韩国财政部长具润哲周五表示，政府正对近期外汇市场的波动保持高度警惕。
韩国财政部长具润哲周五在首尔政府大楼举行的经济相关部门部长会议上发表了上述言论。具润哲表示：针对金融和外汇市场日益加剧的波动，以及与民生密切相关的消费价格挑战，政府正保持高度警惕。截至周四，韩元兑美元汇率已连续13个交易日维持在1500韩元的心理关口上方。具润哲指出，尽管受到中东战争的影响，韩国的经济复苏仍取得了一定进展。经济合作与发展组织（OECD）将韩国今年的经济增长预期从三个月前的1.7%上调至2.6%。具润哲说：韩国的扩张性财政政策加速了经济增长，进而改善了财政可持续性，形成了一个良性循环。这位财政部长表示，韩国将继续以此为动力，在地区层面进行投资，推进结构性改革，并解决经济差距问题。
