From 1998 to 2000, the Corporate Restructuring Committee (CORC), an organisation established by 205 financial institutions pursuant to the Financial Institutions Arrangement for Facilitating Corporate Restructuring, aggressively pursued and conducted corporate restructuring in Korea (workouts), while the Financial Supervisory Commission supervised workouts of financial institutions. Upon the dissolution of the CORC in 2001, the principal creditor banks of the workout companies took the lead in corporate restructuring pursuant to the Corporate Restructuring Promotion Act (CRPA).
