SOUTH KOREA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
South Korea over the past four decades has demonstrated
incredible growth and global integration to become a high-tech industrialized
economy. In the 1960s, GDP per capita was comparable with levels in the poorer
countries of Africa and Asia. In 2004, South Korea joined the trillion dollar
club of world economies, and is currently the world's 12th largest economy.
Initially, a system of close government and business ties, including directed
credit and import restrictions, made this success possible. The government
promoted the import of raw materials and technology at the expense of consumer
goods, and encouraged savings and investment over consumption. The Asian
financial crisis of 1997-98 exposed longstanding weaknesses in South Korea's
development model including high debt/equity ratios and massive short-term
foreign borrowing. GDP plunged by 6.9% in 1998, and then recovered by 9% in
1999-2000. Korea adopted numerous economic reforms following the crisis,
including greater openness to foreign investment and imports. Growth moderated
to about 4% annually between 2003 and 2007. Korea''s export focused economy was
hit hard by the 2008 global economic downturn, but quickly rebounded in
subsequent years, reaching 6.3% growth in 2010. The US-South Korea Free Trade
Agreement was ratified by both governments in 2011 and went into effect in
March 2012. Throughout 2012 the economy experienced sluggish growth because of
market slowdowns in the United States, China, and the Eurozone. The incoming
administration in 2013, following the December 2012 presidential election, is
likely to face the challenges of balancing heavy reliance on exports with
developing domestic-oriented sectors, such as services. The South Korean
economy''s long term challenges include a rapidly aging population, inflexible
labor market, and heavy reliance on exports - which comprise half of GDP.
