KCCI Chairman Orders Reappointment Review Amid Inheritance Tax Data Controversy

KCCI Chairman Orders Reappointment Review Amid Inheritance Tax Data Controversy

The Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) is undergoing significant internal scrutiny following a controversial press release regarding the country's inheritance tax system. KCCI Chairman Chey Tae-won has expressed deep regret over the incident, which was publicly criticized by President Lee Jae Myung as unreliable and misleading. In response, Chey has announced a suspension of all KCCI-hosted events and a reappointment review for all executives. The controversy arose from a February 3 press release that called for reforms in the inheritance tax system, citing data from British consultancy Henley & Partners. The release was condemned by President Lee as 'fake news' aimed at undermining government policy. Following the backlash, KCCI issued a public apology and committed to overhauling its research team. The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources has also initiated an audit of the chamber. Chey emphasized the need for KCCI to rebuild public trust and improve its credibility as an institution.
