TL;DR - DART is Korea's primary regulatory disclosure database — KOSPI and KOSDAQ companies must file periodic reports and material-event disclosures here under the Financial Investment Services and Capital Markets Act (FISCMA) - English portal: englishdart.fss.or.kr — free, no account required for browsing - Five essential filing types: 사업보고서 (annual), 반기보고서 (semi-annual), 분기보고서 (quarterly), 주요사항보고서 (material events), 대량보유상황보고서 (5%+ ownership changes) - English translations exist for large-cap KOSPI companies; most KOSDAQ filings are Korean-only — plan accordingly
What Is DART?
DART (Data Analysis, Retrieval and Transfer System) is the electronic disclosure platform operated by South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service (FSS). It serves as Korea's primary regulatory filing repository for FISCMA-mandated disclosures, broadly comparable in function to the U.S. SEC's EDGAR system.
