Mirae Asset Securities Seen First to Top 1 Trillion Won Quarterly Profit

Mirae Asset Securities is likely to become the first brokerage in Korea to enter the 1 trillion won quarterly net profit club in the first quarter of 2026. According to Hankyung, financial data provider FnGuide estimated the firm’s Q1 net profit at 1.0284 trillion won. The combined Q1 net profit of five major domestic brokerages is forecast at 2.8 trillion won, twice the level of a year earlier. The backdrop is a record-high KOSPI and a surge in trading value. Average daily trading value in Q1 reached 66 trillion won, nearly four times year earlier levels, and Mirae Asset’s brokerage commission profit was expected to exceed 400 billion won. Valuation gains from its SpaceX investment were also estimated at about 1 trillion won. Source: hankyung.com
