The South Korean won traded near 1,523 per dollar, extending gains for a third straight session, as authorities stepped up efforts to stabilize the foreign exchange market. The Bank of Korea and the Financial Supervisory Service launched joint inspections of major foreign-exchange banks for the first time in 14 years, following recent warnings against excessive volatility and speculative trading. Authorities said the inspections would examine whether market participants engaged in activities that destabilized the foreign exchange market or sought to secure improper gains by influencing exchange rates. The currency also continued to recover after sliding to its weakest level since 2009 last week, as traders unwound bearish positions following recent stabilization measures. However, gains were limited by renewed tensions between the US and Iran after Washington launched new strikes against Tehran, boosting demand for the US dollar and pushing oil prices higher.
