What Mirae Asset Securities does

Mirae Asset Securities is South Korea's largest securities firm by market capitalization (W40.2 trillion / ~$27.8 billion) and a publicly traded subsidiary of Mirae Asset Financial Group. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Seoul, the firm employs 3,475 people — the largest securities firm workforce in the country — and operates through 15 overseas subsidiaries and 3 offices spanning the US, UK, Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Australia. The company serves retail investors, high-net-worth individuals, corporate clients, multinational corporations, and Southeast Asian institutional investors, with client assets under management surpassing $1 trillion as of May 2026.

The company's core technology stack centers on the proprietary M-STOCK mobile trading platform, which integrates traditional Korean equities, ETFs, government bonds, and digital assets in a single interface. AI-powered tools — including the Mirae Asset AI Wealth Assistant (which has increased active investment decisions by 15% among users) and PB Desk Assistant (which has reduced consultation preparation time to 25% of prior levels) — support the wealth management operation. Mirae Asset Global Investments, a wholly owned affiliate, manages approximately $2.6 billion in internally managed robo-advisory assets and ranks as the world's 11th-largest ETF manager. The firm also issued Asia's first digital bonds ($70 million) using blockchain technology and operates Korbit (92% owned), one of Korea's major cryptocurrency exchanges.

Mirae Asset Securities generates revenue through six primary streams: brokerage commissions (transaction fees on domestic and overseas equities, which grew 39.6% YoY in 2025), wealth management fees (Sage Beyond VIP platform, recurring advisory fees), investment banking transaction fees (14 ECM deals and 149 bond issuances led in 2025, including joint bookrunning on SpaceX's record $75 billion IPO), ETF management fees, overseas operations (Q3 2025 overseas pretax profit ~$207 million), and digital asset services. 2025 operating revenue reached KRW 22.2 trillion ($16 billion) with net income of KRW 925 billion (178% YoY growth), and Q1 2026 consolidated revenue rose 138.4% YoY to W14.43 trillion. Distribution spans direct digital (M-STOCK self-serve), field sales (branches such as Investment Center Apgujeong WM), and channel partnerships (UOB Kay Hian, Interactive Brokers, Webull for foreign investor omnibus accounts).
