Summary
Korea experienced significant financial distress in the late 1990s along with some of its Asianneighbors. The authorities' experience in handling this crisis and the experience in handling the fallout from the global financial crisis in 2007-08 helped them establish a broad crisis management framework in Korea. Improving and formalizing the framework for crisis management would help preserve and build upon institutional memory. Authorities can consider formally setting up an apex forum for leading the inter-agency cooperation and coordination work on crisis preparedness and crisis management. W
