Victims of Homeplus securitization short-term bonds register their personal information. Individual investors in Homeplus Asset-Backed Short-Term Bonds (ABSTB) write their personal information on a victim registration list during a press conference in front of the Financial Supervisory Service in Yeouido, Seoul, South Korea, on March 12, 2025, urging the recognition of ABSTB as trade receivables and demanding priority repayment. They argue that ABSTB is not merely a financial investment product for profit but a transaction based on trust in the credit of Homeplus and credit card companies, giving it the nature of trade receivables. They also raise suspicions of misconduct by MBK Partners, the owner of Homeplus, pointing out that Homeplus continues to issue commercial papers (CP) until just before filing for corporate rehabilitation. MBK Partners (MBKP) is a private equity firm focused on North Asia.
