Samsung is one of the best-positioned companies to help the Korean central bank effectively implement the digital won. Samsung’s status as a dominant player in multiple industries within Korea lends itself well to digital won implementation, especially considering the two-tier implementation structure that the Bank of Korea (BOK) seeks to implement. Samsung was not part of the initial bidding process for piloting digital won, but Samsung was able to secure a spot in testing by usage through its Galaxy smartphones. Therefore, Samsung subsidiaries like Samsung SDS, 5G, and its IoT ecosystems can help the BOK effectively implement the digital won.
