On March 28th, 2007, The Korea Society co-sponsored a Young Professionals Forum titled "Investing in Korea" with the Columbia Business School Asian Alumni Club of New York. Moderated by Professor Ronald Schramm of the Columbia Business school, a panel of experts discussed South Korea's current macro- and microeconomics, perceptions that the country is becoming more hostile to foreign investment and the regulatory and tax frameworks any investors should know before getting into the South Korean market. Panelists included Donald Hanna, global head of emerging markets at Citigroup; John Lee, a director at Lazard Asset Management; Eric Yoon, partner at the law firm of White & Chase and Kaz Parsch, a senior manager of international tax services at Ernst & Young.
