WASHINGTON — The United States has kept Korea on its list of countries to monitor for their foreign exchange policies, a Treasury Department report showed Thursday.
The department released the updated list in the semiannual "Report to Congress on Macroeconomic and Foreign Exchange Policies of Major Trading Partners of the United States."
The latest monitoring list comprises Korea, China, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Germany, Ireland and Switzerland. All were on the list in the previous report released in January.
Korea was excluded from the list in November 2023 for the first time since April 2016 but was placed back on it in November 2024. It has since remained on the list.
