The country has a modest-sized financial sector for an economy of its sophistication. Taken together, finance and insurance accounted for 5.5% of economic output in 2013, according to the Bank of Korea (BOK, the central bank). The industry employed a somewhat small share, 3.4%, of the total active workforce, according to Statistics Korea.
