South Korea's Yoon to visit Peru, Brazil on Nov 14-21 for APEC, G20 summits

BY Reuters | ECONOMIC | 11/12/24 01:18 AM EST

SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol will visit Peru and Brazil on Nov. 14-21 to attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) and Group of 20 summits, his office said on Tuesday.

Yoon will attend the APEC conference in Lima from Thursday, where he is likely to hold bilateral talks with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba and Chinese President Xi Jinping and potentially a trilateral meeting with Ishiba and U.S. President Joe Biden, a senior official at Yoon's office said.

Yoon is also scheduled to pay an official visit to Peru on Saturday and hold a summit with President Dina Boluarte, before leaving for Brazil the following day for the G20 gathering.

Seoul was making arrangements for additional bilateral talks with the leaders of Vietnam, Mexico and other countries to be held on the sidelines of both conferences, the official said.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
