[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Kim Jisun] The Financial Supervisory Service has launched an investigation into whether financial firms are demanding excessive fees and interest from owners, exploiting the difficulty of financing real estate project financing (PF) businesses.

According to the financial investment industry on the 6th, the Financial Supervisory Service will conduct an on-site inspection of real estate PF on Daol Investment & Securities the previous day and will conduct an investigation on financial investment firms such as Meritz Securities, Fire and Capital on the 6th. Inspections are expected to be conducted on seven locations, including three securities firms, two insurance companies and two capital firms.

The contractor and implementer, the owners of the real estate PF, have filed complaints, saying financial firms that play the leading role of lenders are overcharging fees and interest rates. The Financial Supervisory Service plans to look at the current situation and see if there are any problems.
