The Korea Inclusive Finance Agency found 370 billion won in sleeping money to original rights holders last year.
On the 21st, Seo Geum-won announced that it had found 373.2 billion won (658,000 cases) of dormant deposits to original rights holders in 2025. Seo Geum-won operates a dormant deposit search service that allows original rights holders to conveniently inquire and visit dormant deposits such as deposits, insurance money, and cashier’s checks after the expiration date has been completed.
Seo Geum-won has paid an annual average of 32.3 billion won in dormant deposits over the past three years to protect original rights holders.
Seo Geum-won has provided accumulated 974 billion won since 2008 by carrying out micro-financial support projects for small merchants and social enterprises in traditional markets with operating profits from dormant deposits. In addition, it is also conducting a small insurance project for vulnerable groups such as single-parent families.
“We are making various efforts, including guidance on official notifications, to prevent dormant deposits from being unable to visit them because they do not know whether they have dormant deposits,” said Kim Eun-kyung, head of Seo Geum-won. “This year, we will support those who have difficulty using online, such as the elderly, to more conveniently inquire and visit dormant deposits and insurance.”
