

Bloomberg7 hours ago
South Korea's parliament approved a 31.8 trillion won ($23.3 billion) extra budget as new President Lee Jae Myung seeks to revive an economy struggling with weak consumption and mounting trade risks from US tariffs.
The figure is up from the 30.5 trillion won initially proposed by the government, with more money allocated for cash coupon handouts, the Finance Ministry said. Of the overall figure, 10.3 trillion won is set aside to cover revenue shortfalls for this year's existing budget, as taxation income fell due to weak corporate performance and subdued consumer spending.
