<li>Kakao Pay's GICS sector movement from IT to FINANCIALS creates flow trading opportunities due to the subsequent transfer between KOSPI 200's sector sub-indices.</li>
<li>An outflow of ₩24.6B or 410K shares will occur. This is 0.6x ADTV. Given that the recent trading volume has further decreased, the actual impact will likely exceed 1.0x DTV.</li>
<li>It will be a concentrated flow in a single trading day by a single ETF, which gives us plenty of reasons for preemptively designing a short position targeting this.</li>
