The $350 Billion U.S. Investment Bill.

The South Korean parliament is moving at record speed to pass a major investment law aimed at smoothing relations with the United States. In response to U.S. threats of a 25% tariff on South Korean goods, Seoul has pledged to invest $350 billion in the U.S. market. In exchange, the U.S. is expected to lower tariffs on South Korean car exports to 15%.The ruling and opposition parties have agreed to finalize the bill by March 9, 2026, to avoid further trade retaliation from the Trump administration.
