13.03.202603:00:00UTC+00South Korea’s M2 Money Supply Growth Eases to 7.10% in January 2026

South Korea’s M2 money supply growth slowed slightly at the start of 2026, with the annual expansion rate easing to 7.10% in January from 7.40% in December 2025. The data, updated on 13 March 2026, indicate a modest deceleration in broad liquidity across the economy.

The shift suggests that while monetary conditions remain supportive, the pace of money supply growth is cooling compared with late 2025. M2, which typically includes cash, demand deposits and certain near-money assets, is closely monitored by markets as a gauge of underlying financial conditions and potential pressure on inflation and credit activity.

Investors and analysts are likely to watch upcoming releases to see whether January’s move marks the start of a more sustained moderation in liquidity growth or a temporary adjustment within a still-elevated growth trend.
